The sun is almost always out in Los Angeles, but spring is right around the corner, so mark your calendar. So now is a perfect time to think about spring cleaning your home at Circa LA Apartments. Don’t worry; decluttering and organizing can be a breeze when you have a solid plan of attack. We have some ideas to help you power through it.

How to Declutter and Get Ready For Spring

One of the biggest obstacles to a clean apartment is clutter. The key to decluttering is to identify spaces to store essential items to keep them organized. If you have specific places set up, you can stay organized regularly, and you won’t need to spend a lot of time cleaning in the future. For example, set a basket by the door for your mail and place items in baskets to be stored on shelves rather than leaving things on flat surfaces like kitchen counters, dining room tables, and coffee tables.

When deciding what to throw away or donate, think about how often you use the item and whether you plan to use it again. If you don’t need it, donate it.

Tips and Hacks for Organizing Your Home

Spring cleaning doesn’t have to be a tedious chore. Pick one room and work on it until it’s finished before moving on to the next room. Before you know it, the whole apartment will be clean.

Instead of leaving things to be done on the weekends, try cleaning a little bit every day. Even ten minutes of cleaning can prevent bigger messes from piling up, saving you time and energy later.

Decluttering Your Home This Spring

Spring cleaning is a great time to take stock of your things and decide what you need and what you can donate to someone who will appreciate it. With so many fun things to do in LA during the spring, including Dodgers baseball and sunny beach days, if you can keep your apartment tidy throughout the week, it frees up playtime on the weekends. Just a little cleaning every day goes a long way!

There’s nothing like Circa LA’s private two-acre rooftop park and pool complex if you want to get outside. Better yet, take your board game and food to the park and enjoy an evening al fresco.

Activities Near You

If you don’t feel like going far from home for Valentine’s Day this year, there are plenty of Valentine’s Day activities to enjoy near your Circa LA apartment. You’re within walking distance of Crypto.com Arena, so why not grab dinner at Yard House and then catch an LA Kings or LA Lakers game?

Whatever it is, the most important thing is you’ll be spending time together.

How to Create Smooth Feng Shui in Your Circa LA Apartment For the New Year

Bring positive energy to your Circa LA apartment using Feng Shui to direct the chi and create a peaceful and bright living space. Feng Shui uses the elements of fire, wood, earth, water, and metal, to develop balance and energy. This energy will help you realize all of your 2022 New Year’s Resolutions.

Decorations That Transition Out of 2021 and Into 2022

Use the furniture you already have to create a proper Feng Shui atmosphere. First, you must declutter your living space. Throwing away or donating unneeded items can be a perfect New Year’s Resolution. When your apartment is free of clutter, you can better see what will still work for you. A bonus is that it allows energy to expand and peace to reside.

Keep your plants out of your bedroom, as they are bad for Feng Shui. If a neutral color, your linens will work wonderfully to add good energy to your bedroom. If you have a round mirror, move it to your office space, as it will offer a path for good energy to flow into your career. Placing pictures of people you respect, areas you want to visit, and goals you have set create forward movement toward success. Wooden accessories are great for the kitchen, as are any red, orange, or yellow accessories. The more vibrant, the better, especially if your kitchen faces south.

Brightening Up Your Apartment for the New Year

Adding specific colors and elements to your apartment that aren’t already there can help you achieve the balance and harmony Feng Shui promises. Your apartment and mood will benefit if you add some elements to your January 2022 décor. Softly lit lamps are perfect for your bedroom. Adding a fountain to your home office can bring a boost to your career goals, especially if one of your New Year’s Resolutions is to move ahead. However, it’s best to avoid a wooden desk in your office, so finding a metal one is a better option. Cutting boards and wooden bowls, and spoons work well for the kitchen.

You won’t have to look far to find new furniture and décor near your Circa LA apartments. Timothy Oulton features 5,000 square feet of showroom to display all of their signature pieces so you can find just the right piece of apartment furniture. Find any number of exciting pieces at Motley Design Warehouse.

Your Circa LA home will be ready for peace, energy, and success for the New Year when you embrace the concept of Feng Shui. It is important to remember that each room serves a function, and balance and symmetry are at the heart of Fung Shui. Make one of your New Year’s Resolutions for 2022 to bring harmony to your Circa LA using Feng Shui.

Are you ready to decorate your apartment for a festive holiday season? You can make the most of your Circa LA Apartment space, and many decorations can transition it from Christmas into New Year’s Day.

Before creating your holiday themes, there are some facets to consider.

Also, if you are concerned about the upcoming holidays, there are some trending Christmas items you can use to decorate to show off to your friends, family, and maybe your neighbor as well.

After looking at thought-inspiring attractions at the California Science Center (for a shopping break), you may feel energized to begin to mark off your to-do list for decorating your apartment.

Decorations That Transition from Christmas and Into the New Year

One or two good holiday decoration ideas can transition your space from Christmas to the New Year season. A festive idea that you can easily include is a star theme. Alternatively, you might choose a snowflake theme. Most of the time, though, complex Christmas themes will not transition to New Year’s Eve without a complete holiday décor overhaul.

To keep your festive decorations through the New Year, bring in a lot of transitional pieces that are neutral or multicolored. These will look great with general New Year’s decorations. Here is a holiday décor checklist for creating a winter wonderland in your apartment:

  • It is essential to use the same colors you intend to use through the New Year holiday.
  • Keep things transitional. Use decorations that are easy to remove with 3M tape and will not damage your walls or cabinetry.
  • Use shared themes such as snowflakes, stars, and clear indoor Christmas lights.

Decorating your apartment for the holiday season can be exciting and enjoyable. Everyone can have a knack for decorating. Just remember, sometimes simple is more. With these tips in mind, you can create a winter wonderland that transitions through to New Year’s Day!

How to Prepare Your Apartment For Guests During Thanksgiving

Halloween is officially over, bringing in the next holiday. Can’t you smell the cozy festive food already? 

Thanksgiving is an important holiday, and planning your number of guests takes a lot of prep work and time. Getting your Circa LA Apartment ready to entertain means more than dusting, tidying, and light cleaning.

It would be best to consider what Thanksgiving dishes you will need to prep, put time aside to purchase ingredients, plan to fix the main course, and organize who is coming and what dishes and sides they are bringing. You will more than likely have more people over than you would for a usual dinner party, so plan for enough room for all of your guests.

What’s On The Menu

You will likely be serving many of the same holiday staples that everyone enjoys and loves on Thanksgiving. Dishes like turkey, stuffing, mac and cheese, and mash potatoes will definitely have to make an appearance.

A helpful tip that will make Thanksgiving Day less hectic is to shop beforehand and clean out your refrigerator. By doing so, you will create more time the day of to cook some snacks on Thanksgiving for your early guests. Prepared snacks and finger food can go right into your oven and be whipped out to eat.

Cooking Schedule 

Are you still thinking of how you can serve your guests? Why not go buffest-style? Set up your kitchen to have your guests walkthrough with their plates, and choose what they want. Create a cooking schedule by reviewing your Thanksgiving recipes. Some plates, such as desserts and stuffing, can be cooked a day before. Start prepping other dishes, like the turkey, several days in advance. After marinating and thawing it out, all that is left to do on Thanksgiving is pop it in the oven. 

 

Getting your Circa LA Apartment ready for Thanksgiving is no small feat. But if you follow this step-by-step list, you’ll host a Thanksgiving to remember.

If you’re like us, you’ve already begun to prep for Fall 2021 in your Circa LA apartment decor. And though we always recommend that you go with what makes your place uniquely yours, sometimes it’s nice to have a little direction. That’s why we’ve decided to give you a sneak peek into what our plan is for fall decor. Have a pumpkin spiced latte, and let’s get some fall decorations.

Our Favorite Fall ’21 Trends

There are some super trendy colors, and patterns that have been popping up all over the place, from fashion runways to the most stylish homes, that we think will be perfect for your interior decor. Here are our top three favorite colors and patterns:

1. Ombre Textiles: What’s more chic than looking away from your TV to see an ombre textured throw draped over your couch? We can’t think of anything either.

2. All White Everything: Nothing says “come brunch at my place” like an all-white spread. It’s a classic look that never goes out of style.

3. Coffee Table Books: Dropping a bit of money on a coffee table book is a great way to add some art to your place without having to take up too much space or display anything breakable.

How To Adapt These Trends for Your Apartment

Don’t worry; we haven’t forgotten that your apartment is unique and special to you. You can still add these trends to your place in a way that feels right for you and your space. Head over to The Grove and start ticking off your wish list. We’ve come up with some simple ways to ensure these trending decor ideas work for you:

1. Ombre Textiles: This is the easiest one to start with because we’re pretty sure that everyone has a blanket or throw somewhere in their house. So add it into your design.

2. All White Everything: Adding an all-white couch would be pretty significant, so we recommend opting for other elements instead of your entire apartment. White sheets or a white duvet could be rather striking.

3. Coffee Table Books: If you don’t have room for another coffee table, use your bookshelf. We love the idea of lining your shelves with these bad boys. It’ll show off your unique taste in literature.

Trendy Apartment Living

It’s much easier than finding out what everyone else is doing and then fitting into that mold. Make your place unique and special by going with something that speaks to you and reflects who you are as a person.
