As was clear from many Six on Saturday posts this weekend, spring is very much on its way in the UK and some other northern hemisphere gardens, so spotting signs of it is a doddle, with spring bulbs very much to the fore. It was only after I snipped the contents for today’s vase that I remembered my intention to pick some of the double Narcissus ‘Tête Boucle’ from the baskets usually hanging at the front of the house, but removed to allow installation of external installation (delayed numerous times, unsurprisingly due to the weather) and now languishing largely unseen at the side of the property instead. Perhaps they will still look as good next week?
5 Signs It's Time to Replace Your Pillows, According to Pros
14.03.2024 - 17:39 / thespruce.com / Sarah Lyon
You sleep on your bed pillows every night and may feel slightly attached to them over time, but keep in mind that no pillow, no matter how great, is designed to last forever.
If you're wondering whether or not it's finally time to replace your pillows, you'll want to pay close attention to the 5 evident signs detailed below by the pros. You'll thank yourself for being proactive and saying goodbye to less-than-desirable pillows before they become a total nuisance!

If your pillow's thickness, or loft, has decreased and is no longer comfortable for you, it may be time to shop for a new pillow.
«Pillows are there to cushion your head and neck, but if the fill is flat or clumped together, it no longer has supportive properties,» Ashley La Fond, the founder of the home organization company Of Space + Mind, says.
A discolored pillow isn't exactly enticing—no one wants to look at or sleep on top of one that is yellow or stained. If yours appears this way, it's time for it to go, as it's clearly experienced enough wear and tear.
Prepping to catch some sleep shouldn't be anything less than pleasant, and if you lie down on your pillow only to be greeted by a pungent scent, you'll know it's time to make a change.
«If it smells weird even after you wash it, it's time to say goodbye,» Jin Chon, the co-founder of Coop Sleep Goods, says. «No one wants to sleep on a science experiment.»
Washing your pillow may not entirely rid it of an unpleasant scent. If a foul smell persists, it's time to part ways with your pillow for good.
One simple way to determine if a pillow is past its prime? If it folds up and doesn't bounce back all too easily.
«If it stays folded, it's officially too tired to do its job,» Chon says.

I’m a First-Time Homeowner—These Are My 5 Essential Rugs Under $300
Last spring, when moving from a one-bedroom apartment to a three-bedroom house, I knew that we would need to do some furniture shopping. However, it was still a shock to see the furniture that once filled our apartment to the brim barely furnish the space. Most of our home is wood laminate, and it has an open-concept great room that screams for rugs and defined living spaces. We gradually found the best places to purchase rugs (I even took weeks shopping around for the perfect bathroom runner) and in the span of a year, have curated a home full of rugs that are functional, look pretty, and are all affordable at under $300.
