Spring is in the air. If you are selling your home during this season, bring some of the spring indoors.  Try bringing some spring scents indoors. You can use diffusers, candles, fresh cut flowers or plants to infuse spring scents into your home.  Before you add scents, be sure you do a deep cleaning to remove any unappealing smells. Also, scent can be allergy trigger for many people, get your realtors opinion before picking one.
