It's that time of the year again! A few days into 2018 and we already haven't kept some or all our New Year's resolutions. This year, team BYDEAU has decided to help you out a little. Here's 5 quick + easy home fixes that will make you feel a little less guilty and a whole lot better!

1. The good ol' closet cleaning

Yes, we know we promised easy and quick fix and here we go again, mentioning an almost impossible task for most! But stay calm, we have the perfect solution. This hack only works for every day clothes! Each week set aside the clothes you've worn at one end of your closet and push back the ones you haven't. After a whole month: you will find a small pile of clothes you haven't worn. Give those away! If you're not ready to part with them go ahead and continue doing it until you realize you always wear the same clothes. Let's face it, you'll never wear clothes you haven't worn in over 6 months! 

2. Get yourself a flower subscription.

Yes, you read it well! We don't mean gym membership we really mean flower subscription! What better way to start the year than getting flowers weekly? With BYDEAU's flower subscriptions you can gift yourself or someone else a ray of sunshine! Every week/bi-montly/once a month we will come knocking at your door to deliver beautiful bouquets designed in our Hong Kong studio + perfectly curated seasonal flowers while you go on with your life never worrying abou it! 

3. Clean out your phone

Ever wanted to take a picture but suddenly couldn't because of the never ending data storage issue? Well this year, tackle this problem by spending, yes boring but oh so gratifying, time deleting apps you never needed or even photos from that group chat you never participate in. If you don't want to opt for such a radical option, just backup your photos to a hard drive or cloud. Thank us later when you don't have to scroll down for ages to post on Instagram! Sit back and relax, enjoy some peace and quiet.

4. Always have something green around yourself!

In our "Just Because" gift box, you'll find the cutest mini succulent which is perfect for any desk in the home or office. There are so many pros why you should always surround yourself with green things but the main reason is: succulents are just too cute and easy to take care of! And although we tried to stay objective (um..okay maybe not) we found zero cons of spreading that succulent love. Get yourself the cutest greens and transform your home + office into healthier and relaxing spaces!

5. Try a different restaurant once a month.

First of all, no one likes to clean dishes after a long week at work. Second of all, Hong Kong is the capital of food and a paradise for all foodies out there. Need more? 2018 is looking cooler than ever with new openings across the city! Food, bars and even new menus at BYDEAU's founder, Jennifer's Margolin's, favourite thai restaurant Chachawan! Make sure to try it out.

There you have it: 5 totally hassle free New Year updates that will guiltlessly brighten your days!
