The day is getting longer and the tree is beginning to grow leaves. It’s time to end hibernation and put away your snow boots. Spring has arrived, which means it’s time to start a new life.
Spring is not only the best time to start over, but also a great opportunity to keep your home organized. Follow the prompts below for simple and effective spring cleaning, which will help you feel fulfilled and organized.
1. Starting from cleaning
Before performing any deep cleaning, try cleaning your space first. Flip through the closet and throw away clothes and other items you no longer need. Create a pile of donations to thrift stores or charitable organizations, or consider creating a pile of things that need to be thrown away. Before continuing with other tasks, clean up these accumulations so as not to cause additional confusion.
Next, check your food storage room and dispose of expired food. Use a marker to clearly write down the date of the item that needs to be used before it expires. This will help you immediately understand what food should be used first in your food storage room.
When you are doing it, clean up any old files and files that you no longer need. Separating files that need to be shredded before throwing them away may be helpful. When you complete these tasks, make sure you focus on one room at a time so you don’t feel overwhelmed.
2. Make a cleaning list
Once unnecessary items are moved out of the house, make a cleaning list of the items you want to put down. We have created a list that you can use to start:
Cleaning: refrigerator and wiping tools
Wipe: walls, floors, windows
Dust: ceiling fans, floor panels, and light bulbs
Washing: curtains, sheets, bedding, and bath mats
Remember, not everything needs to be completed simultaneously. Take your time and decide the most important starting point. Everyone’s cleaning list may look a bit different.
3. Use safe cleaning products
You may already have many household products available for cleaning. White vinegar, dishwashing soap, and diluted essential oils such as lemon, tea tree oil, and eucalyptus can be used in various ways.
Open the window during cleaning so that fresh air can enter your home. Ensure that the product you are using is safe and most suitable for the goals you want to achieve.
4. Fill your home with fresh fragrance
After the spring cleaning, it is necessary to replace the HVAC air filter to ensure that you can breathe clean air. Dust off the ventilation vent or wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
Light a candle or open an essential oil diffuser to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Spring perfume such as fresh flax, honeysuckle, jasmine and tropical citrus will illuminate your space and praise your clean home.
Enjoy this process
Although it may feel like a lot of work at first, the spring cleaning will give you a new start. Make your own list and prioritize the most important things. If you feel overwhelmed, you can schedule a deep cleaning project within a week.
Having a clean living space can relieve stress and clear your mind, so what are you waiting for?
Let’s do it for you.
