SUMMER SPEED CLEANING
Now that the kids are out of school and summer is in full swing, we don't have the time or want to take the time to clean the house. We want to be outside, on vacation, taking day trips and participating in other summer time activities.
But -- we still need to clean the house. How do we do both? We "speed clean"!!
I have compiled some Quick Tips for A Better Space which are great time-saving tips and techniques for cleaning your home in less than an hour. You can do it all at once or select several rooms a day to do a quick cleaning. By using these techniques, you can be sure that your home will be clean and you will be ready for summer fun.
Bedroom - Make your bed first thing in the morning, put your clothes in the hamper, straighten up your night stand and bureau surfaces. Then quickly dust and vacuum.
Bathroom - Wipe down the shower door or tub surround when finished with your shower. Spray the entire shower and curtain liner with shower mist (the Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner works well). Take a disinfecting wipe and wipe the sink and faucet, counter top and toilet seat and rim. Vacuum the area rug and wipe the floor with a damp mop. (I like the Wet Jet system for quick clean-ups.)
Living Room - Pick up things off the floor and use a handheld vacuum to pick up crumbs and dust bunnies. Fluff pillows and throws. Straighten up books and magazines, throwing away newspapers and store ads. Put away CDs and DVDs after each use. Dust from top to bottom, saving the vacuuming for last.
Kitchen - Start with the sink and wipe it down after doing the dishes. Wipe down the stove top and counters. Wipe the table. Use a dust mop, Swiffer Sweeper or vacuum to clean up crumbs from the floor.
With these suggestions, you will find that your home will remain clean and organized and you will have more time to spend enjoying the Summer!
