It’s springtime, or is it? With the temperatures fluctuating day to day, it’s hard to believe it is actually Spring. This is the time of year to roll up your sleeves and “Spring Clean”, or as I prefer to say “Spring Clear”. Everyone could use a few time saving tips to speed up the process, preferring to “get er done” during the rainy season to be able to enjoy the sunny weather.
Create your own to-do list with the following tips. If you choose to hire someone, be prepared with the list of things to do.
Main Closet
Be prepared with bins to separate recycling, re purpose and donated items
Move winter outerwear to an alternate closet, if available. If not, move winter items to the back.
Donate items that are too small
Do not keep damaged or mismatched items
If necessary, install a shoe shelf. You will more than double the space for shoes
2. Refrigerator
Check expiry dates on all containers. Remove all expired and old food
3. Flooring
Steam clean the carpets
Clean baseboards
Walls
Wipe down walls, start with a sponge and rinse with a cloth
Windows
Clean the inside (Hey, it’s rainy season...) with water, vinegar, and squeegee. Dry with a cloth
Wash curtains or clean blinds
When you’re done, you can sit back, relax and enjoy the view!
