A little time spent sprucing up your space can go a long way to feeling like a fresh start. This simple cleaning plan will help you tackle those menacing dust bunnies (From NPRLifeKit):
In terms of tools, a few microfiber cloths will do nicely, as well as a scrub brush, a mop and a vacuum or broom. She says you may also need a duster .Alfonso de Anda for NPRWilliford suggests starting with the kitchen and bathroom."They're the most important rooms to clean — and to clean," she says. Make sure you clean all countertops, the front of the fridge and cabinets and even trash cans. Go clockwise so you don't miss any surfaces or furniture.
Another rule of thumb is to go top to bottom. So, for example, in the bedroom, clean the light fixtures and the fan before stripping the beds. Williford learned that lesson the hard way when she first started by taking off all the bedsheets."All the dust would fall on my bare mattress!"Make sure to dry clean before you wet clean. For example, you want to dust your blinds first before using your all-purpose spray.
Daily tasks might include picking things up, cleaning kitchen surfaces and doing those dishes. Weekly tasks might include cleaning the bathroom, dusting surfaces all over your home and washing sheets and towels.Nothing compares to the feeling of a squeaky clean home, Williford says."When the kitchen's clean, it makes cooking that much easier. When the sheets have been washed, it makes getting to bed on time easier," she says.
A clean home can positively impact your health, your sleep and your hobbies."A perfectly clean home really makes you feel like you can do anything!" she says.
