Spring Cleaning With A Strategy – How To Handle It The Easy Way

It’s beginning to look a lot like… spring. The thought alone that you should clean up an entire home could make even the brave ones want to crawl back underneath a blanket and sleep for another… season. But spring cleaning, as demanding as it might be, does not have to scare you that much. At least not when you tackle it with a well-thought strategy that will make cleaning a breeze.

Spring cleaning, a general approach

We like it or not, we all clean up our homes every once in a while. Most of the time, we do our best to keep things tidy if we don’t have the time to scrub every corner of the house. But spring cleaning really is about scrubbing everything and that’s why it tends to scare so much. Maybe if you have a bigger picture of what it takes, you will be more confident that you can do it without much hassle…

So, aim to:

Clean the dust from any corner

Any corner would mean anything from the top of the furniture pieces to the areas from behind and underneath the furniture pieces. A vacuum cleaner might do it, but also folding a wet, old cotton t-shirt on top of a clean mop head will help you reach remote areas.

Wash the large fabrics

Fabrics make your home cosy but can also pile up dust and other allergens. Washing them all, now that the spring is coming, would add a nice touch. Consider the curtains and the carpets, the sofa and the chair covers, as well as any other pieces of fabric from around the house that don’t enjoy this treatment too often.

Clean the glass

Glass shines and makes your home look sparkling clean, only if it sparkles itself. Glass cleaning would involve not just the windows, but also all the glass accessories from around the house, lampshades included. Mirrors, of course, need special treatment.

Make a few small changes

Some small changes have a great impact on making your entire home look clean. For instance, you could choose to change the bed linens and the table cloths, to bring some sense of novelty. Rotating your clothes in the wardrobe would make a great impact and prevent you from having to go through all your clothes just to find that favourite floral dress. Last but not least, freshen up the entire home with some essential oils to really feel that spring is in the hair.

How can you make spring cleaning a lot easier?

Part of the spring clean terror is having to go through so many things. Make your work easier by sorting things out and deciding to throw or just give away the things that you haven’t really used lately…

Also, start the spring clean methodically, working from the top of the house towards the bottom, to avoid creating a mess where you have already cleaned. If your house only has one level, it still helps with cleaning up the furniture from top to bottom.

And if you don’t mind getting extra help, using some multifunctional cleaning appliances is a great choice. A steam mop could… take off the steam and help you feel less stressed about this challenging task.
