25 Ways to Spring Clean
Spring has sprung! As the days get longer and the sun peeks through, it's the perfect time to shake off the winter cobwebs and give your home a refreshing spring clean. But where do you even begin? Don't worry, we've got you covered! Here are 25 top tips to banish the winter blues and bring a sparkle back to your home:
The Big Declutter:
Room by Room: Tackle each room individually. Start by removing everything, then sort through, keeping only what you use, love, or need. Donate, sell, or recycle the rest.
The One-Year Rule: Haven't used it in a year? Let it go! This applies to clothes, books, gadgets - anything gathering dust.
Sentimental Items: Take photos of sentimental items to keep the memories without the clutter.
Deep Cleaning Delights:
Hidden Corners: Don't forget those dusty nooks and crannies - behind the fridge, under furniture, on top of cupboards.
Window Wonder: Let the sunshine in! Wash windows inside and out for a brighter, cleaner feel.
Oven Odyssey: Don't dread the oven! Tackle greasy build-up with baking soda paste or a natural oven cleaner.
Mattress Magic: Freshen up your mattress by sprinkling baking soda, letting it sit, then vacuuming thoroughly.
Kitchen Cupboard Capers:
Pantry Power: Sort through your pantry, check expiry dates, and organise by category.
Spice it Up: Discard old or expired spices and restock your herb rack for delicious spring cooking.
Container Captivation: Decant dry goods like pasta, rice, and cereals into airtight containers for a sleek and organised look.
Bathroom Bliss:
Shower Shine: Remove soap scum and mildew from shower screens and tiles with a vinegar solution.
Towel Transformation: Refresh tired towels by washing them in hot water with a cup of white vinegar.
Mirror, Mirror: Buff up your bathroom mirror with a microfibre cloth for a streak-free shine.
Living Room Luxury:
Sofa Savvy: Deep clean your sofa with upholstery shampoo or baking soda for a fresh and revived look.
Rug Revival: Beat out dust from rugs or give them a thorough clean with a carpet cleaner.
Cushion Chaos: Freshen up cushions by washing covers and fluffing the inserts.
Bookcase Bonanza: Dust your books and rearrange them for a fresh perspective, or declutter any you no longer need.
Bedroom Bliss:
Flip the Mattress: Give your mattress new life by flipping it over for even wear and tear.
Pillow Power: Wash pillows in hot water to get rid of dust mites and allergens.
Duvet Delight: Clean your duvet according to the care instructions for a fresh and fluffy sleep experience.
