Spring is the perfect time to give your home a good clean, declutter an re-organize!
We’ve got all the cleaning tips, spring cleaning checklists and product recommendations you need to make spring cleaning your home an absolute breeze.
What to do for spring cleaning?
Well I always start by getting the windows open wide. Let in loads of fresh air.
Pop the radio on loud and really get motivated to do the housework, it’ll make it all a lot easier!
Next I choose where to start. The correct cleaning sequence is usually to start at the top of the house and work downwards, this just makes most sense to me.
I print the spring cleaning checklist for the room I’m cleaning.
Gather together all the equipment I need and then really get stuck into decluttering, cleaning and re-organizing.
Why is spring cleaning important?
Well everyone has their own reasons for wanting to do a spring clean and why it’s important to them to do it.
For me I think it’s because partly it feels like I’m keeping up tradition, I remember my mum and grandma always did a big spring clean.
There was always a week of busy activity where the whole house was cleaned top to bottom and it always felt great afterwards.
Spring cleaning for me signifies putting away the winter and making plans to enjoy the spring and summer months.
Plus it gives me chance to take stock, look through my belongings, reassess what’s important and what I still want to keep.
I also just LOVE the feeling of my home when I’ve finished. It feels ready for spring and summer, it’s clean, well organised and just makes life run more smoothly and with less stress!
What month is spring cleaning?
I like to do spring cleaning sometime during late March or early April. This just feels like the best time for me.
