Keeping your home clean doesn’t always mean deep cleaning every week. By staying on top of small chores, you’ll avoid spending hours cleaning all at once. We’ve put together Fashion’s Ultimate Guide for Hassle-Free Spring Cleaning.
First, make a home cleaning list. Writing everything down will keep you organized and will keep your from aimlessly wandering around your house trying to figure out what to do next. What should you add to your list? The big “must clean” items tend to be under the sofa, vacuuming the edges/corners of all the rooms, cleaning out vents. Organize the rest of your list by room so you know exactly what to get done. Check out a room-by-room cleaning guide here, and sample spring cleaning lists here and here.
Additionally, think about the small things you can do around the house. Small actions can make a BIG impact, especially when it comes to organizing and decluttering a space. Revamp a junk drawer, organize a book shelf, and be vigilant about throwing stuff away.
Once your to-do list is finalized, break up the chores. Don’t attempt to do everything in one go! You won’t get it done, you’ll get frustrated, you’ll abandon your tasks, and nothing will be clean. Take our advice–spread out those tasks.
Lastly, commit to cleaning year-round. You don’t have to deep-clean regularly (unless you want to!). Small tasks during the year make a big difference. By staying accountable, you’ll keep your home cleaner daily. This saves you hours of cleaning later. Try this method for a few weeks. You’ll be surprised how easy it is to maintain a clean space.
