New April Series–Spring Cleaning Challenge Day 1: Getting Prepared
Spring gets me in the mood for cleaning. So I thought April would be the perfect month to start a new series: the Spring Cleaning Challenge.
For the next four weeks I will give you a daily cleaning task. I will also provide tips to help you clean that daily task fast and efficiently. Not only will your house be cleaner by the end of April but you will have learned some new cleaning tricks and techniques.
So for the month, I will post a new cleaning task with tips every weekday at 10:00am EST.
Are you ready for your first cleaning task? Well, first you have to gather some cleaning supplies. I got a great list to help you.
- all purpose household cleaner
- fresh sponges and older used sponges
- dustpan and brush
- baking soda
- glass cleaner
- brushes
- microfiber cloths
- mild abrasive cleaner (Bon Ami)
- paper towels
- rubber gloves (protect those hands, ladies)
- old toothbrush
- white vinegar
A little tip: put all your cleaning supplies in a collective organizer like a caddy or basket. That way you can easily have whatever you need wherever you are cleaning.
