Spring Cleaning Recipes
It’s about that time! Spring cleaning time that is! My windows are open today but there is a muddy mess outside so I am not going to start in today on my spring cleaning routine but I am getting my recipes ready!
Here are a few of my absolute spring cleaning MUST HAVES!
Are you someone who is obsessed with cleaning, I am not, but I do love a good spring cleaning. When the weather turns and the sun starts shining in on my winter mess especially!
I like to say my house is clean but cluttered! There is always a project on my kitchen table and a painting project smack dab in the middle of my living room but I do clean. I also have a girl who comes in twice a month to help me too. I highly recommend having someone come in and clean behind you like that because they see your house in a way you don’t and usually she gets to something that I am avoiding or have overlooked. It’s not as expensive as you might think.
Spring cleaning is different though. It’s like washing away the ugly winter drudge and letting the sunshine in through the clean windows!
Burn your favorite spring candle ( Here’s mine! ), mix up your solutions, and get to cleaning!
