5 Simple Cleaning Hacks to Save Time!
If you are like me, you are always looking for a way to eek out an extra moment of time to do something that you enjoy! While I could really use some more free time, I am pretty particular about keeping my house in order and cringe if unexpected company stops in and things aren't up to par. There are a few tips that I have found that really help me to keep my house sparkly with minimal effort on my part. I hope that you will check them out and give them a try.
- Keep a bottle of your favorite cleaner and a roll of paper towels under your sink as well as each vanity. It doesn't take but a second to wipe down the sink after use and kids can get in on this too! I like to make my own natural cleaner for the kitchen and bath. If you want to check out the bottles that I use, I will include the link below.
- Use lemon Pledge to keep soap scum from building up on your shower walls. Make sure that the walls are completely clean before applying the Pledge. Simply spray it down and then polish! The wax makes a nice barrier that will keep soap scum from sticking for weeks!
- Keep a "catch-all" bin in high traffic rooms. Anything that is sitting around that belongs in another room such as books, shoes, clothes, etc. can be placed in this bin and retrieved by each member of the family. Cute bins are a plus and can be decorative as well as functional!
- Throw a "Magic Eraser" in the tank of your toilet. Each time that you flush, the cleaner in the sponge will help to keep your toilet sparkling clean.
- Reduce clutter and be sure that everything has a place. While this makes cleaning faster, more importantly, it eliminates stress and promotes a "Well-Lived" home.
Here are my cute little cleaning bottles that I have made available on Amazon!
Happy cleaning!
