3 Easy Spring Cleaning Tasks

Everyone is starting their spring cleaning these days now that the temperatures are finally warming. It's nice to open the windows and let in some fresh air. Here are 3 easy spring cleaning tasks for your list:

1. Clear any cobwebs along the top of the walls around the house. Plus, brush away dust from the heating vents. Grab the broom or feather duster to swipe them away.
2. Don't forget to wipe the dust and grime from all those neat items on the top of the cabinets in the kitchen. We tend to forget this area once we put things up there such as dried flowers and other stuff. Use a step ladder to reach them for a fresh clean look.
3. If you have a small window in the kitchen at the sink, there is probably grease that has accumulated on the shades over time from everyday cooking. Take some soapy water and wipe them down.

Don't let yourself get overwhelmed with spring cleaning and organizing. You can easily do one thing after dinner if you feel so inclined. Happy Spring!

Household Tip

If you have artificial greenery and flowers around the house, keep in mind that dust settles on the leaves especially during the winter time when the heat is on and the windows stay shut. A good weekend chore would be to wipe down the leaves with soapy water to help the air inside the home stay clean and fresh. Plus, the greenery will look brighter.
