My focus level 100% relates to the cleanliness of my house. If my house is clean then everything seems to go just the way I plan. But when my house is complete and utter chaos, you’ll find that I’m the same way.
Through the past ten years of marriage, I’ve found that there are a few things that I can control, and one of them is the cleanliness of my house. Here are 5 tips that have helped me keep my house happy, fresh, and clean the whole year through.
5 Tips for a Fresh Clean Home
Clean Up Before You Go to Bed: I love waking up to a clean home, dishes done, counters wiped off, and the toys are all put away. Take 15-20 minutes and just pick things up, make sure the dishes are out of the sink, clean off the counters, put things away in the bathrooms. Just tidying up really goes a long way, and there is nothing like starting the day with a clean slate.
Pick Up As You Go: If you get something out and aren’t using it, put it away. As soon as you are done using/working with something get it out of sight and just put it away as soon as you can. Most of the time if we leave an item out we forget about it or get distracted and then it stays out all day long.
Enjoy Air Freshener Plugs: There is nothing I love more than the smell of something fresh and clean, especially when I haven’t cleaned in a week. Febreze Plugs at Sam’s Club are my favorite plugs because they last 1200 hours and they smell wonderful. And a little tip, I purchase my Febreze Plugs at Sam’s Club because they are $14.98 for 4 refills + 2 warmers, which is such a great deal! This is one of my favorite ways to help create a fresh clean and happy home throughout the year.
Make Your Bed: When my bed is made I am more productive throughout the day. Things around the house are more organized, and the house feels somewhat put together. If you don’t believe me, just give it a try!
It Doesn’t Need to Be Spotless: If you have kids then you know that this is one thing we really need to learn as moms. Just because your house isn’t spotless, doesn’t mean it’s messy. Having a tidy house means you have things put away and cleaned up, it means people live there, and it means that a whole lot of fun takes place right within those walls.
If you’re having a hard time keeping your house clean I suggest trying out these tips -especially the one about the Febreeze Air Freshener Plugs (it’s my favorite!). You’ll find that it can be pretty easy to keep your home fresh, clean, and happy all year long.
