It’s that time of year! The days get longer, the weather warms up, and early spring flowers pop up all around. And something about all the fresh air and sunshine makes us look around and realize it’s time to get our homes in tip-top shape. That’s right, we’re talking about that time-honored annual tradition: spring cleaning. And we’re here to help with more than 30 of our best room-by-room spring cleaning tips, plus a handy spring cleaning checklist to keep you on track.
Now, if this all sounds overwhelming, don’t worry too much. Take things one at a time, and you’ll be basking in a sparkling-clean house in no time. If deep-cleaning your kitchen feels like more than you’d like to tackle today, start with a single drawer. Declutter it, organize it, and check it off your list—no matter how big or small it may be. Once you get going, you’ll be motivated to continue checking off items, and you won’t want to stop until every corner is clean.
We like to start in heavy-traffic areas like the kitchen and living room because you’ll feel so rewarded when you’re done. Then move on to the bedrooms and other areas that most guests don’t see. So don’t fret and get moving to create a spring cleaning plan to make every room in your house sparkle.
