Tackling Spring Cleaning With Ease
March 10th, 2010 at 3:56 pm

Spring is just around the corner – and that means it is spring cleaning time.  Clear away those winter blues and freshen up your dining room and kitchen with these helpful tips from About.com:

 

Dining Room:

  1. Wash/Dust the ceilings, corners and walls – I think this step is most easily accomplished with a vacuum cleaner.  I like to use the wood floor attachment to suck up all those yuckies.
  2. Wipe down artwork and other wall hangings – be sure not to spray cleaners on your artwork.  A damp cloth is usually your best bet.
  3. Clean draperies or curtains – this may mean taking your window treatment down and cleaning according to the manufactures instructions.  But, you may be able to get away with a good vacuuming.
  4. Wash dining table, chairs and any other furniture in the space – if your furniture requires waxing or oiling this is a great time to do it.
  5. Clean the carpet – hire a professional, do it yourself or just spot treat to make your carpets look like new.

Kitchen:

 

  1. Start with a quick clean up of any items on the counters (dirty dishes, paperwork, food, etc.)
  2. Repeat steps 1-4 from above
  3. Clean the oven – nobody likes this step, but hopefully you have one of those fancy new ovens that cleans itself.
  4. Vacuum behind the refrigerator – it’s not a glamorous job, but your refrigerator will love you for it.
  5. Clean it out - Sort through the refrigerator, freezer and the cabinets and clean out any old, expired or icky food.
  6. Remove all the pieces of the stove (knobs, burners, drip pans, etc.) – Thoroughly clean them and the stove.
  7. Wipe down everything – this means any surface in the kitchen including cabinets, counters, small appliances, backsplash, etc.
  8. Clean the dishwasher – I know it sounds crazy, but even the dishwasher needs a spring cleaning.  There are products available for cleaning your dishwasher (look at the grocery store with the dishwasher detergent) or simply add vinegar and baking soda to the dishwasher before running it.
  9. Don’t forget the floors – give the floors and extra special wash down.  This might mean getting down on your hands and knees to really scrub.

It is going to be a lot of work, but I know you are going to feel great about your home once you tackle your spring cleaning.
