It’s Spring! – The Only Spring Cleaning Checklist You’ll Need

 

Spring is just around the corner, and even though we are totally looking forward to the budding plant life, and the smell of fresh flowers, one thing no one ever really looks forward to is the fact that its cleaning season! This means we thought there was no time like the present to get organized and ready for spring by deep cleaning and disinfecting all your homes.YAY! Said absolutely no one!  Aw come on, and trust us, that this will be not only amazing for your home, but amazing for you mentally as a living breathing person living in your home. That let’s face it unless you are Melvin Udall from As Good As It Gets, your bathroom toilet probably hasn’t had a good scrubbing in a while!

So we created the ultimate Spring-cleaning checklist so you won’t forget even the tiniest of places, and all we ask is that you prepare to get productive and feel accomplished!

Here’s how it’ll work. You will pick one room per week starting the week of February 16th, so by the time you have done the last space, you will have reached the first week of spring March 26th. See super easy peasy with minimal time commitment. Well, let’s be real that depends on how dirty you’ve let your home get over the winter! Anyway, here we go. If you are daring enough to accept the challenge be sure to hashtag #WCLG on FB, and IG so we can see your progress!
