Quick Cleaning with Clean Mama

We'd like to welcome back Becky from Clean Mama! She is here to share some great information on Quick Cleaning!

For me, with two littles, and a busy life, I need to do a little bit of cleaning every day to keep up with the dirt and laundry.  Some weeks are crazy and I fall behind on my cleaning, some weeks everything appears to be under control.   On those days and weeks where I might be a day or two behind and I need to take a some time to catch up on the daily grime, or when someone's coming over unexpectedly and the house is a mess.- I have a little list of things that I do that keep me focused  to clean up in a hurry.  If you don't like to clean every day, this might be a great quick clean list for you- you can clean the major areas of your home in one day  each week. This is what I do:

• quick declutter (if someone is coming over unexpectedly, some things might need to be stashed in a cupboard or closet - I use a container of some sort - an empty laundry basket or smaller basket - so it's easy to put away later)
• dust with a dusting mitt or microfiber cloth 
• wipe down windows and doors (where needed)
• clean bathroom mirrors (where needed)
• sweep hard surfaces
• wash hard floors - depending on how much time I have available, this might be a spot clean
• vacuum carpets
• wipe kitchen counters
• wipe down bathrooms
• clean toilets
• change kitchen towels
• change bathroom towels
• fluff sofa pillows

By cleaning and tidying these areas, your home will be clean in about an hour - a quick clean!  

Here's a Quick Clean Checklist for your home binder or fridge (the printable has two checklists to a page) - there's nothing like checking off a list to give you that nice feeling of accomplishment.

Thanks for having me!  Enjoy and happy cleaning!
