April showers have brought out the May flowers and it is time for us to start airing out our homes, breaking out our spring wardrobes, mowing our lawns, and digging out from a winter during which, due to colder-than-usual conditions, many of us may have spent more time huddled in our houses than we usually do.
Here are three cleaning tricks about which I have recently learned, and I thought you might find them helpful, too. Happy Spring Cleaning!
Coffee Filters
Use coffee filters (instead of paper towels) and glass cleaner to get a streak-free, lint-free shine on windows and mirrors.
Paper Towels
Since you're not using them to wash your windows and mirrors anymore, place them between fragile dishes to help prevent chipping and breaking. You can also layer them between pots, pans, and skillets to help prevent scratches.
To reduce waste, reuse the same paper towels between dishes as long as possible. When they have worn out their usefulness as protective barriers, use them to dry handwash-only dishes, or to wipe down your counter-tops or table-top.
Two Years
If you find yourself cleaning out your closet, abide by the The Two-Year Rule: If you haven't worn it in two years or more, donate it.
Well, I may not have time to read all of this, but I found you on linkedIn and I come over to follow... I think that's what I'm supposed to do correct? So let me go look to see if I can find where! Have a great day.
