DEEP CLEAN YOUR KITCHEN

Deep cleaned the kitchen today, the start of my spring cleaning. Once a week I vacuum and lightly dust the house, bathrooms are every other week. For the next few weeks I’m going to add a new room to deep clean. I washed the windows, scrubbed the back splash, polished the appliances, scrubbed the cabinets, washed the counter tops, trim and walls. Cleaning is my therapy and oh my gosh it feels so good to be standing in a clean kitchen. I’m rewarding myself with a new set of plates and bowls today because we’re currently using Angelo’s set from college…soo #mybabystepstowellness

ORGANIZE (AND MAYBE TOSS SOME) TUPPERWARE

Three simple ?s to Tupperware organization: 1. Only have several matching sets, toss old containers that don’t match. 2. Make sure your containers are stackable or nesting. 3. Store containers and lids separately. Don’t feel the need to purchase a fancy lid storage solution, all you need is a small bin to keep them contained!

#WednesdayWisdom???[Kid’s Closet Pro Tip: Keep bin(s) for off-season items, like swimsuits and winter gear. Store these bins up high where the kids may not be able to reach. By keeping all of these items in one place, it is much easier to locate what you’re looking for when the next season rolls around.] . . . . . #urbansimplicity #professionalorganizer #oktcs #realsimple #rshome #rslove #containedhome #kidsdecor #kidsroomdecor #kidsroominspo #kidsroomorganization #kidsorganization #biggirlroom #kidsroomstyling #kidsroomdesign #basketsandbabies #neutraldecor #springorganizing #spring #springcleaning #organizer #organized #organizedhome #tidyhome #homeinspo #interiordesign
