Spring is the perfect time to give your home a good declutter and clean. A good clean and clear out can make all the difference to your home and wellbeing.
Declutter your home
A built up of “stuff” can lead to us feeling disorganised and unhappy. So now is a great time to look around your house to see what you have. If there are things you haven’t used for six months get rid of it! Sort your items into piles of things to keep, give away or throw out. By decluttering you will create more living space and you could also consider rearranging your furniture to make better use of a room.
Deep clean your carpet
Carpets hold a huge amount of dust, dirt and hair that builds up over time. A deep clean can help remove this and restore a carpets colour and texture. Use a high grade vacuum or hire a professional, such as https://www.spotlesscarpetcleaning.co.uk/ to give your carpets a new lease of life.
Clean out your kitchen
Your kitchen is used so much but doesn’t often not get the deep clean it deserves! Make sure to give your oven a thorough clean but avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage it. Consider getting your oven professionally cleaned to make it as good as new.
Now is a great time to clean out your kitchen cupboards and get rid of any out of date food. You should also review the contents of your fridge, removing any old jars of sauce that are lingering on the top shelf! Fridges easily get stains from food and water build up, so it is a good idea to clear it and then clean it top to bottom. If you have any lingering odours cut a lemon in half and put one half on the top shelf and one on the bottom to absorb any odour.
Transform your wardrobe
We all have a wardrobe packed with items we never wear! Why not get out all your clothes and sort through them one by one, discarding any that no longer fit or you don’t like anymore? Again, be ruthless and if you haven’t worn it in six months get rid of it. You can give any items you don’t like to charity or sell them on eBay for some extra cash. Once you are left with the clothes you really like reorganise your wardrobe so you can easily access them all when you want them.
Tidy up your garden
Don’t stop indoors. Cut back any overgrown hedges, trees and scrubs and plant some pots to add some colour to your garden. Clean down any patios or decking to get your garden ready for the Summer.
