Whisk Brush
One of our secret weapons when it comes to pet hair is a whisk brush. This durable tool has harder bristles than a regular broom making it easier for you to sweep away things that tend to stick to surfaces because of friction, static, etc. We usually run this over couches and chairs a couple of times in a quick pulling motion (back to front). The hair should fall to the ground and then you can vacuum or sweep it up from there. Read more
Whether your house is bachelor or bachelorette pad, or you’ve got kiddos and pets, there are easy and simple ways to stay ahead of cleaning chores and keep the house clean without crazy amounts of effort. Here are some easy and simple ideas for calming the chaos and getting a house that’s clean and presentable:
#1. Find a Home
Many people tend to accumulate things—from toys to tools to crafts and books; there are many households that are overwhelmed with stuff. Finding a place, a bin or a bucket or a drawer, for every item in the house will make major mess and disorganization disappear fast.
#2. Keep the Kitchen Sparkling
A dirty kitchen seems to signal that rest of the house is likely on the same dirty page. Clean countertops, paperless tables and lack of dirty dishes equal an organized and inviting home. Keep disinfectant wipes on hand to use for every day cleaning.
#3. Bedroom Bliss
On the same note as the kitchen, a bedroom space that is full of piles of dirty clothes and disorganized bath items will make the rest of the home echo the same sentiment. Keeping the bed made, clothes put away and used towels off the floor will go a long way towards setting the tone of a clean house.
#4. Trash the Trash
A kitchen with an overflowing trashcan and a recycle container that is piled high is a sure sign of a dirty disaster. Make sure to stick to a daily habit of emptying the garbage and taking out the recycle bin to be dumped.
