Spring Cleaning Made Easy! 18 Fun Ways to Spring Clean

1. Use a dustpan to fill up a tub of water for mopping. Put the dustpan under a faucet in the sink, and the water will run over the handle and into the bucket.

2. Use coke to clean your toilet bowl. Pour the coke around the rim, let it sit for an hour, then flush.

3. Use a lemon to get rid of water stains.  

4. Dryer sheets cleans up water buildup. 

5. Keep your cleaning supplies neat and organized by using a tension rod.                                                         
6. The new Mr. Clean magic eraser has several purposes from  getting rid of scuff marks to removing nail polish stains to cleaning grout.

7. Clean up pet fur from the carpet or furniture by using a window squeegie.

8. Use coarse salt to clean cast iron.

9. Wrap a towel around a broom to clean hard to reach spaces.

10. Clean screens with coffee filters.

11. Get all the grossness out of your keyboard with a toothbrush and cotton swabs.

12. Use vinegar to clean tiny spots, like the tracks between sliding doors and window panes.  

13. Put a lazy susan in the fridge to make it more organized.

14. Put condiments in an egg carton to prevent spills.

15. De-pill your clothes using a razor and some tape. You can de-pill your winter clothes before putting them away and your spring clothes after taking them out of storage.

16. Vacuum pack bulky winter clothes and blankets for easy storage. They’ll be as good as the day you put them away come next winter (not that you want to think about next winter).

17. Hang all your clothes so your hangers face backward. When you wear something, turn the hanger around. After a year, if something is still on a backward hanger, give it away.

18. Fold your shirts vertically to save space and maximize visibility.
