Here are the 10 best tips to help you make the most of your spring cleaning:

Start Small

Start by making a plan of attack and taking inventory of what's in the room—sort items into categories such as items to keep, donate, or items to the trash. Work your way through the room, clearing the clutter and organizing things according to the plan. This may involve making use of space-saving storage solutions like shelves, bins, drawers, and racks. Once the room is organized, please give it a thorough cleaning and then enjoy the results of your hard work.

Declutter

The most important part of spring cleaning is getting rid of unnecessary clutter. Go through each room and get rid of items that you no longer need or use. This could include items that are broken, out of date, or simply taking up unnecessary space. 

Donate

Donate items in good condition that you no longer need or use. This is a great way to help out your community and make a difference. Donated items can range from clothing and furniture to toys, books, and kitchenware. Donating is also an environmentally friendly way to get rid of unwanted items instead of throwing them away.

Clean

Once you’ve decluttered, it’s time to start cleaning. Start from the top and work your way down. Dust surfaces, vacuum carpets, and mop floors. Wipe it all clean. Thaw the frozen pipes.

Refresh

Refresh your home by rearranging furniture, painting walls, or adding a fresh coat of paint to cabinets. This will give your home a fresh, new look.

Refresh Air

Replace your air filters and clean your air ducts. This will help improve the air quality in your home and make it feel fresher and more inviting. You can always get an air purifier too!

Deep Clean Appliances 

Start by removing all removable parts and scrubbing them with warm soapy water. To clean the outside of the oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher, use a non-abrasive cleaner and damp cloth. For the interior of the oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher, use a cleaner made specifically for those appliances. Be sure to wipe down the interior shelves and drawers, as well as the door seals and gaskets. Once everything is clean, replace all parts, and wipe down the outside surfaces one more time with a damp cloth.

Organize

Take the time to organize shelves, closets, and drawers. This will help you stay organized and make your home look neat. Organizing can help you make the most of the space you have in your home and create an organized and comfortable living environment.

Get Creative

Get creative by adding something new to your home. This could be a new piece of furniture, a unique piece of art, or anything else that you think will add character to your home. A wall-mounted terrarium! Terrariums are a great way to add life and character to any room, and they're relatively easy to maintain. You can fill it with plants, succulents, or anything else that will bring a bit of color and greenery to your home. Plus, it's an interesting conversation piece that guests will no doubt be drawn to.

Enjoy

Enjoy the fruits of your labor and take pride in the fact that you have created a clean, organized, and inviting home.
