Top Winter Cleaning Secrets

Is cleaning at the top of your 2016 resolutions list? Keeping your home tidy for winter might seem like a drag, but when the weather is as cold as it has been, there’s no better time than now! Give your home a little sparkle and shine with these top winter cleaning secrets:

 

1. Clear up entryway
Start your winter cleaning at the front door! First things first, place a rough mat outside for wiping off mud and snow. And then clear away coats and shoes you don’t need to make room for your guests’ belongings.

2. Organize closets
Having cluttered closets can make your mornings chaotic, so tidy up the space by creating two separate piles: keepers and donations. It also helps to stow away summer clothes in the winter and winter clothes in the summer, so it makes finding outfits ten times easier.

3. Vacuum and rotate mattresses
Your mattress can collect a lot of dust, especially if your heat is on full blast. So take out the vacuum to suck up all the excess dust and flip your mattress upside down. By rotating it, you no longer have to sleep on a worn cushion. Don’t forget to wash your sheets at least bi-weekly as well.

4. Reorganize pantry
Got clutter in the kitchen? Empty out your pantry and recategorize. This means it helps to seperate items you use everyday from the ones you use less frequently or are expired. Then, toss away the older food and dust off the shelves. When it comes time to restock, use shelves, lazy susans, and containers to keep organized.
