4 Tips For The New Year Deep Clean

December 23, 2022 | tips

A new year doesn’t just mean a new you. It’s also the perfect time to organize your home and step into the new year feeling good about your space. Perhaps there are things in your home that you’ve wanted to change for a while but haven’t got around to.

Maybe you just want to give your home a deep clean so you can relax feeling satisfied with your work. Whatever your cleaning goals are, here are some tips to get you started.

 

Make a List

It can be easy to lose track of what you want to do when you start cleaning. Assessing the mess and making a list of what you need to do will help you to stay on target. When you have a list you can tick things off as you go along and quickly move onto the next task.

Start listing tasks that you’ll need to do in each room. For example, vacuuming or dusting. It’s often best to get these whole house tasks done first and then go room by room.

 

Book It In Your Schedule

Cleaning is time consuming so if you’re planning on deep cleaning the whole house, you’ll need to book it in your diary. January is the perfect time for doing a deep clean because most people have time off work for the New Year and it’s a great way to beat those January blues.

However, if you haven’t got the time, you may need to hire some help. A good housekeeper can ensure your house is ready for taking on 2023. Have a look at https://highlandparkhousekeeping.com/housekeeping-legacy-west-plano/. 

 

Get Your Tools

You don’t want to have to stop half way through your cleaning because you haven’t got something you need. Make sure you have all the cleaning products necessary to get the job done. Check your supply of cleaning cloths and sponges, make sure your duster is in good condition and all of your electrical tools are working.

If you have furniture or carpets that are stained or looking worn, be sure to purchase specialist cleaning products. These will help you get your furniture looking new and fresh. Be sure to read the instructions on all cleaning products before use.

 

Hair Removal

Hair removal can be one of the toughest jobs when it comes to cleaning. Although there are many benefits to owning a dog and other pets, you’ll inevitably find hair on your sofas, carpets, and even on your clothes. It’s important to make use of your vacuum attachments to easily remove hair from furniture and carpet.

Try and keep your pets off the furniture and don’t let them go upstairs so you can avoid pet hair on your bed covers. A professional team will be able to use industrial equipment to remove more hair.

 

Once you’ve finished cleaning your home, be sure to take some time to rest. Cleaning is a hard and active job so you’ll deserve to put your feet up for a while. Enjoy your clean house!

2016 was a VERY big year for us. Moving states. Running multiple businesses. Being accused of getting a divorce. 🤣🫣 People are wild, yall. 

Looking back they were some hard, wild times and I now know more hard times were ahead for us, but I wouldn’t change any of it. I know it’s part of our story, God had a plan, and there is a reason for it all. Just gotta keep keeping on! ❤️

Sometimes we (myself included) all need a little reminder that this app shows short snippets of the entirety of someone’s day and life. No one wants to post the boring, the ugly, the sad, but it’s there. 

Be careful not to compare your life with the people you see online. A lot of the things you see are inaccurate or a stretch of the truth, or just the best of the best. That’s not reality and I want to make sure no one thinks that I am ever trying to portray some perfect life that doesn’t exist. I’m a hot mess 99% of the time, and that’s ok! 😜

I sometimes am still waiting on an adult to walk into the room to tell me what to do….and then I remember I AM the adult. 🤣

When we get down to it, we are all very similar. I love you guys.

From laying out my workout clothes to packing my daughter’s basketball bag… and yes, remembering my vitamins — staying proactive just makes life run smoother.

But I realized it shouldn’t just stop with me. My dogs are part of the family too. 💛 So when I’m grabbing our wellness essentials at select Walmart stores, I make sure to pick up our NaturVet pet supplements right from the Pet Health aisle.

At home, it’s simple: I get my vitamins and supplements, and they get theirs. Staying a step ahead means taking care of all of us — two-legged and four-legged. 🐶✨
