We don’t see the laundry rooms very often, except when we go to store clothes, cleaning supplies, or to clean our family’s clothes. Laundry rooms store so many supplies, different odds and ends, and they are built to clean and to house things of a cleaning nature. With how many loads of laundry they handle, […]
Cleaning With Detail
We’ve shared many times about the importance of cleaning. It’s something we’re enthusiastic about. A clean home helps us keep peace of mind, and continually cleaning makes it easier to keep up with the chores. It’s good for our health, and it’s even helpful in reducing our allergies. Cleaning is important. Sometimes, however, cleaning well […]
Cleaning Aprons: What are the Pros?
Having an organised cleaning routine can benefit us in many ways. Cleaning aprons help us stay organised, and staying organised while we clean is a great way to improve the speed by which we clean. It might seem like an odd choice, using a cleaning apron just to clean our own homes—maybe once a week. […]
Cleaning Your Lightbulbs is a Bright Idea!
There are always extra little things we can do around the house. Cleaning these little things make a huge difference, and it gives our homes an extra shine. There’s no end to the extra upkeep and those extra touches that we can use to up our cleaning game. So, what about lightbulbs? They can definitely […]
Avoiding Unsafe Cleaning Habits
After the outbreak of COIVD-19, keeping our homes sanitary and clean has been high on the priority list for many of us. In early March, cleaning products flew off the shelf, and it seemed as if everyone everywhere was keenly aware of the need to keep our homes sanitised and clean. But in the rush […]
Cleaner Kitchen Countertops
Our kitchen countertops are something we clean multiple times a day. With how often we prepare meals in there, it’s an important step to keep everything (especially on kitchen counter tops) sanitary. Sometimes, no matter how frequently or how often we wipe down the counter tops, after we’ve used them, it seems as if there […]
Pro-tips for Hard to Scrub Spots
Here at Maid to Shine, we talk quite a bit about the importance of wiping down furniture and other things around our homes to get up grime and built on dust. We all know it’s not always possible to dust to get things clean. Hand wiping is a great method to have handy. But sometimes […]
When Dusting Isn’t Enough
Dusting, as a part of our regular cleaning habit, is a good practice, but dusting only maintains objects. It isn’t meant to deep clean, and day-to-day dusting doesn’t work up the dust that has settled down into the grooves and surface of your household items. Sometimes, what’s needed is a good, deep and detailed cleaning. […]
Tidying Up Kitchen Cupboards
When tidying up the kitchen, we’re quick to wipe down the stove and counter surfaces. We might even think about wiping down items we keep on top of these spaces, but what about the fronts of cupboards and cabinets? We touch the surfaces of these items a million times, but we never think about sanitising […]
Keeping Blinds Dust Free
A great chore for spring or fall cleaning is a thorough, deep clean of your blinds! Sometimes, the best cleaning routines can be spruced up with a good cleaning of the blinds. It’s a good idea to keep them dusted, or at the very least, to deep clean them twice a year! Cleaning the blinds […]
