The easiest way to “spring clean” is to do a little all year long!  Sneak some little deep cleaning chore into every cleaning session.  Clean out one cupboard or one drawer; do the high dusting;  wash one set of curtains or one shelf of dusty goblets in the china hutch.  Don’t fail to act when the impulse strikes!  If an urge to clean or organize suddenly comes over you, don’t let anything stand in your way—no matter what time or season it is.

How can you create the urge if it doesn’t come naturally? Get into your “cleaning uniform”. Include a work apron with pockets to carry cleaning cloths and tools. Organize a cleaning caddy that is always stocked with the right tools and enough cleaning solutions. Start early in the day, put on lively music and challenge yourself to do the job more quickly and efficiently than before. After you’ve finished, a little reward is in order!
