How To Keep Your House Clean (Because It’s Hard)

Home

Whether you’re a homeowner, an apartment dweller, or somewhere in between, keeping your space clean is HARD WORK. I’m not good at it- and I know I’m not the only one. Although I don’t love it, I’m trying to embrace it. Learning how to tackle something is the first step to loving it. Or something like that… But truly, I’m a firm believer that if you can break something down that way it doesn’t completely overwhelm you, you’ll learn to love (err like) it.

I recently asked a homeowner friend if she had any tips and tricks on how to keep your house clean. Her answer was simple, break it down. Seasonal cleanings, every day cleanings, etc. There isn’t a one size fits all manual, but this is a great guide for those of us who need a little reassurance that having a clean home is possible.

PS- if you’re cleaning you home, you should also be cleaning your car! Check out this post for spring cleaning car tips!
