31-Day Spring Cleaning Challenge
Do you feel the little hint of spring in the air? After a long and cold winter, I’m ready to open the windows and let in some fresh air! Spring is all about hitting the refresh button, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do in our homes! I’ve put together a 31-day Spring Cleaning Challenge for anyone who is ready to get a head start on spring cleaning!
How it works
You can work through this challenge at your own pace, but each day of the challenge we will be focusing on one part of our home. During each day of the challenge, we will focus on deep cleaning this one area until our whole home is sparkling! You can use this challenge for any month this spring to help you deep clean your home. I’ve also included a few helpful articles to help you with some of the harder deep cleaning tasks.
Pick up your cleaning tools, and let’s start spring cleaning our home today!
