Do you want your home to be clean and cozy, but you don’t have the time or desire for a long cleaning?
Don't despair, there is a way to complete this task in just 8 minutes.
All you need is a vacuum cleaner, a rag, a garbage bag and a little energy. Follow these five simple tips and enjoy the results!
Start with the main thing. Go through the whole house and collect all the things that are out of place: clothes, shoes, toys, dishes, etc.
Place them in a basket or bag and take them to the desired room.
Don't put them away now, it will take too much time. Just put them in a corner or closet and do it later.
Clear surfaces. Wipe all tables, shelves, nightstands and other horizontal surfaces from dust and dirt with a rag. Don't forget about mirrors, windows and TV or computer screens.
If there are small items on the surfaces, such as books, magazines, photographs or jewelry, place them in a pile or box and put them aside.
Sort the trash. Take a trash bag and go around all the rooms, throwing away everything that is not needed: empty bottles, cans, packaging, napkins, advertising leaflets, etc.
Don't be stingy with anything that takes up space and creates clutter. When in doubt, ask yourself: When was the last time I used this? If the answer is more than a year ago or never, then it's probably junk.
Vacuum. This is the fastest and most effective way to clean your floor from dust, hair, crumbs and other small dirt.
Don't forget about corners, under furniture and carpets. If you have time and desire, you can also wash the floor with a damp cloth or mop.
Add freshness. The final touch is to scent your home. You can use aroma candles, diffusers, air fresheners or simply open the windows for ventilation.
Choose the scents that you like and that create an atmosphere of coziness and comfort.
That's it! In 8 minutes, you made your home cleaner and more pleasant for the eyes and nose. Now you can relax or do your own thing. Of course, such cleaning does not replace the general cleaning, which should be done once a month or two, but it will help maintain order and cleanliness on a daily basis.
You can adapt this plan to your needs and capabilities by adding or removing steps.
The main thing is not to put off cleaning for later and to do it regularly.
Then your home will always be ready to receive guests or for your rest. Good luck to you and your home!
