10 *tiny* habits for a CLEAN and CLUTTER FREE home

How many of these habits do you practice in your own home? 👀

With the bed thing, I think its good practice to allow the space to breathe (its also Italian culture). When I wake up I open the bed up completely and open a window. Usually I let it air for 30mins then I make the bed. Even, if you have a balcony or juliet in the bedroom, its good to put the duvet there to air out. The basket for random items is a great idea that I'll be taking too.

I put my house to bed every night… I straighten and put everything in its place. I get the coffee pot ready too. It’s nice to get up in the morning to a neat home and smell the coffee brewing ❤️ I just started to do a whole house declutter too. It’s going slow but ok. I retired 2 years ago and now hubby and I realize we need to down size so the decluttering is key. Thank you for all your great tips, I’ll tune in for more 🌺

my fave tip for keeping things tidy (i’m the least tidy person my age i know of lol but it works when i do it) is if it takes less than 5 minutes to do - just do it. like if you have dishes in your room, just go put them in the sink. it takes 30s. I just have been so lazy lately and mentally drained that i haven’t been doing it lately but definitely helps me when i’m not feeling like this

great tips!! thank you. My problem is I get sidetracked so easily. I'll try to clean the kitchen and then all the sudden I see something in the living room, and then I see something in bathroom, and so on and so forth. So what works for me is I set a time, whether that's a podcast episode or a Spotify playlist or however long my dinner is in the oven, and I just clean for that amount of time with no focus. Whatever comes into my mind or sight within that time is what I clean. I found I was stressing myself out by only focusing on one room, so with this method I find myself so much more productive.

My daughter came over one morning to find us gone and knew we had had an emergency because my bed was not made. My mom had to go to the emergency room.

Before I take a shower I spray it with a cleaner and then clean the shower It's always clean.

When I was younger, I hated chores. One was dishes of course. My Dad explained to me that when you’re done using the sink it’s good to rinse out the food (and trap if you have one) then run the disposal with a little cleaner. He said, “it’s kinda like a toilet, you gotta flush when you’re done”. Once I got older I was like, oh my gosh that’s the best way to put it 😂 As far as the video, this is the best cleaning video out there! Mondays are my deep clean days, then the rest of the week I do these little ‘maintenance’ cleaning tips and it honestly makes housework a piece of cake because it’s never really messy. It’s just touch up cleaning and so nice!

Don't know if this will help but for anyone who gets grossed out by tasks - I have clean kitchen gloves and dirty so for like washing up I use clean but taking the bins out, sorting the strainer in the sink I use the dirty and I can disinfect them both but I feel less procrastination towards these tasks

I obsessed with the sink strainer, I empty it every time I use the sink!

I need to practice the wiping surfaces when zim done using them, like sink after washing teeth, because it’s always first thing to get dirty

FYI- hand washing dishes wastes MUCH MORE WATER than running the dishwasher partially full. A dishwasher cycle uses less than 4 gallons water and handwashing typically uses 4 gallons every minute. Regardless of how many or how few dishes I have- after dinner I run the dishwasher EVERY NIGHT!!

Very good tips and inspiring. Thank you <3

Great advices!I'm doing similar myself and learned some new,also.❤😊

I have no idea how it is with kids, but both me and my partner always put things in their place after use and pick up stuff from any room as we leave the room. We don't need the one swipe in the evening (aprt from fluffing the pillows), because our house is already tidy by then.
