Come SPRING Clean : Essential Tools for Spring Cleaning

I love getting ready for spring cleaning. Gathering supplies and gearing up for a cleaning endeavor is definitely more fun than the cleaning itself, right? I find that it’s most effective to gather from tools I already have and then assess the situation and see if I need to get anything else. This ensures that I am ready to do a little bit of cleaning every day or for a few days in a row, and stay on track with spring cleaning. Want to give it a whirl too?

Here’s what you need to do:

Grab a container, a basket, or a caddy and collect the tools you’ll need for spring cleaning. You can carry this from room to room with you or keep it in a mudroom or storage closet and just take out what’s needed each day. This year I’m especially excited to spring clean because I have my very own products (Clean Mama Home) and not only do I love using them (because cute cleaning definitely makes cleaning more fun), but they work better than anything I’ve used before! Yay 🙂

I’m keeping the cleaning supply list SIMPLE this year, less is more and when you have multi-purpose products, it’s just plain easier to get that cleaning done.

Spring Cleaning Tools:

• cleaning caddy
• microfiber cleaning cloths
• bar mops or cotton cleaning cloths
• duster
• vacuum cleaner with attachments
• mop
• carpet cleaner (optional)
• blind cleaner
• scrub brushes – large and small (or an old toothbrush)
• window squeegee
• lint roller
• garbage bags

Spring Cleaning Products – use your favorites or DIY them (I’ll be sharing my recipes this week):

• dish or castile soap
• all-purpose cleaning spray
• window spray
• soft scrub

I’ve linked up my favorites below – some are affiliate links:
