Keeping a home clean can be both rewarding and frustrating. Sure, it’s possible to get your home clean, but to keep it that way can be the biggest challenge. Throw in the additions of busy schedules, jobs, kids, chaos and lack of time and it can feel downright defeating many days. Why bother cleaning when it’s only going to be a mess again the next day?
I understand just where you are coming from. Keeping your home clean while maintaining your sanity can be incredibly stressful. You may feel as though you can’t do anything right when it comes to maintaining a clean, organized, and welcoming home and even if you could find the time, you wouldn’t know where to start.
Need some serious help, a virtual hand to hold and guide you through the process of cleaning, homekeeping, and creating a home you feel proud of? That’s exactly why I created the Homekeeping Society, the perfect monthly intervention that is purposely designed to get your life and home in order with ease and adorable seasonal touches to keep you motivated.
I’ve created a monthly essentials subscription designed to help you get your home and life in order – HOMEKEEPING SOCIETY. This monthly subscription is made for YOU to get your life in order – with ease and adorable seasonal touches to keep you motivated to do the daily tasks that get boring and monotonous.
Every month I’ll show you the next month’s Homekeeping Society subscription on the 15th of the month – you can order ANY time but if you’d like to order the next month’s subscription you’ll need to do so by the 20th of the month. For instance – if you want November’s subscription you’ll need to order it by the 20th of October. If you sign up after the 20th of October you’ll be added to the next month’s list. Note: you’ll get immediate access to the digital download at the time of your order – yay!

HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT EVERY MONTH:
- INSTRUCTIONS – tells you how many pages to print out of each page and suggestions for implementing and making the pages work for you
- COVER PAGE – with the month and the inspirational quote for the month – great for putting in your binder or homekeeping notebook
- HOMEKEEPING FOCUS page – every month will focus on a room or area in the home (November is the kitchen) – this page lays it out and gives you room for making your own adjustments and goals.
- TO DO LIST – every month features a new, and highly functional to do list
- DAILY PLANNER PAGE – great for those busy days (or every day!) includes schedule, to dos, notes, meal
- WEEKLY DOCKET– Use the weekly docket to see your whole week and schedule on a page. Includes phone calls, emails, appointments, and planning for the next week.
- MENU PLAN FOR THE WEEK WITH A SHOPPING LIST- make a menu plan and take it with you
- MENU PLAN FOR THE MONTH – always includes a list for recipe ideas or ingredients to pick up
- 2 MONTHLY CALENDARS (1 blank, 1 pre-filled) – suggested daily cleaning tasks, weekly cleaning tasks, rotating cleaning tasks, organizing suggestions
- SEASONAL PREPARATION PRINTABLE – a helpful seasonal prep printable is always included in the monthly subscription – perfect for placing in a binder (November is a detailed shopping list)
- KITCHEN SINK QUOTE– the quote for the month – 5×7 – frame and put at your kitchen sink or tape to your fridge to give you a little motivation and inspiration for the month
- INFORMATION PAGE – at least one each month – fill it out and save in a family info section of your homekeeping binder or notebook and you’ll have a complete information section by the end of the year (insurance, 401K, etc.)
The HOMEKEEPING SOCIETY is the perfect blend of tell me what to do and I’ve got this – you’ll love the adorable touches, the fresh look every month, and intuitive nature of what Clean Mama Printables have always provided. To make it even better, you can get the subscription in digital AND printed for you format! For a printables business owner, this choice is HUGE and I am thrilled to be able to offer this option to you.

Alexis Says...
Is this a subscription that auto-renews every month, or is it possible to opt-out of one month if for some reason that becomes necessary?
Love this idea – I’m so excited for it!
Becky Says...
Post authorHi Alexis! Yes, it’s an auto-renewal subscription – you would have to stop the subscription through Paypal and then re-sign up anytime.

Penny Says...
I’ve already signed up, too! Am printing as we speak. I’m excited to get on track. Up til now I’ve been hit and miss, mostly miss. : )
Michelle Says...
So, when we sign up today, we are charged and then we can print? Or if I sign up, does it start next month and then I’ll be charged?
Becky Says...
Post authorYou can access the downloads after purchase – you’ll just need to log in to your account 🙂

I signed up last night! I have to ask, what brand is your binder? I’m not sure if you’ve mentioned it on your site before, but I’m new. 🙂
Becky Says...
Post authorThank you Michelle! It’s discbound notebook from Staples (Martha Stewart brand).

Michelle Says...
Thanks!

Becky,
Are any of these documents editable? I sort of have my own cleaning schedule some weeks to make life work a bit better for my family. 😉
Thanks,
Becky Says...
Post authorHi Kendra!
Not editable, or fillable but there are blank versions included that you could write in – see the description for which ones are blank. xo

Liddy Says...
Is it possible to sign up and pay for one month only, as a way to try it out to see how it works for me for November, without being putting on an auto-subscribe basis yet?
Liddy Says...
Nevermind…read the answer to my question in your reply to someone else above. 🙂 I’m going to go ahead and subscribe and see how it works for me! 🙂
Becky Says...
Post authorThanks Liddy!
Cathy Says...
What size are these pages? Standard letter size? I would be more interested in 5.5 x 8.5 pages.
Becky Says...
Post authorHi Cathy!
They are standard size but you can resize in your printer preferences 🙂

Renee S Says...
So excited!!! This looks wonderful and exactly what I needed!!
By the way, I noticed your cute Gratitude quote by your kitchen sink. I couldn’t quite read it, what does it say? Is this something you designed?
Thanks. Renee
Becky Says...
Post authorThanks Renee!
I designed it but the quote is from Melody Beattie, “Gratitude Turns What We Have Into Enough.”

Brooke Bumgardner Says...
I am so excited for this! I definitely need this. Thank you so much!
Linda Says...
I tried to download and got an error message. Any idea what is wrong?
Becky Says...
Post authorHi Linda!
I’m guessing it’s because it’s a zip file. Zip files are an easy way to save printables in a ‘folder’ that takes up less space on your computer. Not sure how to open a ZIP file?
PC – right click on the folder and select open – you should see the digital items in an open folder. Save to your computer or cloud storage and enjoy!
MAC – save the zip to your desktop or downloads folder. Double click on the zip file and it should automatically extract the files. If it doesn’t automatically extract/open, open with your zip application or converter.
iPad – download WinZip from the app store (free) and then open in iBooks or Kindle App or alternatively you can open the zip on a computer and attach and email the pdfs to yourself and open and read using your favorite app on your device.
If that doesn’t work, email me at clean.mama@yahoo.com and I’ll help you from there.
xo, Becky

Vanessa Says...
is credit card the only payment you accept? do you accept Paypal?
Becky Says...
Post authorI use Stripe for payment, so it’s a credit card payment. I do not accept PayPal anymore, it doesn’t work well with subscriptions 🙁
Vanessa Says...
Thanks for the reply 🙂
