I am all caught up except for the car.  I hate doing that, and it shows.  :)

A vinegar rinse is my cleaner of choice. It makes my floors a little bit shinier

What a great spring cleaning tip! I hate cleaning the ceiling fans because I feel like it makes the rest of the room all dusty. I'm going to try this tip.

I agree. I currently use this long handled thing and as I run it over the top of the fan blades, all this dust just comes tumbling down in the air to the floor. What a mess.

 Me too.  I'm going to have to try the pillowcase trick.  Thanks for bumping this!

Desperate to do this!  I am hoping to start today before April as I am due in the beginning of July and I have 9 month old.  Not to mention all the crap we received from my inlaws when we moved them into a nursing home. 

 

We just put away most of the Christmas ornaments but the tree is still up.

For Pet Stains = Mix equal parts water and vinegar. Dampen the area and let sit for 30 minutes.  Dab to soak up liquid. Spread baking soda on top. Spray area with 1 part hydrogen peroxide and 2 parts water.  Spray and allow to dry.  Vacuum up and viola!

I would like to join in on the 30 Days to a Clean House Spring Challenge.  How would I get updates on what to do?
