Got the spring cleaning bug? Make sure you do it the right way
Ah, spring is in the air . As you survey your domain, you might find yourself bitten by the spring cleaning bug. Many people feel spring is the perfect time to tackle a long-awaited project or to simply declutter, clean, and organize. After all, that fresh air wafting in through your open windows is an excellent motivator, particularly if it's accompanied by a delightful floral fragrance coming in from the outdoors.
It's tempting to dive in without a plan, especially when inspiration strikes, but if you clean a certain way, it might just be a waste of time, or even worse, dangerous.
1. Cleaning from the bottom up Sure, it's easy enough to glance at a room and just dive in, but in the process, you might be cleaning in the wrong order and getting already-clean surfaces grimy again. It's a good idea to start at the top of the room and work your way to lower areas, so any dust or dirt that rains down will settle on something you'll be cleaning later.
