March Spring Clean: Day 4

Today should be a fairly quick and easy spring clean. We are going to ‘floor it’!

Choose a small area of flooring, and give it a really thorough clean. If it’s laminate or tiling, sweep it well, and then wipe down with a dampened cloth.

If it’s carpet, use a stain remover to get rid of a stubborn mark, or get the vacuum cleaner out and use an edging tool to show the sides and corners of the room no mercy.

If you’ve chosen a mat or rug, take it outside and beat or shake it, as well as using the vacuum cleaner on it.

Today I’m a bit late to the party because I overdid it somewhat. I’ve shampooed the hefty runner from our hallway, and done the same to the carpet on the landing. It’s looking sooo much better already, but I think I’ve learned my lesson – one small step at a time from now on.

Meanwhile I’m feeling a bit tired and emotional so if you’ll excuse me it’s time for an early night.
