Spring Cleaning your Bathrooms
Living with 4 guys, this room is NOT my favorite. I don’t know what it is but the aiming seems to be a real challenge.
In 2 of our bathrooms, the toilet is literally right next to the shower. It took me some time to realize that the shower curtain was catching a lot of the splash. TMI?
I would clean and clean the bathroom but it still just SMELLED something awful.
Until one day it struck me, I needed to clean the shower curtain. And wouldn’t you know it, it completely freshened up the entire room!
So let’s start here
- Fabric shower curtain: follow the laundry instructions on the label.
- Vinyl shower curtain or liner, drop it in the bathtub filled halfway with hot water. Add a cup of bleach and let it soak as you clean the rest of the bathroom.
While that is soaking and cleaning let’s get to
- Counters
- Door
- Light Switch Plates
Toilet
This is where the real work happens. One thing I need to stress with my boys when they are cleaning is to not only focus on the inside of the toilet but the outside as well.
To me, cleaning the toilet is inside, outside and the floor surrounding it.
My favorite disinfectant products are right here!! Seriously these are the BEST!
Let me know below to get more info on them
Cabinets and Drawers
- Wipe down the outsides
- Clean and declutter the insides
- Pull out all items
- Wipeout
Check expiration dates or ask yourself how long you’ve REALLY had that body lotion that was found in the back of your cabinet
Put back ONLY the items you use.
Did you know that Skincare and Makeup have “Best By” dates?
Basic rule of thumb:
- Unopened products are good for up to 36 months
- Opened products 12 months
- Makeup toss after 6 months
- Mascara and eyeliners replace every 3 months to avoid bacteria and infections
So let’s tackle day #2!!
Let me know how it’s going… anything I’m missing? I’d love to hear!
