The post 3 Tips for Quick and Efficient Window Cleaning appeared first on My Daily Magazine - Art, Design, DIY, Fashion and Beauty !.
]]>Sunny weather may make your cleaner dry on the windows before you finish the job, making you work harder. If you pick a dry, cloudy day, you can be much more efficient and actually see if the windows are sparkling clean so there aren’t any surprises.
If you sweep or vacuum dirt from the window frame before starting you won’t spread it all over the window. By adding this extra step, you can actually save time!
The cleaner’s job is to dissolve the dirt so make sure to use enough of it. Pick a cleaner that comes in a bottle with a fine mist so it won’t drip as much. Any cleaner will do the work, and the more you do it the easier it will get.

]]>This is your guest’s first impression of your home, so just make sure it’s clear of shoes, jackets, and bags. Do a quick vacuum and sweep to clean it up.
Of course, we notice dirt and mess in other people’s homes and in public bathrooms, but in our own homes we’re exposed to it every day, so it gets overlooked. Put away any toiletries or makeup products that are on your countertop and wipe down your counter, faucets, and toilets.
There’s nothing grosser than finding someone else’s lipstick or dust on your glass. Prior to guests arriving rinse down your glasses and make sure to dry them right away. They’ll be so sparkly clean!
Inevitably, your guests will gather in your kitchen, so make sure your sinks are clear and your countertops are tidy. If you have dirty dishes and are in a rush, put them in the dishwasher.
Your pets, kids, and husband probably spend a lot of time chilling on the couch and it likely has food or pet hair all over it. Before your guests come, vacuum the couch, fluff any pillows, and fold the blankets.

]]>These are the bad habits you should quit today.
It’s a common misconception that using a lot of cleaning product will make your job easier and better. Not only are you wasting your money this way, but you’re also potentially ruining your stuff if the product is not rinsed away completely.
Clean the refrigerator on a regular basis and don’t store leftovers and other food you know you won’t be eating later. A fridge that is packed full of food is the perfect environment for bacteria growth, so make sure you clean it once or twice a month.
We’re sure that this doesn’t seem that bad, but wearing shoes in the house is the best way to bring all the bacteria, toxins and dirt inside, so try to quit this habit as soon as possible.
That clutter of dishes we tend to leave sometimes isn’t only making our kitchen look dirty, it’s also very unsanitary. Wash the dishes immediately or put them in a dishwasher to avoid bacteria or insects spreading in the kitchen.

Use a hairdryer to melt the crayon wax. Wipe it off with a cloth with a little dish soap. Microfiber cloths are particularly useful, but remember that the crayon will adhere to whatever cloth you use, so a paper towel might be a better bet.

Sometimes the old ways are best. Rub some mayonnaise onto the crayon marks and allow it to soak in for a few minutes. Then give the area a wipe with a damp cloth. Non-gel toothpaste also works well to scrub away the stains. Just rinse with water.
Mr. Clean’s Magic Eraser works miracles on crayon stains, although they shouldn’t be used on certain surfaces. To be sure, test the product in a hidden spot before using elsewhere. Don’t use on shiny surfaces.

Whether they’re real or fake, it’s so easy to forget to clean indoor plants. Wipe real leaves and flowers with a damp microfiber cloth.
Use a hairdryer to blow any dust present off silk plants. Other fake plants, depending on what they are made of, also benefit from a damp cloth.

Our closet floors are usually piled with shoes, so they’re somewhere that probably need cleaning attention. As our shoes come into contact with dirty floors and the outdoors, we really need to give our closet floors a regular good clean.
If a closet is carpeted, it could actually become the breeding ground for mildew and molds, as well as destructive insects.

]]>However, before you can root it out, there is a process you should follow to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
This is an example of the process addressing one example of disorganization in a home.
There will be more than one in the average home. Make a list and work through it methodically.
Maybe the problem is that your starting block area is always in a mess and full of things that don’t belong there.
This is the area where you put your keys and other necessities down.

Ask yourself why this is happening. Has it become a habit for everyone to dump their stuff in this area? Is there nowhere else to put these things?

Look at possible solutions for the problem.
Maybe you’ll need a family meeting and alternative storage space for items being put in the starting block area in error.

Set new rules and make sure everyone follows them. Review the implementation to make sure that your solutions are working.
If not, you’ll have to review the solution and try something else.
