When’s the last time you ‘Spring cleaned’ your home? Have you ever done it? Well, join me when I show you how easy it is to Spring clean your entire home by reducing chemicals used to clean.

Spring cleaning was huge when I was a young girl. I can remember many Saturday mornings, as a young girl with my 2 sisters, washing walls, polishing timber internal doors, removing every insect screen from the house and scrubbing them as well as getting into every ‘nook and cranny’ of our home to clean it, every Spring.

It’s a habit I continued well into my adult life but, I must admit, life (or should I say my children) kind of got in the way and I haven’t done a really good Spring clean in a few years.

I’m talking washing curtains, dusting and washing walls, cleaning sliding door and window tracks and all the really big household cleaning jobs you don’t do on a regular basis.

Starting on Friday, 1st September, join me in Spring cleaning your entire home. It will be so fresh and clean and you won’t have to worry about doing these big jobs again for another 12 months.

The Spring Cleaning Schedule

Below is the Spring Cleaning Schedule I’ve been using for years. It doesn’t look like there’s much to do on there or it might seem like there’s quite a lot but if you break it down to what you can get done in a day or a weekend, then it won’t be so overwhelming. If you work full-time, of course you’re not going to get a lot done every day. Even if you do the dry, dusting jobs for 20 minutes per day, after work (set a timer), you’ll be making great head way into getting the job done. Don’t worry if you can’t get it all done in September. Just keep at it and once complete, you’ll feel so much better about the home you’re in. Tick it off the schedule as you go.

Reducing Chemicals

I was introduced to Norwex products a few years ago and I fell in love straight away. I’ve always tried to use a minimum of chemicals when it comes to cleaning products used in the home. One, because of the damage to the environment and our own personal health plus the cost of buying chemical cleaners. I hardly ever visit the cleaning aisle in the supermarket. There’s really no need to. A simple household, all purpose cleaner and water is all you need. It’s all made easier with the range of Norwex cleaning cloths which are a superior microfibre cloth which does all the cleaning for you. Check out the video clip below on how effective the Norwex microfibre cloths are.

You don’t need to scrub really hard. The superior microfibre is ultra-thick and absorbent to pick-up and hold more dust, dirt and debris than other cleaning cloths. It holds several times its weight in water and is made of more than 10 million feet of microfiber for more effective cleaning power. With just water you can clean your entire home.

Norwex do have a range of chemical-free products to help in hard to clean areas like the oven, built up soap scum in the shower and stained toilet bowls, for example.

Cleaning Products

Like mentioned previously, you don’t really need anything more than water to do all your cleaning. If you can adapt to this way of cleaning all the time you’ll save so much money buying chemical cleaners plus you’ll be saving the environment and the health of your family.

Let’s face it, as good as cleaning with just water is, there are some areas of the home that need that little bit of help. One area is the oven. Norwex make a non toxic oven cleaning product which is just amazing. Same goes for built up soap scum and stains in the toilet bowl. Norwex have a product for just about every hard to clean surface but promote just the use of water with their revolutionary microfibre cloths and other cleaning tools.

These are the recipes I use for making my general purpose cleaning products. There are many recipes on the internet. If I do want to add a scent to the area I’m cleaning, I’ll use a few drops lavender or eucalyptus essential oil.
