Since my kids play on the floors a lot I feel like I need to clean the floors often and that isn’t fun. I keep it charged in my garage and I have now gotten into the habit of Swiffering (is that a word?) I just throw them in the laundry with my other cleaning rags.

We do put up decorations (ones I buy at garage sales or thrift stores and reuse each year). Search the attic, the backs of the closets, the garage and see what inspiration presents. Dad’s old cowboy hat and a rope from the garage can be the start of a cowboy get up. Eat it by baking the cleaned, salted seed.

My brother once cleaned potato chip bags after turning them inside out and used those as gift bags! Shop garage sales and thrift stores and estate sales. Christmas decorations, wrap, bows and ribbon all are continuous offerings at pretty much every garage sale, thrift store or estate sale I’ve ever shopped.

Unless you have a very small house, you can save yourself time and effort by storing stuff where you use it. Keep bath cleaning products in the bathroom along with other things (like rags, buckets and etc) needed to do the cleaning. Then always start your cleaning chores in that bath and move to the others.

If the item is usable, I need it and it can be cleaned, it is on my radar to obtain. Here is a short list of some of my favorite finds at garage, estate and thrift store sales. 50 each (and cleaned and disinfected as well) on them. I used it for years and sold it – for $25 – last summer in my own garage sale.

It claimed that a clean workspace improved productivity and gave the illusion of being in control and on top of work tasks. Have a big box ready to take the throw-away items and another for anything that is good enough to go to the local thrift store. Sounded good to me, so that’s where I decided to start. Be ruthless!
