It’s that time of year where everyone talks about cleaning up their house because it is officially Spring.  Seems like perfect timing because I’m focused on the word “clean” for my 2014 New Year’s Resolution part 1.

Spring Cleaning

Spring Cleaning by steph-gregerson featuring three wick candles

Those are my essentials.  Spring is the season for all things green.  I always try and get a new houseplant (and then struggle to keep it alive.)  I make myself a great playlist, pour a glass of wine, light a candle and clean every damn corner of this apartment.

As part of my resolution to be more clean, I changed a few things about my cleaning routine and have done a little more reading.  I have created new habits and I’m improving daily.  Laundry has been put away as soon as it’s done.  Our place still looks new.  I have things actually written into my planner that involve cleaning.  It feels amazing.

Go declutter some stuff this weekend.  Call the Lupus Foundation or the Vets and schedule a pick up. Soak your faucets in vinegar (all you need is a plastic bag and a rubber band.)  Then enter this giveaway and get yourself some ad space or a nice brand new design from Two Oaks Design (go check out her stuff) and a gift card to everyone’s favorite store.

Happy Spring and good luck!!!
