SPRING IS COMING! It’s officially time to tidy up! No, that doesn’t mean you have to follow Marie Kondo’s method. Although, it’s pretty legit.
While I absolutely love love love Spring, (my second favorite season after Fall, of course) my skin tends to break out at the slightest change in the weather.
So this year I’m making it a priority to be prepared. I will no longer put this task off and will be tackling it within the next few weeks.
In order to get started, I searched for some Spring cleaning inspirational videos to see if there are any

I love watching anything Refinery29 as I love their content, but this particular video from 2018 was pretty helpful.

Spring Cleaning Tip List – The Drs.
Eric Stromer stresses the importance of air quality deteriorating in the winter, causing lots of toxins. From dust mites to pollen, it’s important to always wear a mask when dealing with air ducts and filters.
All I can say is WOW! Watching a spring cleaning video is so much better than reading cleaning list ideas. This was so helpful. I can totally agree my house feels so stuffy after a winter of staying in the majority of the time. I always love to start spring cleaning off with professional upholstery cleaning to keep the dust and mites off my upholstery. I never realized how nasty your couches get from sitting on them all the time. Always helps my home feel fresh and makes me want to clean everything else to match.
