Top Tips For Keeping Your Home Clean And Tidy

10 February 2022 by Eileen

Cleaning up your house is a big job, but it’s one that needs to be done. We’ve created a list of cleaning recommendations to help you stay on the right track and keep your home looking lovely and tidy!

Top Tips For Keeping Your Home Clean And Tidy

Follow these basic steps to create a well-organized and easy-to-maintain space.

Stick To A Schedule

It’s difficult to break bad habits, but making tidying a routine will help you stay organized and maintain your home tidy and clean. You don’t have to clean your entire house all at once; instead, pick a portion or two each day focus on cleaning those areas. This tiny daily effort will build up to a neat home over time.

Keeping your belongings organised will make it much easier for you to maintain a neat and tidy environment. Name shelves or cabinets with what’s inside, and return objects to their proper places as soon as you’re done with them. A little upfront effort goes a long way toward achieving a clean home.

Keep Cleaning Up To A Minimum

It can be difficult to balance everything if you try to do too much at once. You might pick up a few items before being intimidated by the task at hand, then drop them back down instead of placing them where they go. Pick one object in your office, bedroom, etc., and concentrate on cleaning that one area. Other areas can be cleaned up later. Make sure your style is consistent throughout the house, and make the most out of the space you have by keeping it clutter-free.

Update Your Old Furniture 

If you have old furniture such as a sofa, you may feel as though you can never get things feeling clean. If you have tried to clean your sofa throughout, it may be time to think about looking at some new Luxury Sofas, and starting afresh.

Maintain A Clean Environment

Because dirt and grime accumulate on surfaces, keeping them clean will keep your home looking neat and tidy. Windowsills, counters, door handles, touchable surfaces, TV screens, appliances (such the fridge), and other locations that get dirty quickly should be wiped down on a regular basis.

Dusting And Vacuuming Every Day

You’ll be able to maintain your home looking lovely and tidy on a daily basis this way! If you need to leave your house for a few days and no one will be visiting, it’s preferable to hire someone to clean it for you or employ an office cleaning service. That way, you can always return to a clean and tidy home.

Keep Track Of Your Laundry

As soon as the clothing comes out of the dryer, fold it. If you stack garments on top of each other, they will wrinkle and crumple, making it difficult to fold them correctly. Also, before tossing towels or sheets into the laundry bin, ask yourself if you’ll use them again. It’s best to fold items right away to avoid getting them soiled or wrinkled.

Hello!

Welcome to ET Speaks From Home!

Hi, I’m Eileen — a mum of two teenagers, aged 18 and 17, and a passionate lifestyle blogger sharing snippets of family life, creativity, and culture since May 2012. My daughter lives with visual impairment, and our journey together has shaped much of the heart behind this blog.

What started as a small space to document family memories has grown into a vibrant corner of the internet where I share my love for cooking, crafting, DIY projects, Chinese culture, parenting, and honest product and YouTube reviews. Whether I’m creating festive crafts, exploring Chinese traditions, or trying out new recipes, I hope to inspire others through everyday moments from home.

Over the years, ET Speaks From Home has been recognised by several parenting and blogging communities, including:

* Top 20 UK Parent Blogs (2020)

* Tots100 Top 20 Vloggers (2016)
* Shortlisted for the BritMums Brilliance in Blogging Awards (BiBs), Video Category (2014)
