It is that time of the year when in Wisconsin you want to clean all the winter dirt, dust, and grim off everything and open up the windows to let the spring breezes freshen up the house. This year, the days of warm spring breezes are far and few between, but hopefully we will get there :)
Usually spring cleaning happens when I am home on Spring Break from school so I have one week to deep clean the house. Here is the post about my spring cleaning routine and a check list that I use. However, this year because I am on maternity leave yet, I have some more time to complete my spring cleaning so I am participating in the Spring Clean in 30 Challenge put on by A Bowl Full of Lemons and Clean Mama.
Each day they give a different thing to clean in your house. For example, Day 1 was to dust all the edges and corners of the ceiling level. I like that there is just one thing to clean each day and depending on how large your house is, it really doesn't take that long. I don't feel like I am spending all day cleaning. I get to do other things throughout the day, like caring for a newborn :)
Each day they ask that you take a picture of you completing the task and then share the picture on Instagram using the hashtag #springcleanin30 and to tag them in the picture - @cleanmama and @abowlfulloflemons.
The challenge started on April 1 and ends on April 30. Feel free to join in. It's okay if you missed a few days or can't do a task each day, just double up on some days. This challenge has made spring clean fun!
