I wish I had a spring cleaning tip. But, I'm drawing a blank. Cleaning is definitely not something I enjoy doing or would want to spend my time doing. And while I do not have a spring cleaning tip, it is the one time I do enjoy cleaning. Knowing it is a deep cleaning, and I do it with the windows open, I love it. And I always have to use lemon smelling cleaning products. Between the open windows and the lemon scent, I am blissed out.

My favorite is lemon. Thank you

I have to break projects into pieces AND make one of those pieces a quick matainence of the areas that have already been cleaned/decluttered...otherwise, I just move stuff from room to room :)

I have a box for things I'm not sure about, but can't bring myself to throw away - if I haven't looked in the box the next time I spring clean the whole lot gets thrown. It's a great way of making sure that I'm not hoarding things for the sake of it!

OH my word, I'd love to win this!!!

I love (and can't wait) for a warmer day to open all of the windows and just air the house out. It just hasn't been warm enough to do that yet :)

The class looks a really good way to spring clean stash. I don't spirng clean! So sorry no tips but I agree with other posters that lemon is just the best smell

I love to open up everything as well and let the air in. I love to wash all those cotton sheets and move from flannelette to cotton.Fresh from the clothes line

Umm, let DH do it? ;) Have a great weekend!

Looks like a great class! My favourite spring-cleaning tip is to open all the windows for a couple of hours. It's amazing the difference fresh air makes, particularly in the bedrooms!

After a long winter of keeping the cold out, my favorite start to spring cleaning is opening up the house. Let the fresh air in!

I love creating a list to work from, listing tasks and crossing off as they are completed. Taken as a whole, Spring cleaning can be overwhelming, but I like it broken down into a manageable list. Love seeing all those crossed off tasks on my list-and it's even something that can be included in a Project Life or scrapbook page when finished.

I always say that if I haven't touched it in a year, it should go. Use Craigslist to list all of your old summer stuff NOW so that you can sell it since people are looking for summer items now, like old kid's clothes.

I start by making a list, changing over all the bedding and wardrobes and cleaning from the top to the bottom. The smell of spring (if it EVER gets here) puts me in the mood to "get the winter out" of the house!

I use clear plastic boxes to seperate my supplies. I also label everything so when it's time to clean I know where everthing goes and it's much faster to clean plus the clear plastic makes it so you can see what you have.

My best tip is One thing at a time. My mom used to try to clean the whole huge apartment in one morning... Mission: Impossible.

I do a task/room at a time, and it works a lot better.

Now, even my mom does it like me :)

What a great class! I'm not sure I have a spring cleaning tip per se, but it's important to set aside some time and to work from top to bottom.

Open the windows...turn up the music...clean, clean, clean! :-)

I routinely "spring clean" by giving unused items to the Goodwill.

I keep a lot of seasonal things in plastic bins, and try to go through them before the season starts, look at what I don't want anymore and off to the charity shops they go. Otherwise, I just clean as I go all year. No special spring or fall cleaning.ymmv.
