9 Solutions to Keeping a Tidy House

1. Take your shoes off before entering your home – this will keep your carpet and floors clean longer!

2. Hang up your clothes rather than letting them accumulate around your house. This will save you lots of time if you have guests coming over at the last minute.

3. Have the determination to finish every project you begin. It always seems like the longer you wait to complete a project, the less likely you’ll get it done! Be sure to allot enough time over a weekend or month to start and finish every home makeover, cleaning task, or update you decide to do.

4. Avoid the 100+ piece collections.  Whether it’s books, dolls, or even kitchen gadgets, this will give your home a busy and cluttered look.

5. Effectively store your cleaning products so you’re not always on the hunt to find your all-purpose spray!  We’ve also found that storing additional cleaning supplies in each bathroom with paper towels and sponges allow for an easy, quick clean-up.

6. Do you have an abundance of spices and condiments? If so, go through them and get rid of multiples or the ones you don’t ever use.

7. Lastly, one of the best ways to keep a tidy house is to take 10 minutes out of your evening and straighten up your place before you go to bed. You’d be surprised how maintained your home will look throughout the week! I know this is easier said than done, but I find it easier to do this rather than block an hour out of my schedule once or twice a week to clean.
