New Year New start, cleaning diary of cleaning tips

Cleaning Tips

It's a New Year and still not too late to make a new start!
Today we are looking at the kitchen and here are some tips so you can enjoy a fresh clean kitchen.

1. Look around the worktops, how much is there that doesn't belong in the kitchen?
2. Look in the cupboards are they overflowing and lost their way?
3. Plates with chips, cutlery overflowing?

Does this seem familiar!  If it does don't despair we are here to get you on track to a clean fresh kitchen.

Clearing the kitchen:

1. Clear off all the kitchen worktops, put any paperwork into a pile then in a box for sorting.  Yes sometimes kitchens can look like a home office! School letters, post, junk mail you name it.
2. Now that's done look at what is left and remove it to the floor and scrub those worktops thoroughly using only the right solution for your surface and taking special care if its wood.
3. Next get 3 boxes and label as follows (a) charity (b) keep (c) bin
4. Sort out all the cutlery, china, glass and bowls and decide what has had it's day and can be thrown away and what you don't use - take it to charity as there will be someone that may need it more than you and then decide what items you really do want to keep.
5. If those boxes are full, label some more and get ready for more action!!
6. The dreaded food store, look for products that you no longer use, throw anything out of date in the bin. Have a shopping list nearby and write down anything that you think know you will need and enjoy.  By now I should think a lot of your cupboards are clearer.

Replace the things that you only want to keep.

1. Be firm and stay firm, if you find it hard to part with something but think you don't really need it then get a helping hand of encouragement.  Believe me when it's gone you will forget all about it.
2. Anything that is really good but you know you don't use and it can go try and see if you can sell it maybe a car boot sale, after the sale anything you don't sell make sure you take it straight to the charity shop or it will end up back where you started!
3. Now clean all those cupboards with an appropriate cleaning solution and sanitise, wait until dry and then carefully reorganise your things and replace.
