Spring cleaning hacks to save time and money
Your home is likely to be subject to typical wear and tear, especially with young children in the mix. Whether it's scuffed walls from a foam sword fight that got out of hand or markings on your hardwood floors, quick cleaning hacks that use what you already have on hand, can save you time and money.
- Make your own DIY scuff remover using baking soda and a damp sponge — it acts like a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser at a fraction of the cost. Use the baking soda and sponge to buff out everything from fruit juice stains on the countertop to marks on the wall.
- Juice half a lemon with some water in a cup, and put it in the microwave for a minute; the resulting steam will help loosen the food particles making it easy to just wipe off with a microfiber cloth.
- Invest in a double-sided squeegee for cleaning windows and mirrors. Use hot water, vinegar, and dish soap to make quick and easy work of glass surfaces.
