Preparing for the Autumn

Yes it is that time of the year again where I like to have a good old deep clean and change certain areas of my home around ready to begin a new season.

"Preparing for the Autumn"

​"Help clear those bugs"

Today my husband and I sanitized and deep cleaned our home, using Flash Cleaning Spray, All In One Dettol spray, kitchen towel and anti-bacterial wipes. Then after once the cleaning is done we spray each room with, Wilko's Scented Room Mists, to help make each room smell nice and refreshed. 

So this morning my husband did the kitchen and Vacuumed the entire house using our Dyson Cordless Vacuum and I focused on cleaning the floors such as the kitchen and our living room floor, which has wooden flooring, used our Flash spray mop. I love using this as it really helps save time and gets the job done. 

You do need to change the pad underneath at the bottom of the spray mop, but really helps clear that dirt. 

As you can see from the photos above, I cleaned all areas in which our son in particular could come into contact with, as he has already started to get sick, and has a nasty cough, so I cleaned all the windowsills, door handles, our Hi-Fi, fireplace, TV units, his bedroom chest of draws, my cube units, my studio unit in areas where he can easily reach, the corner units we have, my husbands bedroom unit that is beside our bed, the hanging shelves and our bed which has a TV installed in it. 

The Flash Spray Mop I used.

To deep clean and sanitize the kitchen he used Flash Cleaning spray and Dettol All In One Spray and cleaned the kitchen units, the doors and handles, the microwave and oven and I then gave the sink a good old scrub. 

When it comes to using these two products, the Flash Kitchen spray, spray it then leave it a couple of minutes to do its work, then wipe away with a damp cloth or use kitchen towel. 

​With the Dettol All in One spray, you can spray it and leave it. 

We usually get our cleaning products from either Poundland or Wilko's, as they are the same products you get in supermarkets, but I find the pricing to be a lot more inexpensive.

Then as mentioned above we then spray each room with the Wilko's Room Mists. 

When it comes to Polishing I always use Mr Sheen or Pledge. Then Polishing was done yesterday.

If you need some more inspiration then check out these videos below. One is by Emily Norris, Clear out 100 things! Extreme Declutter and Minimalise.

The other one is by Do It On a Dime, about being unmotivated to clean, it is an ultimate clean with me video. See below:

"So are you ready to spruce up your home?"
