40 Tips That Make Spring Cleaning FUN

After feeling super couped up all winter, the thought of daylight savings and spring finally arriving makes us want to squeal with pleasure. However, the topic of spring cleaning? Not so much. It’s pretty hard to get motivated to mop the floors when it’s getting nicer outside. Even a good playlist (which we recommend) as an incentive doesn’t always do the trick. Yep, we’d also rather watch Marie Kondo on Netflix rather than put her method into practice ourselves.

No matter the size of your abode, the task of cleaning up can feel super daunting — especially if you don’t have a cleaning crew (or housekeeper) to assist you. The stove you neglected all winter? That needs attention. The drawer filled with miscellaneous household items? Don’t forget about that! Those curtains you’ve been meaning to change since last spring? No better time than the present. All those expired beauty products? Totally time to toss ‘em. There are million small tasks that can instantly feel overwhelming, but we promise its totally worth it.
