Spring is a season of rejuvenation and renewal. It’s also a
great time of year to freshen up your Wahiawa apartment home. Cleaning and
organizing your apartment will make it feel roomier, more welcoming, and
highlight its many desirable interior features. Even if you don’t have a lot of
time for cleaning this year, focusing on a few key areas of your apartment will
ensure the entire interior gains new life this spring.
Start With the Sinks
Whether you’re cleaning the kitchen or the bathroom, start
with the sink. A clean sink and faucet can improve the look of the entire room.
Kitchen sinks especially can gather food debris that makes your kitchen smell
like it needs to be cleaned, even when it’s spotless. Start with the drain—you
can maintain healthy plumbing and clear up any slow drains using a combination
of hot water, baking soda, and vinegar. First, pour a pot of boiling water down
the drain. Follow with half a cup of baking soda and half a cup of vinegar. Let
the solution sit for a few minutes, then flush it down the drain with another
pot of boiling water. If you have a garbage disposal, toss a few citrus peels
inside and run the disposal for a fresh-scented sink; alternatively, you can
pour a little lemon juice down the drain for the same effect. Shine your
faucets for additional sparkle that will make the entire room feel fresh
and clean.
Clear Up Clutter
Clutter can build up easily in your apartment, thwarting
your attempts to keep it clean and organized. Even if you don’t have time to
sort through all your clutter, use containers such as shoe boxes or plastic
bins to keep it contained. Set aside a day in the future when you can go
through the boxes and sort out items to keep or throw away. Mason jars,
baskets, and other open or clear containers are an excellent way to keep small
items grouped together within easy reach. Designate only one area of the coffee
table, kitchen table, or other flat surface where you can stack mail, magazines,
and notes to avoid letting the mess spread. Purchasing a small magazine rack or
mail holder can also help you keep paper clutter organized. Hooks and over-the-door organizers are other
great ways to get clutter off floors or tables by storing it in the vertical
space in your apartment.
Beautify the Bedroom
Your bedroom is another important space on which you should
focus during your spring cleaning. Change your bedclothes for a fresh new look,
which can revitalize the entire bedroom. Dust the room thoroughly for easier
breathing at night—don’t forget areas such as ceiling fan blades, lamp bases,
and headboards. Continue your cleaning spree into the master bathroom by
changing out your bath towels as well. If you have a bath mat, now is a great time
to wash it. Clean your bathroom mirror with a solution of one part vinegar and
one part water using a coffee filter or microfiber cloth to eliminate streaks
on the glass. A clean, shiny mirror will reflect more light, making your master
bathroom feel larger and more inviting.
