OK everyone
Those with Living rooms, this ones for you. Everyone else keep plugging away at the basement. If you have both we'll.....I feel for ya! HEHE
Goal
Create a peaceful space for reading and relaxing
Treat
New candles, candlesticks, vase, or water fountain
Declutter
- Rate your knickknacks. What's gathering dust? Are the flower arrangements dried or petrified?
-Empty and clean any bookcases and magazine racks. Toss or donate anything you don't want to keep. Make separate piles for things that belong in other rooms.
-Make note of any items that need repair, such as window sashes, light fixtures or furniture.
Clean
-Vacuum and clean furniture, floor, baseboards, cushions, walls, fan blades, lampshades and blinds.
- Take down curtains to clean or dryer fluff. Try to switch sides when rehanging to minimize sun damage.
-Dust all knickknacks and picture frames.
-Vacuum and clean rugs or wood floors.
- Check the UL wattage maximum information on the bulb base of each lamp to make sure you've got safe and appropriate lighting.
- Polish and oil wood furniture.
- Dry clean slipcovers and vacuum furniture using upholstery nozzle.
- Wash all windows
Maintain
- Arrange bookcases.
- Set up newspaper and magazine racks to keep clutter to a minimum.
- Schedule any necessary repairs and, if appropriate, have your fireplace inspected and cleaned before the fall.
