1. Get rid of unnecessary things

Your house - it's not a warehouse or a lost property office, so it's time to finally make out the cupboards and in the name of comfort to throw away all the accumulated junk.

Disassemble clothing, hopelessly corrupt and openly to old things in the trash can, and the ones that look like well, but just do not like, you can try to sell at online flea markets. Place your order in boxes of cosmetics and household cleaning products. All spoiled the sight, so it is not necessary to use.

Same story with the appliances. Constantly overheated mixer, iron shabby cord rewind the tape - like small things, but with frequent use of even small flaws are starting to get annoying.

The only thing, what should be remembered, - functionality above all. For example, a rug with long pile may look nice beside the couch, but you are a thousand times regret buying when you clean it. Same story with lots of figurines on the shelves - you first need to remove them, then wipe off the dust, then put everything in its place... Try to find a reasonable compromise in the choice between beauty and convenience.

3. Keep the

Not to kill for cleaning all weekend, break it into phases - it's easier than the day trying to cope with the fact that accumulated over the week.

Here is a rough outline of daily affairs. You can add other objects and change the order of their execution. The point is that maintaining cleanliness - an ongoing process, not a feat every two weeks.

• Thursday: shalt bathroom and arrange laundry.
• Monday: stroke the laundry.
• Environment: wipe the dust.
• Tuesday: vacuum the floor.
• Friday: wash your plate and get rid of stale food in the refrigerator.

All, by the end of the week in your home clean. There are only little things such as a change of bed linen and wash clothes you plan to wear next week. Wash clothes better on Saturday to Sunday pat it and hang it in the closet. Bed linen replace on Sunday, on Monday, just start washing.

4. Maximally simplify the cleaning process

The less effort is required in order to restore order, the better. Stock up on the right inventory: with him even spring-cleaning will not be a burden.

Dust microfiber cloth much faster and more efficient than the old T-shirt or a piece of your old your blanket cover. If the floor wash water with the addition of special agents to scrub dirt effortlessly obtained already from the first time.

You hate to sweep the floors? Buy a good vacuum cleaner, and be done with it.

Compact upright vacuum cleaner - a good solution for the owners of small apartments, where it is difficult to find a place to store a volumetric models. At the same time it eliminates the need to manually clean the carpets and upholstery.

It will be very good if a vacuum cleaner is equipped with cyclone filterRather than dust bag.

Accumulated dust in the bag prevents the free circulation of air, so the suction power decreases in the course of cleaning. Models with a cyclone filter not have this drawback.

5. Get houseplants

6. Remember the great outdoors

If the apartment is no air to breathe, a comfortable atmosphere and to talk sense. Get generally regularly ventilate the room, you can even arrange through ventilation: 5-10 minutes to open all the windows - and off they'd go.

Watch out for humidity. There would be useful hygrometer, but you can manage and improvised means. Pour into a glass of cold water and leave it in the refrigerator for several hours, until the water is cooled to about 3 ° C. Put the glass in a room away from the cells and see what happens to him next.

• On the walls of the glass, condensation, which dries quickly - the indoor air is too dry.
• The surface of the glass was left slightly damp - everything is normal.
• They run along the walls of glass streams - air is too humid.

If you feel that the house hard to breathe, you have constantly dry throat - a sure sign that it's time to get humidifier. When you select a note on its volume and the rate of evaporation. Ideally, the device should be able to work all night, so you do not have to turn it off or add water.

The quieter running a humidifier, the better - not enough even wake up at night because of the noise and gurgling. Not a bad option - a device that can not only moisturize, but also flavored the air. Everything is simple: add in a tank of water a few drops of essential oil in a few minutes of the apartment will float a pleasant aroma.

7. Select the appropriate lighting

Warm light - our all. He is much more suited to create a cozy atmosphere than cold office lighting. It is not necessary overdo it with the brightness - when the apartment will be illuminated better than any operating room, comfort is unlikely to add.

Experiment with additional light sources. Floor lamp, wall lamp or table lamp - look at the situation. In the living room, place a local source of light next to the sofa or chairs in the bedroom - on the table or bedside table, in the kitchen - above the dining table.
