Tuesday’s Tips ~ A Clean House is a New House

October 19, 2011 By Living Solutions Interior Design

As most of you know, we’re in a new home. There are so many changes on the “to-do” list and we really need a lot of furniture still. Our living room and dining room are completely empty except for a buffet and a book case that will find a new home eventually. And it will stay that way for quite some time. We added some new necessary pieces of furniture and we’ve made a lot of updates around here since we’ve moved in. So needless to say, the “fix up the new house” money tank is running on empty these days!

Getting ready for this past weekend’s festivities reminded me that a huge decor boost is just to clean away! Vacuum and clean floors, scrub scuff marks off of walls and doors, dust those baseboards and the furniture, clean mirrors and light fixtures and windows, and “Wa-La!” Suddenly an empty house, or an older sofa doesn’t look too shabby!

A good, thorough cleaning job always makes me love my home more. 
 So today’s tip…
Clean, clean away and love your home like new again!
