Listen to your favorite music! To be honest, if I’m listening to some good tunes, it makes me LOVE cleaning and I don’t want it to end.

Use supplies you feel good about!!  We both have switched over to using clean cleaning products! Kendra created this post a while back if you need a place to start — 10 Natural Household Products for a Cleaner Home.

Once you’ve finished, light a candle or put some oils diffusing and relax, because you did it!! Your house is feeling fresh and ready for spring.
