Happy Home Roundup: Organizing and Cleaning Edition

Posted by Smart Calgary Homes Blogging Team on Friday, August 10th, 2012 at 4:06pm.

If your home is in need of a little pick-me-up in the form of some organization or cleaning, Smart Calgary Homes has got you covered! We’ve put together some of our favourite tips from the web, as well as from some of our great friends on Twitter and Facebook, to create this week’s Happy Home Roundup: Organizing and Cleaning Edition. Read on for the tips, and don’t forget to send some our way (via our Facebook or Twitter pages, or leave a comment, below) so we can share them with our readers.

Reader tips:
@CalgaryJunk (1-800-GOT-JUNK YYC), on Twitter, says: “de-clutter the house - it makes it look larger and especially great tip for people selling their homes! #giveusthejunk”

@ALookTraining (A Look Training), on Twitter, says: “It sounds odd, but dryer sheets can remove soap scum from the tub! :)”

Stephanie W., on Facebook, says: “Use plastic bread bag clips to help organize your cables or plugins - just label each one with "monitor," "power," etc. and you will always know which cord belongs to what!”

Tips from our favourite sites:
Curbly has this great Kitchen Cleaning Cheat Sheet that is available to download; it helps you figure out how to clean pesky kitchen items (like the stove, toaster oven, and fridge) and when to clean them.

Stylelist Home suggests using a wine rack to organize buttons, paperclips, and any other small household items. Sounds good to us!

The folks over at Real Simple say “Purge your Pantry” and we agree! Check out their great step-by-step gallery on how to get your pantry organized quick.

What are your must-have cleaning or organizing tips?
