Holiday Cleaning Tips & $50 Giveaway
“This review was made possible by Double Duty Divas and Mr. Clean. I was provided the featured product and compensations to facilitate this post, but all opinions are 100% mine." I don't know about you, but I never seem to have enough time to get everything done during the holidays! For me, the worst part about getting ready for the holidays is getting the house clean for company! I'd love to have a clean house, but for some reason or other, I can't seem to keep my house in a constant state of clean! So that usually means that I wipe myself out cleaning right before a holiday event, only to Continue reading...
Weekly Cleaning Schedule – Free Printable
Hi, everyone! Now that the new school year has started, I have been making a concentrated effort to keep my life and home more organized. Part of that effort includes making my own free printables for myself and to share -- I've been finding if I don't have my to-lists and chores on paper, I tend to forget them! LOL. I recently made a free printable colorful chore chart for my tweens. My kids just got their own rooms this summer, so they are really excited about keeping their rooms neat and organized so they can have friends over and be proud to show off their rooms! I most recently made Continue reading...

Easy and Quick Way to Clean Stove Grates
One thing I hate to do the most in my kitchen is clean stove grates. I forget about cleaning the stove grates for so long, so by the time I get around to cleaning them, I wind up with baked-on grease that's really tough to scrub off! Yuck!

Materials Needed 4 Ziploc Gallon Storage Bags A teaspoon or less of ammonia for each Ziploc bag (you only need a small amount per bag) Dish cleaning sponge (I like to use Continue reading...
Lemon, Orange and Vinegar Microwave Cleaner
Over the past few months, I have been trying to make the switch from commercial cleaning and beauty products to more natural (and less expensive) homemade ones.

Natural Microwave Cleaner When I clean the microwave, I usually fill a microwavable bowl halfway full with vinegar, microwave it for 1-2 minutes and immediately scrub down the microwave. It works like a charm! I have to tell you, though, that my Continue reading...
