7 Days to a Cleaner House
This post may contain affiliate links. Read disclosure policy.
Not going to lie I am not the cleanest or most organized in the world. My husband is the clean one. But I love a clean house it makes me feel wonderful. So I am going to spend the next 7 days to get my house in shape and keep it that way! Now my house is not super messy to begin with. So this plan is to keep the house cleaning up all week so it looks nice. If your house is a little messier then spend a couple extra days straightening it up and de-cluttering it. Also, if you have a lot of laundry try to do one load per day. We only do about 3 or 4 a week so I split it up and do a load every other day.
Mondays: Vacuum-10 minutes, straightening up in the morning- 5 minutes, straightening up at night/dishes- 5-10 minutes
Tuesdays: Dust-5-10 minutes, straightening up in the morning- 5 minutes, straightening up at night/dishes- 5-10 minutes
Wednesdays: Clean bathrooms- 10 minutes, straightening up in the morning- 5 minutes, straightening up at night/dishes- 5-10 minutes
Thursdays: Mop floors-10 minutes, straightening up in the morning- 5 minutes, straightening up at night/dishes- 5 minutes

Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your
blog. I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any suggestions for newbie blog writers? I’d definitely
appreciate it.

This is some good advice! I just made a schedule for cleaning too! One room a day and at least one load of laundry a day 🙂 Since I have a small house, each room will get cleaned once a week! 🙂 I would love for you to link this up at my link party this week! You can find it here:

Thats also a great idea! That would work for us too because we have a tiny tiny house! I will gladly link up thanks!
Sounds like a good plan! Indeed, a clean house can make you feel wonderful and somewhat light. After all the cleaning and making the house uncluttered, it will surely feel like your house can breathe. And a cleaning schedule definitely helps you to keep track on your daily cleaning activities.
Couldn’t agree more guy! Its much more relaxing to come into a clean house rather then a messy one!
This is an enlightening post for me. Thanks for joining Creative Bloggers’ Party & Hop. Btw, this is the week’s favorite post so it’ll be featured today 🙂
I was intrigued by the title! I found you on Frugally Sustainable. You make it look so doable. I don’t know if I can do it, but 5-10 minutes of some kind of cleaning is probably a good thing.
Sometimes it can be really hard especially when your tired after work or something! But knowing it will make me feel better in the long run makes it worth it!
Great schedule! I feel like I am constantly trying to keep the house clean, or less cluttered is probably a better term. When I had my first babe I tried to keep everything nice and neat and clean. By the time the second came along I lost all hope of ever having a “company ready” home. I figure when they are older it will be easier 🙂 But, for now I am just on the crazy ride of toddler/pre-schooler life 🙂
I don’t think it ever gets easier. I think the older I got the messier I got haha. Take little steps and you can do it!!!
You can clean bathrooms in 10 minutes? No way! Maybe your kids are less grubby than mine 🙂
Thanks for sharing your routine – I need a better one, for sure.
Haha yes I can probably clean mine in like 3 minutes. I don’t have kids and only one bathroom thats very tiny! I could understand how kids make it dirtier especially boys!!!
