10 Things That Women Who Have a Clean House Do

We confess that, for us, it is a great effort to keep our house clean. We have the impression that this miracle requires sustained effort and that it can be shaken from its foundations by a single wrong gesture. What housewife didn't go through the situation of being uprooted for a whole day to discover that, towards evening, the house looks like a disaster again?

If you haven't read Marie Kondo yet, you'll be amazed to learn that women who always have a clean house don't work every day. On the contrary, they rely on a few secrets that keep them clean and tidy without much fuss.

They make their bed in the morning

Even psychologists advise us to make our bed in the morning, insisting that it is a gesture that will help us to be more productive and hardworking during the day.

But a perfectly arranged bed will also give the impression of a tidy room, even when it is not entirely the case.

They take off their shoes when they enter the house

Maybe walking around the house with heeled shoes makes you think of a diva, but most of the time, this type of woman has hired staff to chase after them.

The truth is, when you enter the shoemaker's house, you'll bring all the germs and dirt out onto your carpets. Teach your family to take off their shoes at the door and design a nice sign to persuade your guests to do the same.

They clean the shower door

Just remember how much you need to rub to remove water and dirt stains from the glass shower door! How do you prevent this phenomenon?

Simple, after each shower, wipe the door with a solution for the windows! It doesn't take you more than 20 seconds and it can make a huge difference. You can also use vinegar!

They clean the bathroom sink every night

Isn't that a little … exaggerated? No, because, as in the case of the shower door, this prevents the formation of stains.

You can use either a natural cleaning product or even baby wipes because you don't have too much dirt to remove. It will become your favorite activity while brushing your teeth in the evening.

They clean the kitchen counter every night

Especially if you cook at home, this is one of the most sensitive surfaces. But clean quickly before you go to bed and your kitchen will always shine.

The housewives recommend a natural, gentle mixture: one part vinegar, three parts water, and a few drops of organic dishwashing detergent for a discreet scent.

They wash the dishes while they cook

After spending a good amount of time cooking, the kitchen, which can be easily compared to a battlefield, encourages you to run away. But believe us, this morning will not be more tempting.

The solution? Clean while cooking. Instead of sitting on the phone or watching TV waiting for the food to brown in the oven, it is better to wash the containers in which you cooked, wipe the surfaces, and collect the remaining food. If it's all month before dinner, you can consider yourself a winner!

They sweep fast the surfaces before going to bed

Forget the superstition that you are not allowed to sweep before bed because it is nothing more than a preconception.

And you don't even have to suck deeply; just pass the broom or mop on the most exposed surfaces (not all over the house and not on the carpets), and the results will be wow!

They involve the family

If you ask all your loved ones to help you, it won't take more than five minutes! Gather the toys, put the discarded objects in their place, hang the jackets in them, throw the garbage: in the morning, you will all wake up much better!

They arrange the clothes

If you don't have clothes on the floor at the end of the day, then you and your family are an example. But as this phenomenon rarely happens, you may need to tighten them in the evening.

Put the ones to be washed in the dirty laundry basket, put the clean ones in the closet, and arrange the pajamas under the pillow the next morning. These are the perfect solutions for a clean house!

They open the windows

Even if it's cold to freeze the stones outside, a few moments won't hurt anyone. On the contrary, it refreshes the air and gives the impression that your home is a thousand times cleaner than it is.
