How to Clean your Home Office Fast!
I often forget that our home office needs some TLC too! For me, this is one of the easier rooms to clean in our house so it often goes neglected due to the thought “Oh, I will get to that later. The kids don’t go in there!”
However, by printing (and following!) my master list of household cleaning jobs found on my Household Cleaning Tips Series page, the home office will not be forgotten!
Here are my tips on How to Clean Your Home Office Fast
Tip 1: Sort your mail every day. The junk mail can pile up real fast, so by sorting the mail each day, you won’t ‘misplace’ the important stuff. And you won’t have piles of useless paper lying about!
Tip 2: Take mugs/plates to the kitchen daily.
Tip 3: Keep your tools where you need them! I keep a duster in a cabinet in my office!
Tip 4: Pick a day. I like to do this early in the week. By doing this first thing Monday morning (or Sunday evening) you will have a clean, organized space to work in for the week.
I believe that a #clean space promotes better work habits. http://t.co/iRx8boJo31 #cleaningtips #bloggers
