Cleaning your appliances

Over labor day weekend we finished the deep cleaning!

Deep cleaning is a horrible process of systematically going through every room, closet, and space in my house, taking everything out, organizing, and cleaning floor to ceiling. 

This year I worked on it from May - September and it seemed to never end.

But, on the flip side the results of deep cleaning are amazing! Living in an orgainzed space, getting rid of clutter, knowing that my walls are free of scum, etc. is a great feeling that is the main motivator to keep going.

One of my favorite things to clean is our appliances. 



Who would have thought that cleaning your appliances- the major things that do the cleaning for you- could be so fun! I love the result of having a clean fridge, dishwasher, oven, washer, and dryer. It feels like I got all new appliances after the scum, smears, and messes are washed away.



So here's to an enjoyable fall with no more deep cleaning checklist looming over my shoulder.

What project to tackle next.....

I'm glad to read that you as so pleased with the results, Jord. I just always thought that deep cleaning was a big pain in the rear. Good for you to be so happy with the results.

Way to go on doing your deep cleaning again this year. Do you hire out? I didn't get mine all the way done. Your appliances look like new!

Deep cleaning is a must! I can't sleep thinking about what lives behind or in those things that always get over look on the weekly cleaning list. Good job for sticking it through!

Good for you! I just cleaned out from under the fridge and the stove. Icky. I feel much better about being in the kitchen though.
