Easy Clean-ups

 

There are some messes that you just don't want to deal with. Here are some ways to make sure that clean-ups are easy for you!

 

 

1. Cooking can make a mess of your stove. If you spray your drip pans with some non-stick cooking spray before you start they will be a lot easier to clean up when you're finished. (Just make sure that you take the drip pans off and spray away from the stove).

2. Phones, switch plates and doorknobs get dirty and grimy on a regular basis. To clean them quick, just put a little rubbing alcohol on a soft cloth and wipe! It cleans and disinfects all of those areas in no time flat! For an even faster clean up keep some pre-moistened wipes on hand, they're ready to use whenever you need them!
