GIVEAWAY | Three people will receive spots in Mary Ann Moss's online class Remains Of The Day.
Remains Of The Day is the antidote for all of those paper scraps that keep multiplying in your favorite scrap box and clogging up your artistic super highway. In this process AND project oriented class we’ll be constructing a shabby but sturdy journal (like this one) using all of that paper you’ve been hoarding. Ordinary life never looked better than seen through the pages of this stitched up journal of scraps.

Sadly I don't do the whole Spring cleaning thing. I'm fortunate to have a house keeper 2x a month. Plus I do my version of Spring cleaning through out the year. Thank you for the opportunity.

Get together with another family and have a garage sale! It helps motivate you to clean and make a little spring fun money too. This class looks amazing.

I like to put on some loud music and take one closet, drawer, etc. at a time. Soon you'll have so many piles you'll have to start throwing things away and designating thinge to donate. It really works,,,

The best tip I have for spring cleaning is to crank up some peppy music that I love. It gets you going.

For stuff that I haven't used in a while but still hesitate to get rid of, I give them to a relative or good friend who I know will put them to good use. I don't feel so bad afterwards.:)

As soon as I clean items out that I don't want or need I put them in my car to take to Goodwill the next chance I get!

Spring cleaning is all about checking the closets for stacks of paper stuff you thought you needed to save...magazine, etc. and then get the dumpster out and toss!

I'm passionate about Spring cleaning. I really do get that bug to just pitch the clutter and make everything shiny. I like to clean my windows with dishwasher soap because of the rinse agent included in the formula that leaves no streaks. We are still buried under a blanket of green pollen from all the oak trees budding out, so window cleaning is still a few weeks away for me! This class looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!

Wait until after tax season! And then clean everything. Not really a tip, more of a scheduling thing.

My favorite spring cleaning tip is a way to eliminate "stuff". If I haven't used an item since the last spring cleaning, then it goes!

Love this giveaway!!!....
And my cleaning tips are to use solution 10% vinegar and 90% water in the spray bottle and clean just everything! Eco friendly and efficient! To spread some soda powder on the mattresses and vacuum it after some time, to put the pillow under the sun and wind!! To add some drops of lavender oil to the bucket of water to clean the floor.. And the fresh air, of course!…

I don't particularly "Spring" clean, but totally agree with the comments of opening the windows to freshen up the house. In whatever season I do clean, my first task is to declutter and basically find everything an organized place to belong.
By the way, love the idea of this class!

clean out closets so they are never more than half full.....every time you open the closet, it makes you feel good to see space. continued benefits all year.

I target one small area that I know I have time to attack and finish - clear, sort, and clean. only when that little space is finished do I move on to the next small section/drawer/shelf/cupboard - be it directly or the next day or whenever. my biggest problem is getting the sorted out stuff out of the house! LOL.

Thanks for the giveaway, Ali. You are always coming up with such great ones. Spring cleaning? Mom and I are pretty neat from the start. We are also decluttering divas. So our spring cleaning tip is to have things in their place so that cleaning is a matter of just taking care of the seasonal things--washing the sheers, cleaning the windows, wiping down the walls, etc.

What a fun class, would love to win it! I definately have the stash to go with it!! I guess that would be my spring tip, although I do it about every 4 months. I hate to throw my left over parts and pieces away. So as I am working I put them into a box. Then I take that box and organize them. I put things into categories usually of certain themes or by colors. I have baggies I then put them in. This makes it easier to find later when I want something. Thanks so much for the great give away!!
