Home Care & Maintenance

Here is a check list, reference - guide which works well anytime the season's change; it addresses all the stuff we should do every once & awhile, which we normally don't like to deal with on a day to day basis.

Have fun & let us know how we can help further!

HERE WE GO:

-CLEAN ALL OF YOUR FURNITURE WELL, USING SOMETHING LIKE MURPHY'S OIL

SOAP & WATER 

-WAX OR OIL YOUR WOOD FURNISHINGS; THINK OF IT AS A MAKEOVER FOR YOUR FURNITURE; JUST LIKE OUR SKIN, IT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED AND WELL MOISTURIZED & MAINTAINED! THIS SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT EVERY THREE MONTHS.

-NOW, STEP INTO THE BEDROOM. FLIP YOUR BED MATTRESS OVER & ROTATE IT SO THE HEAD WOULD BE AT THE FOOT. EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR BED BY DOING THIS!

-THEN, CHECK THE GOOSE DOWN COMFORTER , CHECK TO SEE IF IT NEEDS TO BE DRY CLEANED!

-OK, NOW CROSS THE ROOM, OVER TO THE CLOSETS......FOR THOSE WHO I DIRECT THIS ONE TO, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!! IT'S TIME TO CLEAN OUR CLOSETS! TAKE ALL THE THINGS WHICH NEED TO BE DRY CLEANED, TO THE CLEANERS. GATHER UP THE SHOES ON THE FLOOR AND MATCH UP THE PAIRS NEATLY. FOLD ALL YOUR SEASONAL CLOTHES & GET READY FOR THE NEW SEASON; FINDING A DRY, CLEAN STORAGE PLACE FOR THE SEASON'S PAST BELONGINGS. (Use zippered plastic bags or plastic containers; to store the season's past stuff)

-NEXT, CHECK THE BATTERIES IN ALL THE SMOKE DETECTORS AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS & CHANGE THEM IF NECESSARY

-HAVE THE CHIMNEY CHECKED OUT & CLEANED PROPERLY

-CLEAN AND BRING OUT THE OUTDOOR PATIO FURNITURE

-LAST, BUT NOT LEAST..... CLEAN OUT THE GARAGE! SWEEP, STACK, STORE AND THROW AWAY!! BRING OUT ALL THE SUMMER TOYS AWAY & BREAK OUT THE GARDEN TOOLS FOR THE HERE AND NOW.

Thanks for reading our silly yet practical list, and let us know if any of suggestions helped YOU!
