.:. SPRING CLEANING .:. Week 5

Welcome back to the Spring Cleaning 2008 thread!

Some of us may still be working on last week’s space, but that’s okay. Keep plugging away on that and as soon as you finish, move onto this week’s list.

- Minor decluttering

- Clean any stains with stain removers
- Change out your seasonal throw pillows and throw blankets, cleaning the ones you’re taking out of seasonal service before putting into storage
- Scotchguard
- This is a good time to schedule a professional carpet cleaning, alternately, you could steam clean them yourself. If your carpet is matted, whether due to wear or a piece of furniture that was there, steam will re-shape it and make it plush again. For small areas (such as where furniture leg was situated, you can use a moist paper towel and clothes iron to bring it
