Thinking about cleaning? These 15 Cleaning Tips are for me! I can imagine my house saying to my guests things like… Dear Guest, thank you because my owner scrubbed behind the toilet for the very first time in months. Thank you, because every bed smells fresh and clean. Thank you, because the floor has been mopped, the mirrors are sparkling, and the bathtub doesn’t have any laundry inside. Thank YOU. Sincerely, Desirée’s House!
Seriously! If my house could talk it would thank every single visitor that comes to stay overnight.
Let take a look at these I thought to share Best 15 Cleaning Tips that I have found around!

Tomorrow I am cutting up lemons and rubbing them on my bathtub drains, and the chrome around my shower. Even though it is Sunday…..I can’t wait until Monday. Those things bother me with a capital B and I have never come across a good solution until tonight. Thanks for sharing!
My house would say the same and more! Thanks for sharing these tips.
You are very welcome!
Dear Desiree’s House-I am SO jealous! I will try to get Lisa to use these tricks pronto! XO, Lisa’s house
Hahahaha!
Too funny!
Okay I cannot wait to try out the dryer sheet trick along with the lemon!! Thanks for the tips and goodness knows my house is the same way. Minor maintenance until people have to come over. LOL!
Thanks for compiling this awesome list! I’m pinning right now. =)
Laundry in the bathtub… Definitely have done that before… especially when my one-year old was spitting up a lot and giving me tons of diaper blowouts to clean up several months ago. My ‘to-scrub’ pile was never-ending! I joke with some of my momma friends that we have a ‘real’ house and a ‘fake’ house. ;]
These are all so great – thanks for sharing!
I just said to myself last night… self, thank goodness the kids have new friends over from time to time so the house gets clean. Don’t want strangers knowing how messy it gets!
Gotta pin because I need like all of these tips. Gonna try a lime on the shower today, don’t have a lemon.
~Bliss~

Thanks for putting these all in one place! I so have to try that dryer sheet in the bathroom trick!!
