Starting from cleaning up and wiping the dust
The living room is a common living space, so it is very easy to be messy if not cleaned regularly. To clean effectively, the first step is to remove unnecessary furniture. Collect items that do not belong to the living room and rearrange them in the right place. This helps the space become neat immediately.
Then, proceed to wipe the dust according to the principle from top to bottom. Start from the high shelf, fan the ceiling, then the tables and chairs to prevent dust from falling back onto the cleaned areas. Using microfiber towels will help keep dust better and limit it from spreading into the air.
According to Mr. Will Cotter - owner of FreshSpace Cleaning (USA): "Cleaning will be more effective if you handle the mess first, then clean the surface. This saves time and effort.
Cleaning furniture, floors and windows
After wiping the dust, switch to cleaning the interior. The sofa chair needs to be thoroughly vacuumed, especially in the gaps. With pillow covers or mattress covers, it should be washed periodically to remove bacteria and unpleasant odors. Wood or leather furniture can be wiped with a specialized solution to maintain durability and shine.
Next is the floor, the area that accumulates the most dust. You should vacuum before wiping. For carpets, you can sprinkle baking soda to deodorize and then vacuum again after a few minutes. For hard floors, you should only wipe with a damp cloth to avoid water staining causing damage.
Finally, the window. Cleaning the glass helps increase natural light, making the space more airy. You should use a soft towel and glass cleaning solution to avoid faint streaks.
Expert Karina Toner - operating manager at Spekless Cleaning (USA), said: "A clean living room is not only about the surface but also about the feeling of space. Light and neatness play a very important role.
Maintaining the habit of cleaning every day, even for a few minutes, will help keep the living room clean and create a comfortable feeling for the whole family.
