There’s usually a quick and easy solution to most household cleaning tasks, if only you know how. GMTV’s one minute ‘spring spruce’ slots have some ingenious time saving tips.
GMTV - One Minute Spring Spruce Tips
Featuring Linda Barker and Aggie MacKenzie, of ‘Kim and Aggie – How Clean is Your House’ fame, they cover all areas of the home and are full of ideas for making life easier.
As usual, Aggie suggests some cunning applications for household products that you would never think of yourself in a million years – how about using worcester sauce to clean your brass or vinegar for cleaning stainless steel taps?
Linda Barker is the queen of clutter busting and has some unusual but useful storage tips, such as using a wine rack as a towel stand or even a magazine rack.
One particularly clever tip shows you how to use your vacuum cleaner to vacuum pack duvets and sleeping bags, so they don’t take up as much room.
Linda also suggests the ‘one in one out’ rule for keeping clutter under control. This means that every time you introduce a new item to your room you should dispose of an existing item – easier said than done, I know!
I always find the tips on visual guides like these videos a lot easier to remember than lists on websites, especially if they are short and sweet, like these are.
You can watch all these videos on the GMTV website alongside full transcripts, in case you prefer the written word.
