January 18 - Laundry area!

Good morning everyone!

Today's task is one of the oxymoron areas in our homes--cleaning a cleaning area.  This one won't take you too long but check-off another small area of our homes that we often otherwise overlook every day we pass it.  See you tomorrow!  --Aimee

For Wednesday, January 18th:

***Clean-up your laundry area***

(get rid of 10-year old bleaches & other products you never use--I was guilty of Dyrel, wipe down counter/drawer areas, and wipe down your washer & dryer while you're at it!)

You can safely flush old products down a septic tank or small amounts down a drain.  Or--run some through your washer by itself on the smallest load!  I also highly recommend Tide washing machine cleaner you run through by itself.  It took away any hint of mildew odors from my washer/clothes.

Before (you can't tell, but my counter really needed a good wash-down)

After (sometimes corralling things into a bin like I did can help you have limited space to avoid over-cluttering again)
