Spring Cleaning in the Fall
August 17th, 2010 | 
Author: I get the bug every year. Around the time school is getting ready to start I have a deep desire to clean and decorate the home.
It’s not unknown you know. Autumn Cleaning
Some years I’m better at it than others. This year I seem to want to decorate. Our master bedroom needs some love badly so I’m taking my time about it but making changes in a few things. No paint but bed and maybe a tiny bit of new furniture. I also need to purge and organize the home office to make space for all that goes on there. How many paint sets, crayons, workbooks, scrap paper, construction paper, chalk pieces, pens, tapes, scissors and glue does a five year old need anyway? And she knows if I’ve gotten rid of something.
But enough about me. Here are a couple of tools and sites I’ve been visiting as of late…
Haven of Home. I’m just having an all around good read here. Roxanne’s blog is a delight to read and she makes no apologies for enjoying the 50′s. Although this is from her spring cleaning series circa 2009 I like it for any time of year. She starts with decluttering her home room by room and then cleaning and then decorating. (The link I’m sending you to is for the Spring Cleaning series.)
Spring Cleaning Year Round. These are just so cute. If you’re having trouble keeping on top of your chores consider picking up one of these darling chore boxes. Decorated so cute how could you help but keep on track? You will want to display this in a prime spot where you can smile at it’s sunny disposition each day. If you do end up ordering can you tell her Q&Q sent you? Thanks!

Hi Jamie! Thanks for dropping by. I think you’re right.
Roxanne please, pretty please blog about your “Brawn Week”. I need encouragement too! I think it’s great you’ve got your son involved.
Travis how could I miss you! Your chore boxes are VERY cute! Cleaning and organizing needs an attractive cuteness factor to keep us interested. Your boxes fit the bill.
Thanks for the exposure! How did you find me?? Business is getting ramped up and I appreciate your contribution to my traffic! Would love to hear from you via e-mail prachars6(at)yahoo(dot)com
Thanks for the shout out for my blog!
I love spring/fall cleaning. It eases us into the next half of the year so nicely. When I do it all at once like that, to me I can actually “feel” the clean. (But then someone comes along and messes it all up again LOL)
Next week we’re doing a “Brawn Week” before jumping into school. My son is not a fan. Too bad–it’s good for all of us!
I love the encouragement and “kick in the pants” I get from reading housekeeping blogs. We’ve got to do it, so we might as well enjoy it.
Hi! I found your site through the blog challenge.
I homeschool as well and tend to want to do fall cleaning. I think it is because homeschooling tends to take over the home.
