Hello, my darlings! After a fun summer day at the pool here in Bedford, we often find ourselves dealing with wet towels, sandy floors, and other poolside messes. But don’t worry—getting your home back to normal after a day of summer fun doesn’t have to be a hassle! Here are some handy cleaning hacks to make the process easier and quicker.
- Dealing with Wet Towels: After a day of swimming, towels can be soaked and heavy. Instead of letting them pile up, hang them outside to dry. The fresh summer air will help them dry quickly and prevent any musty smells. If you don’t have a clothesline, hang them in the bathroom or over a towel rack. For a quicker dry, toss them in the dryer with a few dryer balls to fluff them up.
- Cleaning Sand from Floors: Whether it’s from the poolside or your backyard, sand, dirt or debris seems to find its way into the house. To quickly remove it, grab a lint roller or tape and roll it over sandy spots on the floor or furniture. For larger messes, use a vacuum with a hose attachment to suck up the sand from carpets or mats.
- Wipe Down Surfaces: Summer pool days often leave behind a residue of sunscreen, chlorine, and sweat. Use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe down all surfaces, including tables, chairs, and countertops. For a natural cleaner, mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle to remove any sticky spots.
- Freshen Up the Air: After a long day of sun and poolside fun, the house can sometimes feel a little stuffy. Open windows to let fresh summer air circulate and place a few bowls of baking soda around to absorb any lingering odors.
With these simple cleaning hacks, your Bedford home will be back to its sparkling self in no time. Happy cleaning, my dears, and may your summer pool days always bring fun and relaxation!
