Want an Organised House Without Lifting a Finger…These Cleaning Hacks Will Blow You Away!

Awesome Cleaning Hacks

I don’t know many people out there who would say that they love spending their days cleaning and organising their homes. Sure, we all love a neat and tidy house, but really… who on earth has hours upon hours to spend on boring house-y jobs? There’s so many better things to do with our time… like watch a movie, have a glass of wine or eat an entire block of chocolate (hehe ok maybe that last one’s just me).

These amazing hacks are going to totally blow your mind – and cut your cleaning/tidying time down dramatically. Best of all, you won’t believe how simple they are!

Kids Toys

Are you sick of telling your kids to put their toys away? LEGO driving you insane? Yep, we know the feeling! Save yourself hours of tidying up time by filling a bookshelf with easy-to-read labels and containers. This way, when your little one finishes playing, there’s no excuse for not putting their own toys away. Having a special spot for everything makes tidying up a breeze!

Rubbish Bag Storage

Where do you keep your bin liners? Probably rolling around in a drawer, right? Pop your bin liners on a roll inside a cupboard for super tidy storage (and they’re so easy to get out!).
