Fall is here already... with cooler weather, stylish scarfs, colorful leaves, and pumpkin spice everything and I feel so happy about it all! While fall is such a happy time, it means my schedule is getting busier and with Delainey in the picture, things are really busy this year! If you're anything like me, you have a hundred commitments, a handful of appointments, and maybe even a newborn baby cooing at you. It's a busy time in my life, but so rewarding too! Instead of slacking off on my housekeeping, I've found ways to make keeping my house clean a little easier.

1. Use stylish storage to keep your stuff organized - It's true, we all have junk drawers and a closet full of stuff that we may need in the future. Instead of stuffing it all in a cubby and hoping it doesn't fall out when a guest visits, find some awesome storage options and give everything in your home "a place it belongs". I love a quick visit to The Container Store to get my stuff organized, with bins, bags, and storage options galore - I know they have everything I'll need to get my house in order!

2. Vacuum, spot-clean, and Febreze furniture, blankets, and cushions - While it's wise to do this regularly, with a busy lifestyle, sometimes you can only manage to deep clean furniture once a season! I highly suggest making sure you do this during the Fall, to get rid of stinky summertime smells and to refresh your home with awesome smells like Febreze Big Sur. Refreshing and inviting, your home feels new when you take the time to clean your furniture!

3. Wash the windows, drapes, and blinds - This may seem like you're overdoing the cleaning thing but it's so nice to have fresh windows to see the beautiful weather through! Take a few minutes while you're tidying things in each room and wipe down your windows and if you have some extra time, open the latch and wipe down the outside of the window as well! After your windows are nice and clean, use a duster to get the blinds or take down the drapes and give them a good wash - while they may not appear dirty, you'll notice how much dust goes flying if this isn't a regular chore on your list.

4. Deep clean the floors - Sweep, Swiffer, vacuum, and scrub all the places you walk often. These high traction areas are prone to dirt and while you may clean your floors often, it's good to deep clean these areas at lease once a season! I love using my Swiffer all year round, but scrubbing the floors is something I don't do as regularly but I definitely notice a difference when I do.

5. Organize closets and cupboards - Taking the time to change out your clothing from Summer wear to Winter coats is a good step in the right direction, but also take a moment to rid your closet of unwanted items. While you're at it, go through your cupboards and cabinets in your kitchen and bathroom and get rid of expired items - whether it's a spice that no longer seems to be as pungent or a compact that you've had for a little bit too long, purge and let it go!
