Episode Monday Motivation #54 | Top-Down Spring Cleaning: Ceilings, Fans, Lights & Everything Overhead
Send me a text about this episode!
This week, we’re kicking off the “real” work of spring cleaning with a top-down approach—starting with what’s overhead: ceilings, vents, fans, lights, and fixtures.
You’ll learn why cleaning from the top down saves time (and re-cleaning), how overhead dust impacts indoor air quality, and what simple tools make the job safer and easier.
Plus, I’ll walk you through a step-by-step method for dry cleaning first, then safely tackling grime and stains with just a little moisture—so you can freshen your home without creating new problems.
