A Taste of Spring Cleaning

Things have been rather chaotic around the house the past few weeks. We are in the middle of constructing a surprise (don't worry, I'll tell you all about it later!). And of course with the warmer weather comes the annual Spring Cleaning! If you're like me, I like to spend as little time as possible cleaning and prefer to start small. Here's a great way to start your spring cleaning and all it requires is doing a load of wash.


How To De-Stink Your Towels
Wash your towels on the hot cycle and add 1 cup of vinegar. Don't use detergent or anything else, just vinegar and hot water. This always does the trick for me, but if you still notice any lingering smells rewash them with hot water and 1/2 cup of baking soda. That's it. Simple right? Just remember to be careful about mixing colors with hot water. The colors may bleed so just wash them separately or with like colors. Afterwards, I always prefer to dry my towels with the Febreeze Bounce dryer sheets and they always smell wicked clean and fresh!
