Cleaning takes roughly 24 hours per month and more than 5 hours per week, according to certain research. You may cut down on this time by using some life hacks and creating a cleaner interior design plan.\n
Today, we want to share some tips that will help to make your home cleaner.\n
\n
After washing the dishes, there can still be a lot of water left on the countertop. If you don\u2019t wipe it off in time, the surface will absorb the moisture and may even get ruined. To make the surface last longer, don\u2019t be cheap about it \u2014 choose marble or granite. If you can\u2019t afford such materials, it\u2019s better to use tiles or some other really durable option. Ideally, the sink and the countertop should be on the same surface without any lines between them. This way, it will be really easy for you to wipe the water and dirt into the sink.\n
No matter how careful you are, grease from cooking food will still appear on the walls. And if the kitchen wall has a lot of different dips and patterns, the grease will be really hard to clean. If possible, choose smooth tiles \u2014 ones without seams are even better. Such tiles are way easier to clean. If you already have tiles on your kitchen wall, you can protect the surface with special glass.\n
If your furniture has handles with a complicated design, lots of dust and dirt will pile up on them. In order not to spend many hours and tons of money replacing the handles, buy smooth-surface handles of simple colors. Also, while you\u2019re at the store, touch all the handles there. Choose the ones where the least amount of stains are visible.\n
There\u2019s an opinion that garbage disposals are the next most useful thing in the kitchen after the dishwasher. And now, there are sinks with built-in disposals you can buy or you can get a separate device. It will protect you from clogged pipes and save you a lot of money.\n
Textured floors are cool and attractive \u2014 up until the moment you have to wash them. Dirt and dust get into the seams, so instead of just wiping the surface, you\u2019ll have to spend time cleaning every seam. To avoid this problem, choose smooth floors. Different rooms require different surfaces in terms of water-resistance \u2014 don\u2019t forget about that.\n
How often do you clean the dust from under and above the furniture? Not much, right? Of course, the furniture that doesn\u2019t have any space under it or above it won\u2019t protect you from dust but it will reduce the amount of it that collects. Besides, such furniture looks very modern today. Avoid open shelves, if possible.\n
\n
Very often, people put wallpaper on their walls but not all of them can be washed. The thing is, the areas next to things like light switches get dirty very often, according to the Bright Side authors, which is why wallpaper that can be washed is the best choice.\n
Housewives agree: induction cookers are much easier to wash than any other surface. They don\u2019t get hot which is why pieces of fallen food don\u2019t get burned. Even if milk drips on the surface, all you need to do is wipe it off.\n
\n
The color black definitely looks great but it\u2019s not all that practical. Dark surfaces look as if they attract more dust. This isn\u2019t true, of course, but dust contrasts with the color black, so it\u2019s really visible. When choosing your furniture, make sure you choose other colors, such as gray or brown.\n
If possible, make sure that the toilet doesn\u2019t even reach the floor \u2014 it will make it super easy to clean the dust around it. Also, hide the tank in the wall. It\u2019s simple: no tank means no additional surface for the dust to collect on.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
