Take 5 is really effective in our home. It is a system that is organized, and covers lots of extras to add the finishing touches to my home, like cleaning out under the sink, throwing away empty shampoo bottles and wiping around the sink. These tasks are simple, but their contribution towards my clean home is amazing.
Thanks Jan!
I agree!
I am doing 5 minutes of decluttering under the kitchen sink today – expecting great things :0)
I’ve started this end-of-week quick bathroom tidy-up only 2 Saturdays ago, and was happy to notice this morning that there were no empty shampoo bottles on the shelf!
