POST-HOLIDAY GLOW

Holiday gatherings may make the season jolly and bright, but they can also leave your house in need of a deep clean and de-cluttering. The new year is a great time to bring back order and cleanli- ness to your home and tick off some home maintenance chores you may have neglected last year.
Not sure where to start? Check out these top cleaning tips that will whip your house into shape and help you start 2023 with a clean and tidy abode.
1. REDUCE CLUTTER
When you get home from a long day at work, you want your environ- ment to be tidy to help you relax. An easy way to keep things tidy is to make sure everything has a place so you can quickly put away items and maintain a neat and calming environ- ment. Bins, baskets and other orga- nizational items can make it simple to get into the habit of putting things away so you can capture clutter be- fore it starts.
2. DEEP CLEAN THE FLOORS
Your floors accumulate dirt, dust and crumbs from everyday use, es- pecially high-traffic areas like the main entrance, kitchen, living room and bathroom. In using tools like the Casabella Infuse mop and Casa- bella ToughSweep XL broom, you can quickly deep clean linoleum, laminate, vinyl and sealed hardwood flooring to keep messes at bay.
The spray mop comes with a re- usable microfiber mopping pad that is safe to use on most flooring, while the broom’s angled bristles can help you tackle tough corners.
How often do you clean your dry- er vent? If you have to run the dryer twice to fully dry laundry, it’s time to unclog. To start, you’ll need to disconnect the dryer and clear away

6. FRESHEN UP THE FURNITURE
any lint from the vent pipe, wall pip- ing and dryer opening. Plus, you’ll want to make sure to remove and clean the vent cover on the outside of your home.
4. DUST EASY AND HARD- TO-REACH AREAS
Easy-to-reach areas, like window- sills, shelves and picture frames, should be thoroughly dusted once a month. With hard-to-reach places, like high shelves, ceiling fans and books, you can go up to three months between dustings. To make dusting easier, use a tool like the Casabella Extendable Microfiber Duster, which extends up to 35 inches to easily clean hard-to-reach spaces.
5. CLEAN EVERY CREVICE OF THE KITCHEN
There are crevices and tight spaces in your kitchen that can quickly col- lect dust and grime, but since they’re out of sight, they’re also out of mind. Move appliances to clean under and behind them. For example, the space under and behind the refrigerator is a magnet for hair, crumbs and dust, so make sure to add this space to the must-clean list in the new year.
Your upholstered furniture attracts and traps dirt, dust and hair. To keep your furniture in good condition and clean, you’ll want to regularly vacu-
