6. The tops of doors, cabinets, or other pieces of furniture

We are sure that one of the places you forget to clean is the top of your wardrobe or the top of your doors or picture frames. And we can understand why this happens. Usually, all of these places are up high and not easily accessible to most of us.

But next time you are cleaning, try to look up and stop ignoring these surfaces that you usually don’t see. Make sure to regularly clean the tops of picture frames, ceiling corners, tall storage cupboards, cabinetry in the kitchen, and door frames.

Make sure you check the ceiling fans and lighting fixtures while you’re up there. The most effective tool for gathering dust and spider webs is an extendable-handled disposable duster.

In case you don’t have one, use a new microfiber towel and attach it with an elastic band to the handle of a broom or mop.

  1. There is a 7th place you didn’t mention:
    People who has 65 inches plasma/flat screen TV hooked up in the wall.
    Nobody never knew how much dust stick to the back of that TV because nobody ever go up and look….
    Or they can’t.

    1. That is so funny that you said that! I dust behind the TV’s on the walls. I have a TV on my kitchen wall and as you walk in, you are able to see behind the tv.. especially when we position the tv so we can watch TV from the sunroom.

  2. If you have ever been in the military and did boot camp you learn to clean everything, including the inside of the top of a tube of toothpaste. I know. My area was always ready for a white glove inspection. I even washed my shoe strings.

  3. I may not always clean those places, but its not that I forgot. Those are more spring cleaning jobs I forget about the front of the toilet bowl to the floor. Under the kitchen sink and the garbage disposal. The upstairs guest bathroom that isnt used often. Hairbrushes and curling irons. Clean hair out of drains. (First time I did that in my new house, I thought it was a mouse! Dogs paws especially if winter and walks are salted. Window sills between window and screens. Inside of enclosed gas fireplace. (Was recommended every 4 yrs by company) I used to laugh at my Mom when I saw cobb webs hanging in the corner of the ceiling. Now that Im 72, its not so funny anymore. So much work, but so nice those 10 minutes a year its all done.

  4. Lotta pressure, rise above it. You gotta harness in the good energy, block out the bad. Harness energy, block bad. Feel it. Its circular. It’s like a carousel. You pay the quarter, get on the horse. It goes up and down, and around, circular, circle, with the music the flow all good things.

  5. I clean every one of those places and more. I don’t think you give most people enough credit.
    My house is very clean. I could not relax if it wasn’t
