30-Day Deep Cleaning Challenge

Welcome to the kick-off video for my 30 Days to Spring Deep Cleaning Challenge! This challenge will run from Tuesday February 18th to Wednesday March 18th. If you have time to join me on this challenge, the goal is to be done cleaning by the first day of spring!

Last year, I created a 30 days to spring tidying challenge (based on the KonMari method) and it was so rewarding. While my condo still does get messy, I've been able to keep it a lot tidier than previous years, and it's also lovely to feel like I don't *need* to declutter anymore. I wanted to do something similar this year, so I thought cleaning would be a good way to count down the last 30 days of winter and get myself excited for the spring.

Staring tomorrow, I'm going to be deep cleaning my condo every day for 30 days. I've divided my condo into small areas so I can get everything done in a systematic way — hopefully, right in time for the first day of spring on Thursday March 19th. I won't be posting daily videos this time around, but I'll record some bits (likely the closet, wall unit, bathroom cabinets, and kitchen). I plan to put some time lapse footage in my vlogs as well.

I live in a tiny condo but it's full of stuff and there's quite a lot to clean. Depending on the size of your home, how much stuff you have, and how many people live with you, your cleaning schedule may be longer or shorter, and that's totally ok! My main goal is to go through my entire home in a systematic way. If the next 30 days go well, I'm hoping this will be a recurring challenge that I can engage year after year.

Please let me know if you have a system for cleaning your home, when you like to do this, and if you have any cleaning tips to share. Thank you for watching! :) x

I was thinking of doing a cleaning challenge during Lent, which starts next Wednesday. I'll set a timer for 40 minutes (since Lent is 40 days) and spend that time cleaning my room. If I can get my family on board, I'd like to include other rooms. If not, then I might go through my stuff that's elsewhere in the house. (I really hope it doesn't take me 40 days to clean just my room, but it's pretty cluttered.) Looking forward to your updates!

I am so enjoying this challenge, we only have a small house but there are so many areas that I have been putting off for way to long!

Love this! So looking forward to watching this series it’s so motivating. I’ve been watching your videos since the Glambox/Luxe box days 👍🏻

I am definitely going to be joining in! I did the 40 bags in 40 days decluttering challenge last year for lent and I really enjoyed that. I have noticed some parts of my flat looking a bit grubby recently so I want to get it all clean ready for summer.

I don’t do a total deep clean of our house. It’s too big and there are 5 people and 3 cats living here. I just clean things when they need cleaning or when I notice that a certain area needs attention. I guess it doesn’t help that my Moms areas of the house are pretty dirty. She isn’t the best housekeeper and it gets frustrating!
