Cleaning my entrance door

I am going to share more cleaning  tips .. I 'm not saying I am a neat freak!!! because I'm not .. I am not a Domestic Goddess too.. My Hubby would be happy if I am .. ha ha ha.... but I'm just a regular mom who cleans up and sometimes just laze around or( blog around )  Well sometimes I have to resist my blogging urge.. As if my Macoy ( my Mac's name ) is calling me... I have to finish my chores first as I say to myself ... 
I read a lot about anything like speed cleaning, getting organized,, and getting much needed tips to keep my life Sane!!!!!! 
Yes... and I try and test those tips and find out which one suits me and which is effective....

Well this weeks tip is Cleaning your Entrance 
The entrance of your house is very important to keep clean because this is the first thing that he visitor will see.. So get all your cleaning equipments ready .. I also have a basket ready so I can put all the things that does not belong to that place.. .. Its what they call Clutter basket..

Clear any cobwebs outside the front door... I use a long broom for this;  making sure every corner is clean..
Wipe the door  ,, then clean your door hardware  , making sure you're using an appropriate cleaner.. For Brass try using vinegar on a cloth,, wiping it properly to kill germs and wipe the hand markings off..
Shake you entrance mat;  water any plants , give it a trim and take away dead leaves..
Make your entrance look inviting ,, by placing some pot plants next to the door,, it will also be a good Feng Shui , or try to place a door mat which says WELCOME... there are cheeky door mats that I've seen but I guess having a WELCOME sign is far more better...  Once you've done that .. its your choice  continue inside or grab a cup of tea or coffee,relax and unwind at least you've done something  .. 
Watch out for more....

Organizing my shoes





Clean UP!!!!!!

That was our weekend..

Spring time here in Oz and what a better day to spend the day by organizing my wardrobe..
Ages ago I bought clear shoe boxes from ALDI  and I never finished doing it.... So this weekend , I said to myself , enough procrastinating and finish the task that I've been wanting to do for some time now...

On my left I 've got a shoe box but its not really clear ; the one on the right is a Clear Rigid box. I like it because I can see what's inside it clearly and it also comes with a Silica sachet to keep the moist out...

WFMW Getting Organized


Works For Me: The Kitchen Organization Edition

This is my first entry for WORKS FOR ME.... by Rocks In My Dryer

I've also posted this on my other site  whenmomtalks

I'm so Hyped Up!!!!!!
I've been watching shows about make overs and organizing and visiting some  organizing site and they gave me so much inspiration and motivation to start organizing and cleaning up my clutter..

So I'll be starting some of my make overs on my blog ,, I would like to share it with others , so that they can also find inspiration and start doing things that they are planning for a long time..

So I will start with my 1st organizing task..

The other day I organized my tupperwares and plastic containers..

I opened my top drawer and there it was all stuffed up and sometimes some of them falls out ; and I cannot even close the cup board properly....

This is the BEFORE


I took them all out of the cupboard ,, then took the lid out and placed them all in a big container..
Then nestled the container n top of each other,, I did it by shapes,, so big shapes under then nestled in... I've taken out 2 Ice cream containers and some lids without a partner...



Look at the Big difference!!! Wow!!! I was quite elated when I saw the outcome.....
