Making Your Home a Haven Monday: Spring-Cleaning the Master Bedroom
"Homemaking--if pursued with energy, imagination, and skills--has much challenge and opportunity, success, failure, growth and expansion, perks and incentives as any corporation, plus something no other position offers--working for people you love most and want to please the most!"I loved the above quote and hope all it encourages all of you who are homemakers, homemakers-in-training, or wanna-be homemakers today! And with that encouragement, today's Making Your Home a Haven assignment is to Spring-Clean your Master Bedroom!-Dorothy Kelley Patterson, Where's Mom? The High Calling of Wives and Mothers, pg. 47 (I highly recommend this book--read my review here.)
Following Monica's lead, I'm planning to:
-Pick up and put all out of place items away
-Wash all the sheets and bedding
-Dust
-Spot-clean the walls
-Organize my dresser drawers
-Vacuum--including underneath our bed
-And maybe more if I have enough time!
I'll be back later with before and after pictures and some more thoughts on schedules and routines continued from last week.

Great plan Crystal! We recently cleaned out a lot of stuff in our master bedroom, so it would be a great idea to tackle the deep cleaning of it now. I'll definitely be doing that this week.
YIKES a scary thought... the master bedroom. Clutter central!
I got some Basic H from a local Shaklee person. I mixed up a low concentration in a spray bottle; it worked fine... but THEN the boys saw me. I had to mix up a spray bottle for each boy and they went to town on my kitchen. It was a hoot! Sure the floor was a little wet but the table, chairs, and appliances are basically wiped down. Thanks for the tip to find Basic H.
What kind of things do you have in your bedroom that make it nice for your and your husband? Right now we are in a small house and we all tend to spend alot of family time in our bedroom because if that is where I am, they want to be there too and I want them to be. Anyway to combine a family friendly room and a haven for you and your husband? We do not have much clutter or anything in my bedroom, 3 lrg dressers, a small crib, 2 small dressers and drawers under the bed (we have a small closet)
I didn't work on my master bedroom today...I had to tackle something smaller...
