Products I Recommend Work Smarter Not Harder

I’m not sure about all of you, but I tend to stick to what I’m use to using and I find myself to be stuck in my old fashioned ways. I see new products and think: yeah, that doesn’t work. And then realize how I’m only making things harder on myself. Does it sound like anyone you know? I use to swear by a mop and bucket. I have to say I will never go back to mop and bucket. STEAM MOPPING for me !I cant express enough how much I prefer this method. I use it in the areas I have tile! The temperature gets so high it kills bacteria without having to use chemicals. This particular one I like alot although you do have to stop to refill it a few times if you have a larger area. After mopping you just throw the pads to wash. Please note  I use distilled water on ALL my appliances.

My H20 5 in 1 mop!

Another prouduct I recommend is a DRY Swiffer sweeper especially if you have pets ! I'm not sure if you notice when you broom the dust is right back where you broomed. The Swiffer traps hair and dirt then I just swift it to one corner and vaccum up all the larger stuff that did not stick personally I like the X-large Swiffer and X-Large Swiffer DRY Sheets you see here below usually I have to order these online from Target or Walmart because they only carry the little one in stores. I buy back up sheets and they last me a pretty long time.   I've have a little swiffer as well but I just put that one in my kids bathroom because it's meant for a smaller area.

These are amazing Magic Erasers they are great if you are cooking and have any caked on food or grease that get stuck on your stove . Wait for stove or oven  to cool off then wet and squeeze out excess water and wipe away any cake on food with ease you'll see how amazing they are. I would not recommend using it on your wood cabinets or furniture. But amazing on the stove and oven without having to scratch of scrape off anything. Non abrasive. 

And of course my Scrub Daddy Sponges

Family and friends come over and when they want to wash something off they always look at the sponge are like what is this? 😂 Its pretty funny because people are not use to this type of sponge. But it softens with hot water so if your like trying to wash off the inside of a cup and hardens with cold if you need to was off pots or plates with some stuck on food. The amazing thing is this sponge does not build up nasty smells or food bacteria like old sponges They are awesome. When cleaning your knives use the sharp edge facing outward so you dont cut up the sponge. Trust me friends I was stuck on old fashioned cleaning sponges and rags and they

would smell this has made things so much easier.  Out with the old in with the new..You will work smarter not harder when cleaning everyday messes 🥰


Last product for today is the microfiber rags I did not take a pic but are great for cleaning things like TV's , computers screens and stuff you dont want lint on. Or just for helping with streaking.

These products are my favorites and what works for me.

DIY Teacher Apprectaion Gift Idea

Here is a great DIY teacher appreciation gift I made for my daughters Kindergarten teacher last year.

You just add the cards that your child's teacher prefers my daughter always said "my teacher loves Dunkin Donuts coffee".  So this particular one was customized to her teachers favorite color because her favorite color was blue and she liked flowers. You could customize your own colors on the pot, flowers,grass and cards.  

Lettering was made with my Cricut machine.I did include a printable with that gift that included my daughters picture and all about the teacher questions that my daughter filled out that ended up actually being kind of funny gift. Its says in one area My teacher always say? And my daughter wrote " Your brain is on vacation". So it pretty funny to see what the kiddos come up with makes a fun gift! 

My under- the sink project

Ok back to the kitchen real quick 

So I bought these little plastic drawers at Walmart and I made the labels myself with black vinyl and my Cricut label maker. It’s very convenient and stores all my Sponge Daddys (which I love) and these little dish scrubbers I buy have a dispenser you add soap to and are great for pots and pans. Last but not least, my magic erasers and microfiber cloths which are excellent to clean with by the way. The magic eraser is a charm for caked-on food just run it underwater, squeeze out excess water, and clean off your counter, oven or stovetop just wait till your stove or oven  has cooled off and watch it do its magic.  I never have to scrub or scrap the stuff that builds up on the stove this will save from buying expensive stove cleaners. This idea really helped me keep things in order under the sink. I really don’t like having anything down there besides my dishwasher soap, one roll of paper towels, and one countertop cleaner. I hate clutter so I keep it simple. I don’t like storing a bunch of cleaners under the sink. I also cut out a drawer liner and sized it to protect the wood underneath the sink. Once I label stuff in my home everyone automatically follows suit because they know now where things belong. Makes things run much smoother.
