OK! Loves: Fabulous Spring Cleaning Helpers
April 17 2013, Published 1:06 p.m. ET
I have a love/hate relationship with cleaning. I love the end result of a fresh, organized home and the feeling of satisfaction after being so productive. I hate the actual chore of housework. In an effort to jumpstart my spring cleaning project, I surround myself with effective cleaners and products with a boutique feel to make the job feel a little more festive. Blaring JT’s The 20/20 Experience while I scrub and sweep doesn’t hurt either. When you’re stuck in a cleaning rut, give one of these handy helpers a try.

• I love Skoy Cloths, which are super-absorbent and biodegradable, for kitchen cleanups, although they can also be used in the bathroom and on a variety of other home surfaces. They’re washer/dryer friendly so after they’ve done their dirty work, it’s easy to get them clean and ready to use again.

• As a mom to two young kids, I really appreciate CleanWell’s line of disinfectants (including an all-purpose cleaner and bathroom cleaner) which kill germs botanically. I feel like I can safely clean without exposing them to the harsh chemicals found in other products on the market.
