Real Life, Real Products that WORK

After our toddler had a creative moment on the walls, white couch, floors and switches we did what anyone would do. We panicked. I had a glass of wine, or two. We slept on it. And then I reminded myself, “We planned for this.”

Thankfully, I keep our cabinets stocked with my personal ride-or-die cleaning products that have truly become lifesavers. Mrs. Meyers Cleaning Spray is a favorite of mine—it’s like the goldilocks of cleaners: not too harsh, not too gentle, but just right for our surfaces. We chose eggshell paint instead of flat finishes to give our walls a bit more protection, and semi-gloss for the paneling to add a touch of shine and durability. This combo makes Mrs. Meyers Cleaning Spray our go-to for everything from a speedy wipe-down to a thorough scrub. It’s our secret to maintaining that just-cleaned look and feel, without having to sacrifice style for substance.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser

When it comes to tackling stubborn stains or more intensive cleanups, the Magic Eraser is our secret weapon—think of it as the superhero of our cleaning squad. It swoops in to handle crayon marks and grime with effortless grace, and the best part? It doesn’t rely on harsh chemicals, so it’s as gentle on our home as it is tough on messes. Pair it with trusty microfiber cloths, and we’re always ready to tackle whatever spills or smudges life throws our way.

Clorox Disinfecting Wipes are a game-changer for quick and effective cleaning. Imagine them as your trusty sidekick in the battle against germs and grime. Whether it’s a rogue spill in the kitchen or a swift swipe across bathroom surfaces, these wipes are always ready for action. Their convenience means we can effortlessly keep high-touch areas like doorknobs and light switches sparkling clean and germ-free—because who has time for fuss when there are more important things to do, like sipping coffee and admiring your perfectly polished countertops?

Method All-Purpose Cleaner

For a more eco-conscious cleaning approach, we rely on Method All-Purpose Cleaner. Think of it as your green thumb for housework. This plant-based powerhouse is not only tough on dirt but also has a soft spot for Mother Earth.

It’s like giving your space a spa day—without the guilt of chemical overload!
