Your master bedroom should be a sanctuary, and not a cluttered mess. Here is my spring cleaning & decluttering plan to make it happen.Day 32: Master Bedroom

Considering we have an almost 80 year old Cape Cod style house, all of the rooms are small.  Our master bedroom is small.  Like real small … only 11’x11!  Once upon a time, we had an apartment with a walk-in closet that was 8’x10′, so our room feels super tiny.  My desire is for our bedroom to feel like a sanctuary, a place where we can unwind and relax, and forget about the rest of the world for a little while.

Its not there yet.

We currently have a hamper and storage bin on the one wall in our room, and that gives us 2 flat surfaces, and you know what that means – CLUTTER!

I am planning on taking some time over the next few days to clear out that side of our bedroom and turn it back into a sanctuary again.

Here is my Spring Cleaning & Decluttering plan so that I stay accountable, and maybe it can help you out too.  This is the order I need to do these tasks to make cleaning go as smoothly as possible.

  • Strip the bed, wash all linens, and put away the winter comforter
  • Wash the pillows
  • Clean the mattress – vacuum and then spray with the Norwex Mattress Cleaner Spray
  • Wash all dirty laundry in the hampers
  • Take down the curtains and run them through the laundry.  Rehang when the room is clean and the curtains are slightly damp (it prevents wrinkles from the dryer)
  • Put away clean laundry
  • Decide if the items that have cluttered up the room are trash, recycle, donate, sell, or keep. 
  • Put all donations aside
  • Trash & Recycle go to the curb on Sunday evening
  • All items in the “Keep” pile find a new home and get put away
  • Dust surfaces from the ceiling and work my way down to the floor
  • Vacuum up the dust and dirt on the floor
  • Clean the windows
  • Mop the hardwood floors
  • Remake the bed with all clean pillows and linens

Are you going to spring clean your master bedroom, or just do a quick decluttering session?  Which does it actually need?
