How to succeed in spring cleaning?
Spring is often associated with renewal, freshness and cleanliness. Now is the perfect time to undertake a major cleaning of our living space, to get rid of the traces of winter and prepare our home for the warmer months to come. Release endorphins by tackling spring cleaning, and take full advantage of a clean and healthy interior to welcome the sunny days with a smile! The Andrée Jardin team is proud to support you in this responsible approach.
Opt for responsible cleaning products
Traditional cleaning products often contain harsh chemicals that can be harmful to our health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to these chemicals can lead to respiratory problems, skin allergies and other serious health problems. Additionally, these substances can contaminate air and water, contributing to the pollution of our environment .
At Andrée Jardin, we highlight Marseille black soap from the famous Fer à Cheval soap factory. This versatile product can be used for a variety of household tasks, from cleaning surfaces to body care to washing laundry. Opting for products like Marseille black soap means choosing a natural and economical approach to cleaning .
The 3 essential steps for successful spring cleaning!
Starting cleaning from the top down is not just a cleaning method, but rather a strategic approach to ensure optimal results. In fact, this method makes it possible to maximize the effectiveness of cleaning by avoiding re-dirtying already treated surfaces.
Sort your closet
Before you start cleaning, take the time to sort your belongings and organize your closets . This process not only frees up space, but also simplifies your daily life by getting rid of unnecessary items. Opt for methodical organization by placing winter clothes at the back of your closets, while gradually leaving room for summer clothes. Consider giving a second life to clothes you no longer wear by selling them second-hand, allowing other people to benefit from them while getting good deals. To protect your precious textiles from pests, use our mothproof cedar houses , which naturally preserve your textiles while repelling unwanted ones. Their use effectively prevents attacks from moths and other insects, thus ensuring the longevity of your seasonal clothing. For a fragrant and soothing touch, soak them with our Atlas cedar essential oil , known for its antiseptic and calming properties.
Once the stuff is sorted, our cabinet brush is the perfect tool for removing dust and cobwebs that may have built up around your cabinets, providing a clean and tidy environment.
Clean its surfaces
Once your closets are organized, move on to shelves and other overhead surfaces. Andrée Jardin dusters are renowned for their efficiency and practicality . Indeed, thanks to their feathers, they catch dust without difficulty, allowing quick and efficient cleaning of your shelves without having to move everything. The feathers slip into the smallest nooks and crannies, dropping dust to the ground , making it easier to collect later. Available with a socket, it is possible to add an Andrée Jardin handle to reach high shelves.
For corners and walls, our wolf head is the ideal tool. Its specific shape allows you to effectively clean hard-to-reach places, thus ensuring complete cleaning of your interior. Made with high quality materials, our wolf head is designed to last over time, providing a sustainable and responsible cleaning solution for your home.
Finish on the ground
Once the surfaces are cleaned, focus on the floors . Sweep away any debris and dust particles that have accumulated. Next, adapt your cleaning method depending on the floor type. For tiled floors , black soap from the famous Marseille soap factory: Fer à Cheval is, once again, the ideal product. Dilute it in lukewarm water and use a cloth or mop to clean the floor thoroughly. Black soap is known for its cleaning and degreasing properties, leaving your tiles clean and shiny without damaging them.
For other types of floors, such as wood or laminate, use a broom with natural horsehair fibers . Natural fibers are soft and will not scratch wooden floors, preserving their original finish and appearance. Sweep all areas, paying particular attention to nooks and crannies where dirt can hide . This process effectively cleans wooden floors without the need for harsh chemicals. By caring for your floors in a gentle and natural way, you guarantee their beauty and durability for years to come.
Say goodbye to synthetic cloths and disposable wipes and say hello to a tried feather duster with real with ostrich feather that proved itself in your grandparents' homes.
Andrée Jardin's small feather duster is designed to dust every nook and cranny. Equipped with an aluminium socket, it fits perfectly with the 130 cm or 65 cm beech wood handle.
