Keller Williams Realty Northeast Houston agents know how hard it can be to keep your home clean and show-worthy when you’ve got a house full of kids or work out of the home or are just too busy living life to worry about how spic and span your house is. We’ve come up with a few time savers that can help you out whether you’ve got a spur of the moment house showing, a friend dropping by, or only five minutes to spare.
Keller Williams Time Saving Tips:
- Laundry piling up? Consider purchasing two or three washable mesh bags per bedroom. Each family member is responsible for putting dark clothes in one bag, light clothes in another, and whites in the third. You can then throw the clothes, inside the mesh bags, into the washer / dryer clean. Voila! No more need to sort colors at wash time.
- Do you have extra lime or lemon juice, or maybe extra tomato paste? Get a couple of ice cube trays and squeeze or scoop the juice or tomato paste into cubes. Freeze, pop out, and store in a freezer bag. It’s an easy way to save leftovers and always have these ingredients on hand when you need them!
- Start a daily organization basket system. Have soccer practice on Wednesdays? Place cleats, uniform, water bottle, and a snack in the Wednesday basket. Have a trip planned for Friday? Store your travel documents, list of items you want to pack, and a carry on bag in the Friday basket. Now you’re never rushing around to find everything five minutes before you have to leave. Just grab your basket and go!
