Tidying on a regular basis works wonders for keeping a room clean. If you follow the cardinal rule of giving everything a place and keeping it there, you should be okay. But, if you're not like that (which I am not), it will take some concerted effort to tidy. Here's what to do...

Spring is pretty much the best time to do heavy duty cleaning, especially if you live somewhere with winter (like me). During the winter, everything gets gross (somehow), and spring is the time to clean it right up and welcome in the warmer weather. But, the issue is that spring cleaning scares people; it's a lot of work and people don't quite know how to get started. I'm well aware of this fear and have created a HUGE post on our blog to help you. It's so valuable, I bet other people will start copying it and using it on their blogs.

Anywho, we created a few fun things to help you get cracking: printable checklists for each room, Songza playlists for motivation which our Facebook fans helped us out with, and links to all our content that can potentially help you with a task. Short of me coming over and doing the work for you, this is all you'll need to achieve greatness in your spring cleaning endeavours.

Now, you're probably thinking, 'ok enough about the post, how do I win the Dyson?' and that's a fair question. However, I'd just like to point out that we're all winners; really. I mean, if you attempt this challenge and don't win the vacuum, you actually get a clean room (or house) out of the deal and that's a great price for trying.

Thanks to our friends at The Home Depot, we have a Dyson DC29 Multi Floor to give away! It's a $500 vacuum!!!!!

So to win, here's what you need to do:
1 - visit http://www.cleanmyspace.com/springcle... and check out the blog.
2 - pick a room you want to clean
3 - take a 'before' photo (bonus points for you being in it)
4 - clean the room following the checklist
5 - take an 'after photo' (again, bonus points for us seeing you)
6 - upload both to our Facebook page to be entered to win!

That's all! You have TWO WEEKS, so no excuses! So get to it, and have fun!

Melissa's 3 Room Cleaning Rules

I have 3 rules about cleaning: trust me, these rules will save you time so listen up.

Rule 1 -- Get in the right headspace

Um yeah, you need to be in the right headspace. I don't know what you need to do to get there (maybe watch one of our videos ), but if I am not in the mood for cleaning, I literally waste time doing everything else but clean. Just commit like 20-30 minutes to give your room the attention it needs. Pick your music ahead of time, get a drink, go to the bathroom, and then get cleaning.

Rule 2: Use the right tools and products, and have them all with you

Don't waste your time using inadequate tools and products, get the good stuff that isn't going to waste your time because of quality issues. Select items that you need; nothing more and nothing less, just enough to be efficient. My recommended product and tool list is below. Then, gather the items up and take them to the room, don't leave one item out. If you have it all with you, you won't need to leave your room and that will keep you focused.

Rule 3: Have a Method

Have a plan, and that's why I am going to share my list with you, so that you know what to do and the order to do it in. Also, work clockwise and stay on course, that way you won't need to remember what you have and have not cleaned. You save so much time by not backtracking.

Tools and Products

Microfiber cloths for dusting, cleaning and polishing.
Glass cleaning cloth, for mirrors and windows (if you feel like cleaning your windows)
Vacuum (mop if you have hardwood floors)
All purpose cleaner
Glass cleaner
Disinfectant (points of contact) -- if you wish
Garbage bag, bag for recyclables, replacement garbage bag
Mop pole, hair elastic
Fresh linens, or at least strip your bed, was the sheets and have fresh ones ready to go (in the video, I don't change my linens because I did so 3 days prior to shooting).
Now, you might have items and/or finishes in your room that I don't have in mine, so if you have something that requires special attention, get the right product for it. Otherwise, this list will suffice.


Method

The method we're going to use for this I will refer to as '3 Waves'. Essentially, you're going to do 3 circles (waves sounds sexier and less kindergarden-y) around your room to cover off all the areas. The three waves are: tidying, cleaning, and floors. That way, you tidy and deal with garbage and laundry first, clean second, and vacuum (or mop) last. You can't go wrong. You'll always work clockwise and I pick the door as my '12 O'Clock' so that I always have a consistent start and finish point.
