Cheerful Kitchens

Mould and mildew tend to creep into almost every home by the end of a long cold winter. The kitchen is no exception and generally it's the heart of the family. See below some spring cleaning suggestions

• Wash all the walls over with some soapy scented water
• Scrub all the kitchen cupboards with a no abrasive product
• Give the floors and any rugs a good vacuum and wash
• Time to clean out the dreaded pantry, discard all of the out dated food
• Re organise the pantry, I love organised cupboards
• Give the dishwasher a clean out
• Wipe out the interiors of the kitchen cupboards
• Clean the windows and window coverings
• Now for the most hated task of all YES the oven. You don't want your buyers seeing the last 3 months worth of baked dinners now do you
• De clutter the benches and give them a good scrub
• If you are feeling really energetic scrub all of your appliances and most used items
• Once you have achieved all of the above, treat yourself  to a bottle of champagne and a bunch of flowers to brighten up the kitchen
• Oh and don't forget to wash the light fittings

Great lighting!

How great do these lights look above the kitchen bench. Lighting placement is crucial in the kitchen area. These pendant lights also make a real statement.
