Anything that is disrupting your sleep isn\u2019t good news for us and so, we have decided to help you with your Diwali house cleaning and with our cleaning hacks for deep cleaning house<br \/>\nLet\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Top 7 Tips for House Cleaning<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>1. The Shelves Are a Good Place to Start<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try getting rid of anything and everything that hinders the look of your bedroom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why are shelves a good place to start? Usually, shelves become convenient places to keep things that are not important at all. Over a period of time, the racks are filled with these trivial things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The clutter not only makes the room look untidy but also makes it unmanageable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try the cantaloupe rule. Anything that is smaller than the size of a cantaloupe does not belong to the shelves, and so you can remove it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have gotten rid of the excesses, you can begin dusting the shelves.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Proceed to The Wardrobe War Zone<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might want to go the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Marie_Kondo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marie Kondo <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">way, because who better to give you the best <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tips for house cleaning<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> than her!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, bring out all your clothes. Next, categorize them. Some categories could be \u2013 shirts, t-shirts, pants, pantsuits, skirts, traditional wear, you get the drift!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can try the \u201cspark joy\u201d test too. Whichever piece of clothing does not bring you happiness, goes into a pile that you can later discard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can donate the clothes that you don\u2019t wear anymore. However, you may want to make sure they are in good condition before presenting it to the donation camp.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the categories are decided and the clothes to be discarded have revealed themselves, all you have to do is decide which piece of clothing to wear. And tada! You have a perfectly organized wardrobe!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have organized the wardrobe, you might want to add some camphor balls in every shelf to keep the mites away.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Bedroom Cleaning<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wondering <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how to clean the bedroom <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">where to begin? The first step is \u2013 Strip the bed of all its accessories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are a proud owner of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wakefit.co\/bed\/sheesham-wood-beds\"><b>Wakefit\u2019s Sheesham Wood Bed<\/b><\/a><b>,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> then all you need to do to clean the bed is take a mild detergent and dilute it with some water. Dip a clean piece of cloth into this solution, and then rub the bed very gently. Finally, use a dry cloth to wipe the bed making sure there is no water or moisture left on the wood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next comes the mattress. Our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wakefit.co\/mattress\/orthopaedic-memory-foam-mattress\"><b>Orthopedic Memory Foam Mattress<\/b><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">comes with two covers. While one is attached to the mattress, the other can be removed and washed as and when. This helps maintain the hygiene of not just the mattress, but the entire bed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, if you have done the smart thing of getting our Mattress Protector too, then you will have an easier time cleaning your room this Diwali. It is waterproof and uses TPU for 100% resistance to water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bed cleaning<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, all you will have to do is to dump the fitted bed sheets and the mattress protector into the machine and give them a spin!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Let the Light In<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before lighting diyas and candles, let some natural light into your bedroom when cleaning for Diwali.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To clean the window space, first remove the curtains and dump them for a wash. Now using a wet cloth, clean the window panes and the window sill.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, use a dry cloth on the glass to make sure no marks are left on it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: revert; font-size: revert;\">5.
