Fall homekeeping

By mudlark • September 7th, 2009

Happy Labor day!

This a great time to do a quick home makeover for fall. Mine is pretty simple.

Replace the summer flowers in the door bucket with fall colors.
A new table cloth on the dining room table – mine is a rust color, and I use a few gourds, candles, and pinecones for a centerpiece.
Different throw pillows on the couches and guest bed. My couches are neutral colors, so I use different colored throw pillows around the year to change the look now and then.
This is a great time to clean (or change) your welcome mat. A dirty welcome mat tracks in more dirt, making your family and guests susceptible to allergies.
Dust the ceiling fans and mini-blinds every time you change your air filter.

Keep up with those pesky contributors to allergens and you’ll have a healthier family this fall and winter!

Great tips! I use to own a cleaning business before I became involved in the drug rehab field. I love the fact that you only use safe products, it’s a major plus. More companies should follow your lead.

These are lovely ideas. I like the table centerpiece idea, and the way you can colour code everything!
