October Is National Kitchen & Bath Month: Some Simple Tips From The Green House Cleaning Experts

October is National Kitchen and Bath Month. Whoever decided that, and why, is unknown. But, there’s no better time than now to make a few improvements to two of the most practical rooms in the house. When getting those rooms ready for fall and/or for Halloween, you might need to do anything from a complete remodeling, to replacing an appliance or two, or simply cleaning the rooms up for guests. The month is almost halfway over, so let’s get started on the “celebration.”

There things things you can do as a homeowner to make the kitchen and/or bathroom a better room to be in, without it costing an arm and a leg and without it consuming tons of time. Here are some simple, easy suggestions to improving the bathroom and/or kitchen:

1. Seasonal Decorations – Did we mention that autumn and Halloween were around the corner? Switch out the towels and mats for something fall-themed, or add a small pumpkin for looks. Take this one step further by purchasing some fall-themed hand soaps to go with the sinks.
2. Declutter – Are there appliances or supplies that are just in the way and not serving any purpose? Find a place for them. If you really have no need for them, then perhaps donate them or give them to a friend. You might also need to purchase a storage bin to hold any of these things if there’s no good place for them, and you don’t want to give them up.
3. Improve the Lighting – Sometimes, a little light can make all the difference. Open up the curtains to let natural light in. Change any light bulbs that seem dim, or clean the lights themselves. If space permits, add a light fixture or two.
4. Plants – A plant can do wonders for a room. This one may scare people, since some folks are afraid of killing a plant, but ivy is a good hardy plant that’s perfect for those who don’t want a green thumb. If you’re still unsure, speak with someone at the greenhouse or the home improvement store for ideas.
