Quick Cleaning Solutions for Every Room

What to tackle if you have 15 minutes, 30 minutes, an hour, or half a day to clean.

Easy Steps for Cleaning the Kitchen

Kitchen duty isn’t easy. The main culprit: grease. Before you start combating it, move small appliances off the counters to ensure that bacteria (kitchen enemy No. 2) won’t flourish underneath the toaster oven or the coffeemaker.

If You Have 15 Minutes

  • Clean countertops and the sink. Spray disinfectant in the sink and let it soak. “Otherwise the product won’t have time to kill all the bacteria and viruses you’re trying to remove.Meanwhile, spritz the counters with disinfectant. Then scrub the sink with a sponge, rinse well, and dry. Return to the counters and wipe dry with a fresh cotton or microfiber cloth.
  • Sweep or dry-mop the floor. Make a pass using an electrostatic mop (like those from Swiffer) or cloth. This will pick up dirt and hair and make wet-mopping more efficient.
  • Clean the refrigerator handle. It takes only seconds to wipe down this bacteria-friendly spot with disinfectant.

If You Have 30 Minutes, Add the Following

  • Wet-mop the floor. A few spritzes of an all-purpose cleaner and a damp microfiber mop will do the trick. “You can finish the kitchen floor in minutes―with no dirty water bucket.
  • Wipe down appliances. Clean the surfaces of the gadgets.

If You Have an Hour, Add the Following

  • Wash the cabinet fronts. Wipe from top to bottom with a soft sponge and a solution of warm water and dish soap. If the cabinets are wood, use a wood cleanser.

If You Have Half a Day, Add the Following

  • Deep-clean appliances. To freshen the refrigerator’s interior, clean it with a solution of three tablespoons baking soda and four cups warm water. No self-cleaning oven? Wipe down the inside with an all-purpose cleanser. Use a plastic scraper (or an old credit card) to get bits of food off the racks and drip pan.
REMEMBER THIS IS A FAST WAY OUT.BUT CLEAN IS WHAT YOU WILL GET
Christine’s crystal clean also provides deep detailed cleaning every visit.we give your home full service each visit unless we are just doing a tidy maintenance which we also provide at a low cost fee.
Hope these tips help you enjoy your live and spend less on chores.

My Personal

Mission Statement

I will have fun.

My number one goal in life is to have fun. Not the half smile,  I mean laugh out loud, damn near pee your pants, can’t stop laughing fun. I love to smile and touch others lives with my smile.

I will make you laugh.

I always strive to be the life of the party. If I am ever given the chance to make you laugh, I will take it. Besides, laughing alone isn’t nearly as fun as it is when you’re laughing with someone else.

I will continue to learn.

Knowledge is beginning of health, the beginning of wealth, power, control and satisfaction. I will keep reading and writing, working on my penmanship, taking classes, attending seminars, and strive to become better at everything I do. To quote Springsteen: “More than being famous, more than being rich, even happy… I want to be great.” Me too Bruce… me too.

I will remain positive.

Attitude isn’t my one thing it is my only thing. A positive attitude has helped save me from following in the footsteps of a lot of people I grew up with, who is now and has always been, living a challenging life. It is not an accident. I work hard to walk with my head up, my shoulders back, and take a positive point of view.

I will work hard.

I will,work harder than I get paid for as an investment in my own life.You have to work hard to accomplish your happiness.never give up as I will never stop everyday is a blessing.

I will give back.

I will give back to my community, my listeners, my clients, family and my friends. touching others in my life with all my skills.

I will be Motivating.

Nothing gets me more motivated than meeting someone who is passionate and motivated about one thing or another. Therefore, by sharing my passion I hope to motivate you.

I will say yes.

When I can, I will accept an invitation to go out, attend a function, and grab a movie, whatever. I have spent too much of the last 4 years declining such requests staying home and watching other people live their lives on TV. Not anymore. Since I’m  making this statement I hope to enjoy my life and have some good times into the new 2011.

This is some of my new years goals…The holiday’s are gone. So some set goal or even resolutions hoping to maintain them through out the new year. On the business side my goal is to make others happy and comfortable in  there home,by taking criticism with ease. Listen and learn what others say which is what we do as housekeepers.

A very important gift to give your self and others this new year. A new beginning. Perhaps the most important gift you can give yourself, your time.  That’s were we come in at.We take care of those chores for you or that friend or family..Giving you the time you need to take care of your self or other things… schedule  a cleaning or even pre-purchase a cleaning as a gift.

Getting organized

All you need to get organized are some nice storage bins and racks or a few decorative storage boxes up on the shelves! Right? If you have a Container Store near you, or something comparable, then you’ve probably had a similar thought.

Well, if only it were that simple.  I don’t know how many times I’ve bought a bunch of nice storage bins, carefully put a bunch of things in each one and threw them up in the closet or on a storage rack…only to pull them all apart a month later desperately looking for that missing glue gun or electric stapler.  Now I know I put that in one of these boxes!!!

The key to using storage bins and racks to get organized is to have a logical system of classifying like items as well as using the right type of storage item.  Most important  Use this time to purge some of the unnecessary or unwanted items in your home.  You don’t have to keep everything, and sometimes it feels great to lighten the load a bit.

~ Plan your system before you buy by thinking clearly about what you’re out to accomplish    

~ Make sure you have enough room to house the box or bin you buy

~ consider using clear plastic bins so you can see the contents without having to open everything up.

~ If you don’t have the shelves for storage boxes, consider stackable storage bins or containers

So many of my clients now need some good advice on how to purge and organize your important items in your home. Hope this is very handy. Also don’t forget Christine’s Crystal Clean is only a phone call or click away to helping you get started on any projects that require a team approach. We have time if you don’t….

  • Donate anything you don’t want or can’t use.
  • If you find something you haven’t seen in years or forgot you had…chances are you don’t need it.
  • Remember that a clean home makes for a healthy one.  You can literally breathe easier once your house is clean.

    Mothers Day 2011

    Mother’s Day in the United States is annually held on the second Sunday of May. It celebrates motherhood and it is a time appreciate mothers and mother figures. Many people give gifts, cards, flowers, candy, a meal in a restaurant or other treats to their mother and mother figures, including grandmothers, great-grandmothers, stepmother’s, and foster mothers.

    On Mothers Day Thank your Mother
    There is simply no way we can ever really thank mother for all she has done for us. She is the one who will be awake all night when we are sick. Praying to God to make us well and be ever ready to bear the pain that we may be experiencing. She is the one to wake up early in the morning to make the nicest tiffin and endure all our tantrums. Mothers are the ones who would forever complain that we are not eating enough or not eating right. They would cook all sorts of things so that we be strong and healthy. Mothers in fact, worry more for our examinations than we must. They would take pains to complete our school projects leaving all other works behind while we play around with friends or just while away time watching movies.

    On Mothers Day Apologise to your Mother
    Mothers are the one on whom we put all the blame for our failures. We would not hesitate once to point her single faux pas though she would not miss even a slightest opportunity to praise us. Isn’t it tough to imagine how she must have borne our temper tantrums when we were teenagers. And how hard we must have made her life by behaving so rude and difficult. And yet she was so astonishingly cool. It it easy for the kids to be so demanding from parents, specially mothers as we take her affection and care so much for granted. Most often to the extent of selfishness. Mothers Day is the right time to apologise for all the troubles that we gave to our moms, without even realising at most times how troublesome we must have been to her

    So on May 8thth 2011 take the time to remember your mother, no matter what situation you family is in.

    TAKE THE TIME TO PICK UP A SINGLE CARNATION. sometimes one means more than a dozen

    Fragrant and beautiful, Carnation flowers have become symbolic of mother’s love and also Mothers Day. Tradition of flowers on Mother’s day was initiated by Miss Anna Jarvis. Miss Jarvis was also instrumental in the official celebration of Mother’s Day and the declaration of national holiday in US to mark the day.

    Another sweet gift is a clean home…Let us help you by giving her the day off of the cleaning…Christine’s Crystal Clean is having a Mothers Day Promotion…$15 a room till June 1st..so get your scheduled cleaning started today

    Moms would love to have that kitchen clean or how about those busy bathrooms or even that carpet vacuumed really good
