Unexpected House Guest (and win cleaning product)

Started by Quirky Momma , author of quirkymomma.com 5/3/2010 12:49:14 PM
Pop in!  Challenge me!  I told you last week my house was a wreck, well after a busy weekend (with non-cleaning family activities) the house is still in dire need of some attention.  Here is my bathroom (I told you I have a clutter problem!!! I wasn't joking!):


And here is my shower door - gross! 


Kids are down for naps (well, almost) and I will try and get them cleaned by the end of the day.  Here are the other rooms in my house:
  • kids bathroom
  • Kids bedroom
  • playroom
  • living room
  • Dining area
  • Kitchen
  • laundry room
Come visit!  Pick a room and I'll get you photos of before and afters!

P.S. I got a sponsor to help me clean!  Scrubbing Bubbles gave me a bottle of their cleaning supplies (which are supposed to keep the surfaces cleaner for up to 4 days - that's awesome).  I am going to try them.  AND... if someone else wants to join me in our unexpected guest game, you can win a bottle of cleaning supplies (with a few other extras) care of Scrubbing Bubbles.  I'll pick whoever wows me with before/after shots.  Please don't let me be the only one embarassing myself (and honestly, if the end result means I have a clean home, bring on the shame, I deserve it).

I think my biggest problem is dust!  I hate dusting with a passion.  But I am a clean freak by nature.  That is great that you have a sponsor to help show before and afters...can't wait to see!

This is great!!  I should really do the same just to be held accountable :)  Today though I'm cooking our 'family dinner' so I'll clean tomorrow :)

Brandie, feel free to offer your readers the scrubbing bubbles in your link up (provided they leave a comment on this thread - so I know where to find it.  I am on the floors now (even took apart one of the drains that was gurgling - we have clean pipes too!).

After pics are on their way :)

Quirky,
I added the link to here on my post and said that if they want to play along they can post here or link up from here and have the chance to win scrubbing bubbles from YOU.  I also left a link to your blog.  It is scheduled to post around 6 p.m. my time which is in about 3 hours.  Hope that is okay!!  Thanks this is turning out to be more fun than I thought!!

Here are the "after photos".  I really wish I had taken a picture of the bottom of my shower!  I hadn't realized it but over the years it had gotten dingy, I just thought that it was textured to be an off color, it was like it had a shadow on it.  The Scrubbing Bubbles spray made it brilliant!  I had been using homemade cleaners, but I just might be sold on this stuff!  Unfortunately, I hadn't realized how gross my shower floor was or I would have included it in the before/afters!  Thanks Scrubbing Bubbles

Here is the bathroom... and the laundry is in the wash!!!  Floors were mopped, even got the drains cleaned.  Gotta love the flash, it shows me I missed part of the mirror! 


And here is my shower door!  You can actually see through it!  Beautiful!


Just a reminder, I was not compensated for this, just given a test product to try... you can get one too :)  I am loosing faith in my homemade cleaners...

Brilliant job! I'm totally inspired - love the pics!

I get the losing faith in homemade cleaners - I'm on the fence. My hubby loves them, I'm secretly buying 7th Generation bathroom cleaner. LOL haven't figured out how to conquer shower scum on my own. :)

I'd say go for the kitchen or dining room next...



Great job!!!!  Perhaps I'll tackle one of my rooms tomorrow :)
