Front Porch Entertaining: Tips For Cleaning Old Houses with Grove Collaborative
BEFORE:
Clean Off the Furniture Pieces: From wood to wicker, it is important to clean off your outdoor furniture for front porch entertaining. I would recommend these two items:
Meyers Fall Spray
Grove Multisurface Cleaner
Walnut Scrubber Sponges
Wipe Down the Walls:
On a historic home, especially wood home, it is important to maintain your exterior and if outdoor painting is not in your budget, you must definitely wipe the walls for your fall entertaining season. I used the following products to some spot treatments on your front porch wall:
Mrs. Meyers Multisurface Cleaner
Grove Collaborative Limited Edition Fall Towel
Clean the Windows:
It is important to take the time to clean your windows of any home, especially a historic home which may have very intricately designed windows. My home also has three front doors with stained glass and although they are not clear, be sure to add stained glass to your list of items to clean. These items were helpful for full window cleaning:
Seedling by Grove Tree-Free Paper Towels
Grove Collaborative Cleaning Concentrate Window Cleaner
Grove Collaborative Glass Spray Bottle with Silicone Sleeve
Keep the Products Organized and Easy to Access
As a busy new mom, I am constantly misplacing things and cleaning products are top of that list. When you get your Grove product, be sure to store them in a container where you will remember and that is stylish enough to leave out for easy access.
Enjoy Some Family Time Now That You Have Cleaned!
Half the reason I use Grove is that it allows me to save time. Prepping the baby, traveling to the store from my small town and shopping can literally take up precious hours of my busy life and I would much rather spend those with my family. Once you have prepared your historic home for fall entertaining, be sure to enjoy it with the ones you love!
