3 Steps-3 Ingredients to Sparkling Windows [Inside and Outside]

Spring cleaning started a little late this year at my house.
We have lived in my home now for 5 years and though I had cleaned the windows before, I had not done it in at least 2 years. (ick)

I have been getting some great cleaning tips from a friend who owns a cleaning business, One of the best, quick tips she taught me is for cleaning windows. I tried it out and it is spectacular. Great thing is -it uses things you have on hand.

Dawn dish soap
Wet Sponge 
Squeegee

 1. Suds up every inch of the glass with a LOT of Dawn dish soap on a wet sponge. Cover the entire area. It's important to make sure you get a very wet, very sudsy glass, as if the soap starts to dry before the next step, it will leave soap scum and streaks.















2. Squeegee that window clean!
Swipe and wipe the squeegee or squeegee in one continuous swipe. (easier on smaller windows).The trick with squeegeeing is to get the whole thing in one continuous motion. It takes a little practice but is easy once you get the hang of it.

3. Using an old t-shirt, an cloth diaper or your favorite rag for cleaning windows, dry off any remaining wetness or streaks.















That's it! Sparkling clean windows super fast and super cheap!

I especially love doing this on the inside and outside of my sliding glass patio door. Nothing makes your house look cleaner and brighter than clean windows, and the Dawn adds a nice, fresh scent that isn't as strong as most window cleaners!




and, I promise, after this, you won't deny that you do windows again! It's lots of fun!
