After Holidays Cleaning List

This post is sponsored by Dispy Dabber, but all opinions are my own.

If you are anything like me putting Christmas decor away is a whole day project. I feel like I need to clean out, dejunk, and scrub down anything that had Christmas decorations. Maybe it’s because I have a clean slate once all the Christmas decorations are down. I wanted to share with you my favorite things to do to get my home cleaned after the holidays. And really, this would work anytime you want to refresh.

First off I made this bright printable checklist that you could store in with your Christmas decor. That way you will have it from year to year.

I love to enlist the help of my kids in getting everything cleaned up and put away. It’s nice for them to have responsibility. It also helps them take ownership in our Christmas decorations and the rest of the house when they get a chance to help put things away and place things where you want them to go.

I especially love their help with the tree.

On the printable above I have explanations on what to do and why you’ll want to do it. When it comes to the touch-up paint, you might be saying, “Are you kidding me?” I’m really not and let me tell you why.

We found this amazing product, Dipsy Dabber–It’s a gamer changer.

You pour your paint in the can.

Add a little sample color on the label.

Write all the paint information on the label.

Now all you need to do is clean and spackle the wall and once it’s dry, use your Dipsy Dabber to touch up that paint.

It’s so easy my 9 year-old wanted to do it. She was pretty dang good at it.

Wanna see it all in action. Check out this video from Heather Cluff.
