Hello friends and welcome to another installment of our weekly post, French Country Fridays! I hope you’re all doing well and not having too much cold weather!
We’re pretty cold here (at least for Southern California, haha!) and I’m continuing on my January clean and purge kick – with lots of organizing posts to come!
Do you struggle to keep your home neat and tidy? Do you feel like you’re always playing catch up, or that everyone you live with is sabotaging your desire for a clean home?
Well, I’ve often felt the same way! So today I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite cleaning tips. The ones that help me keep everything looking “good enough” so that I don’t go crazy. Over on Instagram I get a lot of questions and comments on how clean my home is. Compliments telling me how clean it looks, and also questions like, “how do you keep it so clean?”
When I was a kid, we had a fire in our fireplace quite frequently, and warm and cozy winter nights by the fire were some of my favorite memories. So when we moved here and finally had a wood-burning fireplace of our own, I couldn’t wait until it got cold enough to light a fire!
Hi friends, and welcome to French Country Fridays! This week has flown by ~ has it been like that for you?! I planned on getting so much done with organizing and cleaning, etc., but it didn’t actually happen! I’ve been working a ton, but it’s been the kind of necessary behind-the-scenes stuff that isn’t fun or interesting.
Hi and welcome to another week of French Country Fridays! Are you all settled into the new decade?! It didn’t even occur to me at first that this is not only a new year this year, but a new decade! Wow!! Hard to believe it was 20 years ago that we were all celebrating (and dreading) the new millennium, right?!
Happy New Year friends! Are you a person who makes New Year’s resolutions, or looks back over the year as a whole? I do love the idea of taking a look at the past year ~ an inventory of sorts ~ both personally and professionally. Not just to make resolutions (though I do that, too), but also to see what worked and what didn’t here at Maison de Cinq. When it comes to the blog, I have the advantage of being able to look at analytics and see what you all liked best. And to be honest, my Top Ten Posts always surprise me – at least a little!
