7 Essential Tasks for Your Spring Cleaning Checklist to Refresh Every Room

Spring is in the air—and so is the urge to clear out the cobwebs, bust the dust, and breathe fresh life into your space. Whether you love a good deep clean or need a gentle nudge to get started, this checklist will help you tackle your home room-by-room. Plus, we’ll show you how a little organization magic (hello, refillable spray bottles!) can make the whole process way more joyful.


1. Refresh Your Entryway

Clear out winter clutter—boots, gloves, stray pine needles—and give your doormat a good shake (or swap it out altogether). Wipe down door handles and light switches, and consider adding a small basket for keys or reusable bags to keep things tidy all season.


2. Deep Clean Kitchen Surfaces

It’s time to declutter the fridge, wipe down cabinets, and scrub those often-forgotten spots like under appliances and inside drawers.

Pro tip: Make it easier (and prettier!) by organizing your favorite cleaning solutions into customizable refillable glass spray bottles. Refillable bottles not only keep your products labeled and leak-free, they look stunning on open shelves and help you clean like a pro. Joie Designs also allows you to add custom labels so you can match sets across all of your products; the ultimate in organazation and personal style!

3. Dust High and Low (Like, Really Low)

Start from the ceiling and work your way down. Think ceiling fans, vents, curtain rods, and baseboards. A telescoping duster is your best friend here—and don’t forget those dusty lampshades and bookshelves.


4. Brighten Up the Bathroom

Disinfect handles, scrub grout, clean the mirror, and replace any crusty toothbrush holders. Take a peek under the sink—if you’ve been hoarding half-used products, now’s the time to toss or consolidate.


5. Flip and Freshen Bedroom Bedding

Wash all linens—including duvet covers, mattress pads, and pillow protectors. Vacuum your mattress and rotate or flip it. While you're at it, declutter nightstand drawers and refresh the scent with a linen spray or diffuser.


6. Give Windows and Mirrors the VIP Treatment

Use your new spray bottle setup to mix a streak-free vinegar + water solution and get those panes glistening. Clean both inside and out if you can. Pro tip: Use a microfiber cloth for a lint-free shine.


7. Organize Your Cleaning Supplies

A spring cleaning checklist is only as good as the tools behind it. Streamline your supplies with matching labeled bottles (yes, we’re obsessed!) and group them by use—kitchen, bathroom, windows, etc. Store them in an easy-to-grab caddy or on a shelf that sparks joy.
