I have a love/hate relationship with Spring Cleaning.
I love a clean home – the smell of freshly cleaned linens, open windows letting in the spring air, fluffed pillows and bare counters. However, it’s getting to that clean space that can be well…not so fun. So what could I do to make the process more fun? Well, everything with friends is more fun right? So I invited some of my Northwest blogging buds to do a Spring Cleaning Bash!
Here’s how it’s going to work: throughout March, each of us will be tackling a different room or space in the house. I’ll be sharing these posts with you in hopes you’ll be inspired to join us. And, because we are all frugal living bloggers, you can count on this series to offer up inexpensive ways to clean your house. So you won’t find any $300 trips to the container store, but you will find creative ideas to rearrange spaces, DIY and tutorials, and simple solutions to getting the job done.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, will be to work on your house one room at a time! Here is the Cleaning Bash schedule:
March 1 (Friday): Master Closet (with The Coupon Project)
March 4 (Monday): Yard & Garden (with Happy Money Saver)
March 8 (Friday): Bathroom (with Because More is More)
March 11 (Monday): Office & Paperwork (with Grays Harbor Deals)
March 15 (Friday): Pantry (with This Beautiful Frugal Life)
March 18 (Monday): Garage (with Coupon Savvy in Cowlitz County)
March 22 (Friday): Kitchen DIY Cleaning Solutions (with Sweet Deals 4 Moms)
March 25 (Monday): Kids Rooms (with Centsible in Seattle)
March 27 (Wednesday): Kids Rooms (with Thrifty NW Mom)
March 29 (Friday): Laundry & Craft Room (with Thrifty & Thriving)
Want some more inspiration? Or should I say, “pin” spiration? We’ve started a join Frugal Spring Cleaning pin board that we’ll be adding to as the month goes on. Make sure to follow us there!
So…are you in? What is the current state of your home? What do you hope to tackle in doing a Spring Clean?

I’m in. Current state of home & garage: Disaster control. I need to have that yard sale I have been planning for 3 years…!
We’re also hoping to have a yard sale this year too!
I’m in for as many as I can get to with my two month old! When he was first born I was doing great during his naps decluttering and cleaning. But now exhaustion has set in for me plus he’s more awake, active, and alert so now our house is a mess!
That is just such a tough stage! I understand the need to have a clean space – messy is stressy!
However, I hope you can give yourself a little grace too – this is a season that you won’t have forever. 
Do you have live links to each weeks challenge? Thank you.
Hi there! If you head to the page at the right hand of the blog, I’m updating them as they post. (In fact, I need to update it now!)
Thanks for the ideas! The links only take you to the blog sites, is there a way to take you to the direct link of the topic without having to do a lot of searching to find these specific topics?
Hi there! I’m a bit confused?
If you click on the page = you will see the full schedule. As each post has been written about, I’ve updated the room to include a link. For instance if you click on Yard & Garden it will direct you to Happy Money Saver’s post about that. So click on the link on the room, not on the link for the blog in parenthesis. Hope this helps!
