Giveaway! Enter to Win Full Circle Cleaning Supplies

Hey Nesties,

From now until Friday, September 28, we will be giving away sustainable cleaning supplies from Full Circle.

The Full Circle Grunge Buster, a grout and tile brush, is designed to make one of the most unpleasant household chores a whole lot easier. The outer softer bristles clean tile, while the tough narrow middle bristles do a killer job on grout, and the easy grip handle allows for tough, forceful scrubbing.

The Full Circle Walnut Scrubbers are plant-based cellulose sponges and the abrasive side is made of you guessed it walnut shells! They are absorbent, durable and effective on even the toughest jobs, BUT they won't scratch your non-stick cookware.

PLUS, we're throwing in a set of Come Clean natural cleaning solutions. You can eliminate toxic chemicals from your cleaning routine and make your own natural cleaning solutions with this eco-friendly set.

To enter this giveaway, reply to this post and tell us: What's on your fall cleaning to-do list?

(Don't worry, you don't need to reveal any personal information in your reply. Just respond to this thread. We will contact the random winner via the email address used to login to the site).

Hi,

Here's my fall cleaning list:

1. I have some of our living area decorated with a plethora of mirrors in various shapes and sizes which need cleaning from time to keep them sparkling.

2. The small knick-knacks from our travels, that need some love before the heavy drapes and darker winter days.

3. My entire kitchen before I change the kitchen towels and table linen and bring out the slowcooker to the counter top

What isn't being cleaned?!?! At the moment, I am working on the annual deep clean process in my house (fall is so much easier for me than spring)- so all the windows, blinds, baseboards, doors, vents, and trim are getting a good scrub (some even a new coat of paint). All the closet and cabinet shelves are getting wiped down and re-organized (not sure how it gets so out of whack throughout the year). The furniture is moved and vacuumed under/behind. Anything that can be sold or donated is being put aside. Notes are being made if something needs a repair or maintenance. Oh and the ceiling fans- man the dust being taken off of those is nuts! The carpets will be shampooed, and if I can find a reasonable way to clean the grout in the tile floors that will be done too. Thus far it has taken a couple of weekends, but it will be done before long. And of course the usual stuff done all the time will continue through the fall, the counter wipes, mopping, sweeping, vacuuming, dusting, bathroom scrub downs, laundry, etc.

Things that tend to get ignored during daily/weekly cleaning - in our household those are baseboards, light switch plates and windowsills!

The items that are not done in the 'regular rotation'.   Blinds, knick knacks, etc.  Lots more cleaning with all the school kid germs now.  Love trying safer products.

We just moved into our first home, so there's lots of fall cleaning to do. Baseboards and floors are done, but there's plenty to clean in the garage and basement!
