It’s NAPO Conference week in San Diego, CA!  While I’m off at this year’s conference, enjoy this 2009 article from guest author from Candita Clayton on how to add a touch of green to your spring cleaning.

Unlike like my blog hostess Deb, cleaning is not really one of my favorite things to do. So you may be wondering why  I would write a book about green cleaning.  In my career as a professional home organizer, I have discovered time and time again that an organized and clean living space can reduce stress, and help every daily routine run smoothly.  So with spring cleaning on everyone’s mind, let’s consider greening  up your cleaning routine.

Some things you need in your green cleaning arsenal:

•  All Purpose Cleaner – I love a product from Better Life called “What-ever!” It works on every surface and really works! Find it at www.cleanhappens.com.

•  You can whip up your own all purpose cleaner by filling a spray bottle 1/2 white vinegar, ½  with water and  a few drops of nice smelling essential oil like Lemongrass and Tea Tree (found in natural food stores).
