Using the wrong materials to clean valuable items in your home can quickly destroy them.
Gisela Lowenstein, president and founder of
The Glow System, shared with us the following tips and advice on how to clean and organize a home.
The Glow System is
an instructional DVD that teaches viewers how to clean and organize quickly and efficiently.
Here are a few of
Lowenstein's favorite housekeeping tips:
First, organize a "cleaning caddy" or container that is stocked with supplies.
Invest in specialized cloths. Terry cloths are ideal for cleaning wet areas, while felt cloths are recommended for very delicate areas, such as a piano, to prevent scratches. Microfiber cloths work well for wet or dry areas and are perfect for capturing dust on delicate and smooth surfaces.
