The weather has been so lovely where I live. All I really want to do is be outside—every spare moment that I have. And yet, my spring cleaning to-do list keeps call out my name. Can you hear it? Aby…come inside…come inside and clean.
One side of me wants to listen to me to-do list’s calls and head back inside for some spring cleaning. It’d be really nice to make things inside sparkle before summer arrives.
So what’s a girl to do? Well, I could wait until it rains and spend a rainy day spring cleaning. Or, I could look for ways to make spring cleaning more fun…so I can lure myself back inside. (Just for a little while, anyway.)
Enter the Caldrea Essential Collection. The folks at Caldrea asked me if I’d like to try some samples of this new line—and I said Sure—I’d love to. The line looked lovely, and like all Caldrea products, this collection is kind to the earth and delightful to the senses. Yet it’s still highly effective in helping you clean and care for your home. So maybe this could be the thing to help me stay inside and have some fun spring cleaning. So far, it’s looking (and smelling) promising.
Here’s what I’ve tried:
The Kitchen Set in Olive Oil
This set contains Dish Soap, a Countertop Cleaner and Hand Soap. And it smells sooooo good. Last night I used the countertop cleaner to wipe off my desk, and this morning a very light aroma welcomed me when I walked into my office. What a great way to start the day. But the good smells continue via the…
Water Lily Votive Candle Set
These little votives come in a small tin container, and they’re so cute. I have one burning in my office right now, and I love the aroma. It’s very subtle and fresh…perfect for feeling as if you’re outside when you’re really inside working. I love that it’s in a little tin, too, because it’d be great to take along for hotel trips to add a bit of ambiance and freshness to the room.
I also can’t wait to try some of the other candles from their home collection, like this one…
Such a pretty jar…I think it would make a great Mother’s Day gift for my Mom. Don’t you think?
I’m also looking forward to trying the all-purpose cleaner in one of the other scents—like Herbs of Provence or Citron Ginger. Those sound yummy, don’t they?
This line was scheduled to launch at Target nationwide the first week of April. And, truly, it smells so good. So, if I can’t be outside enjoying the fresh spring air, at least I can be inside getting things done, and enjoying these delightful smelling products.
Have you seen this product line or tried it yet? If so, what do you think? What are your ideas for making it more fun to get your spring cleaning done? I’d love to hear!
Caldrea at Target!?!?! Awesome! I LOVe Sea Salt Neroli candles and the countertop cleaner! In fact, I just ordered from their website this past week. Good to know Target will be carrying Caldrea. Thanks for sharing!
Oh, that looks really beautiful. I wish, we had this line in germany. I’d try it directly.
Have a nice weekend!
Best wishes,

Great tips and products in making cleaning more enjoyable! Well, my wife and I are both working so that we could provide more for our family. Even though we’re so busy, we still do make it a point to give some quality time for our kids. However, we don’t have much time in making our homes clean and well-maintained, so we always called up someone who will do the cleaning for us.
That’s really a cool idea of yours.
I loved reading your post and added to the favorites. The views you tried to put up was clearly understandable.
I like some of the comments too even though I would choose we all keep it on topic to be able to add significance to the subject.
Thanks for the cool tips up.
Scented candles really adds up fresh ambiance in a room. I like ’em in my bathroom, bedroom, and office. My spring cleaning list is almost done. Yey! I’m just waiting for the laundry service and I’ll be out and enjoy some coffee with my best friend in our fave New York deli.
I never thought of using scented candles to freshen up the ambiance of a room while cleaning. Well, it’s true that a room that smells better can ignite the will of a person while cleaning rooms, offices, and even bathrooms.
