Well, you have come to the right place! Just read this article and you will be out of trouble! (Just remember to wash your hands before starting and again when finished) Turn on some music and get motivated. Don't think that it will be boring. Have some fun! Reward yourself every time you finish a section! But don't take longer than a five minute break! :)

Steps

The Bed

  1. Remove everything off the bed. Take all pillows, cushions, stuffed animals, sheets, duvet and throws and take all the covers off of them, remove pillow cases, cushion cases, duvet sheets etc. Throw the sheets, cushion cases, etc which you just took off from the bed into a washing basket. You can put them into a laundry bag if you prefer, throwing them into a washing basket won't make the room any cleaner. This step is really just about removing any items from your bed and stripping off all bed linen and if you have bad acne going on change pillows .everynight this is very helpful.
  2. Find clean and fresh bedding. Put it on the duvet and pillows/cushions and put those aside.
