OCD Calendar - cleaning leather furniture

Yesterday I noticed something. I noticed that my leather couch was looking a little drab and I also noticed crusty, dried, up drips of various liquids (mainly milk and juice) that were left by, none other than, Conner.

Every 6 months or so I "deep clean" my leather furniture. When we purchased our couch, we were given a leather furniture cleaning kit. But it was kinda a pain in the rear to use. There were TWO different products that had to be applied to my furniture and it required buffing with a dry cloth in between each application. This is difficult to do when you have a mischievous toddler breathing down your neck.

The other week, as I was shopping in my local Walmart, my eye caught a glimpse of this lovely product.

The prospect of cutting my "leather furniture cleaning time" in half, was good enough of an excuse to purchase this product.

This was so much easier to use! I simply pulled a cleaning wipe out, cleaned the surface then wiped down with a dry cloth.

The section on the left is the "before" and the section on the right is the "after".

Not too shabby!

And now my heart sings with joy every time I sit my bum on my leather furniture!

Last week I had hoped to clean and organize my bedroom closet, but it just didn't happen. My excuses are: back to school preparations, Conner, Conner, and Conner.

This week I hope to accomplish that goal. Wish me luck!

I also plan on cleaning the basement family room walls. It's been quite a while since they have had a good wipe down, and I can even write my name in the accumulated dust. It's just not a good thing!
