I think Buzzfeed Spring Cleaning Challenge is just messing with us today, but we can play along. This one could really be an all event if you attacked all the drawers in the house.

One minute: Take out three things
Don’t spend too much time on it, just find three things that are trash or old or don’t belong there. Get rid of them or put them where they actually belong.

Five minutes: Clean the outside & top of your dresser ( + take out three things)
Supplies you’ll need: Microfiber cloth, vinegar solution
Whether they’re actual drawer pulls or just the bottom of the drawer with a lip to open it, those places where hands go can get really grimy. Spend a second wiping down the front and top of the dresser and shine up the handles.

Ten minutes: Clean the actual drawer ( + take out three things + clean the outside and top of your dresser)
Supplies you’ll need: Microfiber cloth, vinegar solution
Take everything out and wipe it down. Use a laundry basket or a tray to make things easier to replace. Then spray the water/vinegar mix on a microfiber cloth and wipe out all the sides and bottom of the drawer. As you’re putting things back, try to leave everything a little neater than you found it.

OK, be honest – how long did you last today? I didn’t do the dresser drawers because wiping those down with a water/vinegar mix was overkill. Instead I tackled the kitchen drawers and cabinets which amounted to a little over an hour worth of work.
