The History Behind Spring Cleaning

Spring Cleaning Traditions: Why Do We Clean every Spring?

I don’t know about you, but I found myself very curious about why Spring Cleaning is such a hot topic.  We don’t tend to take our rugs outside and beat them anymore but at my house we do wash winter gear and store it away, wash blankets before storing them for summer and generally try to put winter behind us.

Occasionally I might clean out the pantry in the spring and thanks to Samantha Conner I have some great ideas on how to do this well.
