Growing up, the words “sprucing up” had me absolutely heading for the hills. You couldn’t catch me within 10 miles of my childhood home on our annual “deep clean” weekend.
These days, I’m finding myself almost looking forward to the annual post-hibernation tidying ritual. I said almost, didn’t I? The change in heart is probably an ironic combination of the lack of raging pubescent hormones, the fact I have my own place to keep… and that I’ve found some really sweet supplies to clean with. Keep reading to find yourself some goodies that are sure to motivate you to deep-clean as you’ve never cleaned before.
Green Cleaners Galore
Finding and choosing cleaning supplies can feel like a chore in itself. Luckily, my fellow editors and I have done the hard work for you and highlighted a few of our favorite cleaning brands that are both non-toxic and environmentally friendly.
Green Cleaning Supplies That Actually Work
Natural Floor Cleaner by Koala Eco ($20)
This floor cleaner brings powerful, plant-based cleaning to your home without any harsh chemicals. Made with essential oils like peppermint and mandarin, this eco-friendly formula leaves your floors sparkling and your space smelling refreshingly clean. Safe for use on wood, tile, and laminate, it’s biodegradable, non-toxic, and packaged in recycled materials which makes it as kind to the planet as it is to your home. A little goes a long way, so you can feel good about every swipe of the mop.
Clean Suite Kit by Blueland ($98)
The ultimate all-in-one starter bundle for a sustainable, sparkling clean home. This eco-conscious kit includes everything you need to ditch single-use plastic and harsh chemicals: foaming hand soap, dishwasher and laundry detergent, toilet bowl cleaner, powder dish soap, and three surface-specific cleaners (multi-surface, bathroom, and glass + mirror). Each product comes with a stylish, reusable "Forever" container plus refill tablets or pouches to keep you stocked and sustainable. Blueland’s non-toxic formulas are tough on grime but gentle on the planet, making your cleaning routine cleaner in every sense.
Glass Starter Kit by Branch Basics ($67)
When you have lots of little kiddos running around, you just get in the habit of using a multipurpose cleaner for everything. However, I quickly learned that there’s a reason multiple cleaners for different purposes exist. Branch Basics has all three of the major cleaners your home needs (bathroom, multipurpose, and glass) in one non-toxic set that also comes with refillable glass spray bottles. They’re designed with minimalist simplicity, but also have a color-coded band around the bottleneck so you can be sure you’ve grabbed the right one for the job at hand!
Cleaning Accessories To Elevate The Experience
Just like a good outfit, no cleaning job would be complete without a few tried-and-true accessories. We’re geeking over these cleaning tools:
The Plunger by Staff ($32)
Newer DTC brand Staff makes the funkiest plunger in the game. (Yes, I did just use the words “funky” and “plunger” in the same sentence.) Staff’s founder, Charlie Weisman, realized while stuck in his NYC apartment during the COVID-19 lockdown that many household products lack personality. He hypothesized that a bit of fun added to the stuff we use regularly (like… toilet plungers) can go a long way in bringing us joy. Why not add a little smiley friend with a bowtie to your bathroom to help with life’s inevitable crappy moments?
Sustainable Bamboo and Natural Fiber Brush by Cultiverre ($10)
When it comes to plastic sponges, I have a weakness for the convenience and the reliability of every grocery store’s yellow-and-green classic. When I learned about the environmental impact those sponges have on marine life, I found Cultiverre. The brand makes a gorgeous and eco-friendly wooden brush that can last for up to 6 months. Calculating that out… carry the one… that costs just about as much, if not less than plastic sponges will run you.
Storage Caddy by Yamazaki Home ($38)
Having all of the great cleaning supplies in the world is all well and dandy, but what about lugging them all over your home when you’re using them? The “Storage Caddy” from Yamazaki Home makes carrying your cleaning supplies both simple and stylish. It’s sturdily built and will look tidy in any cleaning closet or on any shelf.
Organizers to Obsess Over For A Clutter-Free Home
Cleaning is obviously all about de-griming the home, but it’s equally about sorting through and organizing your stuff. The below storage items will have your home Marie Kondo-ed in no time.
The Nori Hamper by Nori ($145)
Ever since I was a young kid, I have eyed the beautiful canvas baskets at home decor stores, longing for the day I was able to fully organize my home with them. The Nori Hamper brings elevated design and function to an often-overlooked household essential. Crafted with durable materials and a sleek, modern silhouette, this hamper is as chic as it is practical. Its structured design features a divided interior for easy sorting (think lights and darks) and sturdy handles for effortless transport from bedroom to laundry room. Whether you're doing a weekly wash or simply aiming to streamline your space, the Nori Hamper is a minimalist, high-quality upgrade that makes laundry day feel just a little more luxurious.
Entryway Shoe Rack by Giratree ($239)
For those of us not fortunate enough to have a shoe closet, Giratree has designed what has to be the prettiest shoe (or any other item) rack I have ever seen. The rack is three layers and comes in three different colors, so you can be sure to pick a color that will suit your space well. At $239, it’s a bit of a splurge, but the simple elegance of the design is timeless and can be re-styled each year during your cleaning sessions.
Recycled Colour Crate by Design Within Reach ($16)
For the smaller-scale organization of items like art supplies, knick-knacks, or makeup, Design Within Reach makes beautiful crates. They’re stackable and come in fun colors that can spruce up any space, even a drab make-shift home office. At $48 for 3 crates, these crates marry affordability and durability to ensure you can enjoy keeping your stuff organized in them for years to come.
The Finishing Touch
There’s a TikTok floating around that jokes “when she lights a candle after cleaning the whole house, don’t touch anything.” There’s some truth to that if you ask me; a good cleaning job is always marked by the finishing touch of a great candle.
“Timeless Elegance" Luxury Candle by The Worthington Collection ($60) If you’re looking to change up your home’s scent post-clean, try The Worthington Collection’s huge selection of candles. They’re on the pricey side at $60 a piece, but they boast an odor-elimination that most other candles cannot. You can select a scent, like Timeless Elegance, or you can create your own collection with three or more candles. TQE editor Tiffany agrees, having placed it on her 30 gourmet gifts list!
