WEEK 4 is upon us! Time to give some thought to the Master Bedroom! Here is the link to the official Holiday Grand Plan post with a great run down on how to approach cleaning that space.
https://holidaygrandplan.com/master-bedroom-week/
Here are few other thoughts/links that pertain to bedrooms or just cleaning in general:
The First Rule of Cleaning! Any room, any space! TOP DOWN!!! Look up, buttercup! Start with dusting the cobwebs out of ceiling corners, dusting high wall air vents and dealing with the ceiling light fixture or fan.
TIP: For dusting ceiling fan but not getting that gunk flying all over your bed, etc. use an old pillow case! Put it over each fan blade in turn and gently press the case to the blade while pulling it backwards and off. Repeat for each blade. This gets the worst of it and you can finish it off with your normal choice of duster. I swear by Swiffer personally. When done take the dirty pillow case outside, turn inside out and shake it like a polaroid picture!
Pillow Talk!
Decorative Pillow Placements for different sizes of beds…
How to get pillows white! Have you ever tried this? Or how do you do it?

Are you working on something other than the Master Bedroom this week? Share your plans and progress either way!
Remember! Life is going to throw curveballs! Just keep trying! Every task accomplished, however small, is something that wouldn't have been done otherwise! Chip away at your list the best you can!
Happy HGP'ing to all! And to all a good week!!!
