Here you'll find cleaning tips for both indoors and outdoors, and a quick guide to KaliFlower Organics linseed oil soaps: what you can use them for and which variant is best for you.
1) Start with a "quick round" indoors (it makes an immediate impact)
Want to get a lot done in a short time? Start with the surfaces that are most noticeable:
-
Hallway: shake out rugs and wipe down surfaces that collect grit and dust.
-
Kitchen: wipe down kitchen cabinet doors, countertops, and handles.
-
Bathroom: sink and tiles make a big difference when clean.
Once these surfaces are taken care of, your home often feels fresher immediately, even if you haven't done everything.
2) Do outdoor chores when it suits you (balconies count too)
When the weather allows: do a quick once-over of what needs to be brought out for the season.
-
Remove leaves, grit, and winter debris.
-
Wipe or scrub tables, chairs, and balcony railings.
-
Finish with decking/balcony floor or entrance area.
3) Work in the right order and scrub smart
An easy way to avoid double work:
-
Top to bottom (on top of cabinets, railings, countertops, tables first, floors last).
-
Outdoor wood floors/decking: preferably scrub with the grain of the wood for a more even result.
-
Indoor wood floors: Mix the soap in cold water and scrub gently. Avoid hot water, as it can increase the risk of the floor yellowing.
4) Linseed oil soap: a natural choice for spring cleaning
Our linseed oil soaps are handmade and produced in the traditional way by saponifying raw linseed oil. The linseed oil is grown and pressed in Österlen. The soaps are environmentally friendly and biodegradable, and without added perfume.
This makes them a really good product to have at home when you want to spruce things up for spring, both indoors and out.
5) What can I use linseed oil soap for?
Linseed oil soap is versatile and can be used on many durable surfaces in the home:
-
Kitchen: kitchen cabinet doors, tiles, sink, and faucet
-
Bathroom: sink, tiles, and ceramic floor tiles
-
Outdoor/balcony: outdoor furniture, railings, pots, and tools
-
Wood surfaces: wood floors, decking, and wooden tables (depending on surface and need)
6) Which linseed oil soap should I choose: solid or liquid?
Both variants can be used for the same types of cleaning, but suit slightly different routines.
Linseed oil soap – Solid and concentrated
Undiluted and semi-solid. Dissolve a dollop in warm water or use directly on a brush/sponge. Because it is concentrated, it lasts a long time, and the concentrated form saves on transport weight, space, and plastic.
Choose this if you want a little to go a long way and like "a dollop in the bucket".
Linseed oil soap – Liquid
Easy to dispense and can be used both diluted and undiluted. Pour a dash into water or take a dab directly on a brush/sponge or mix a dollop of soap into a spray bottle for convenient dispensing.
Choose this if you want an extra convenient option for quick cleaning and ongoing maintenance.
