Life gets busy, and keeping your kitchen clean can feel like an overwhelming and never ending task. But what if we told you its possible to get your kitchen sparkling clean in under 30 minutes? Whether you're hosting last-minute guests or just want to enjoy a tidy space, a streamlined cleaning routine can make all the difference. With Nellie's time-saving tools like the Dish Stick, All-Purpose Cleaner, Swedish Dishcloths, and Dish Cubes, maintaining a clean and fresh kitchen has never been easier. Let's dive into our step-by-step guide to make your kitchen shine in no time!
Step 1: Clear the Counters (5 Minutes)
Start by decluttering your countertops. Put away items like mail, small appliances, or stray dishes that don't belong on the counters. A clear workspace instantly makes your kitchen look neater and more organized.
Next, grab a Swedish Dishcloth and some All-Purpose Cleaner to wipe down your countertops. This duo works wonders on sticky spills, crumbs, and greasy spots, leaving your counters spotless.
Step 2: Load the Dishwasher (5 Minutes)
Don't let a sink full of dirty dishes slow you down! Quickly load your dishwasher with anything that's dishwasher-safe and a Nellie's Dish Cube. For items that need a bit of extra attention, like greasy baking pans or delicate glassware, use Nellie's Dish Stick. The Dish Stick's refillable design and powerful scrubbing capabilities make it perfect for tackling stuck-on food without scratching your dishes.
Pro Tip: For pans or stubborn messes, soak them in the sink with warm water and a Dish Cube while you move on to the next step.
Step 3: Tidy Up the Stovetop (5 Minutes)
Your stovetop often bears the brunt of daily cooking spills and splatters. Don't skip this step - nothing ruins a clean kitchen vibe like a greasy stove!
Use a Dish Stick to scrub and tackle stubborn grease spots. The non-toxic formula of our Dish Butter stick cuts through grease like a pro without leaving harsh residues. Finish up with a damp Swedish Dishcloth and All-Purpose Cleaner to leave your stovetop looking like new.
Step 4: Sweep or Spot Mop the Floors (8 Minutes)
A quick sweep or spot mop can make a world of difference. If you have a few sticky spots from spills, use Nellie's WOW Mop for a fast, effective clean.
Focus on high-traffic areas. You don't need to mop the entire kitchen - just target the spots that need it most to save time.
Step 5: Finishing Touches (7 Minutes)
Wrap up your quick cleaning session with a few small details:
- Wipe Down Handles and Light Switches: These are high-touch areas that accumulate grime. Use a damp Swedish Dishcloth and a bit of All-Purpose Cleaner to sanitize handles, knobs, and switches.
- Empty the Trash: If your trash can is starting to smell, give it a quick rinse or spray with Nellie's Ninety-Nine before replacing the bag.
- Add a Fresh Scent: Light a candle or start a simmer pot with cinnamon sticks and orange slices to create a welcoming aroma in your kitchen.

With the right tools and a simple plan, keeping your kitchen sparkling clean doesn't have to take hours. Nellie's products help you clean smarter, not harder, so you can spend more time enjoying your space and less time scrubbing.
