This will not only reduce the foul smell but also freshen up your mood- yes essential oils have effects on our mood and mind. 

Use a Basket to De-clutter

The best way to declutter your kitchen is to collect all the hotchpotch and keep it in the basket. Buy a cheap laundry like a basket from a local shop to consolidate all the mess that spreads in the kitchen. Once collected, you may continue to do your work and arrange all the things in the respective shelves when you are free. 

Use the Dishwasher’s rack to Dry the Washed Dishes

Forget the dish rack that blocks too much counter space, instead keep the hand-washed dishes in the empty racks of your dishwasher. In this way, you will quickly wash the dishes without plugging much space.

Add Vinegar to Your Dishwasher

Add a bowl of vinegar in your dishwasher and run the dishwasher, the vinegar will deal with that hard water to make your dishes look perfectly clean and spotless.

Use Baking Soda to combat the Coffee Stains

Use Lemon to Clean Microwave

Take about 1/2 cup of water and squeeze the juice of half lemon into it. Keep half of the lemon into the bowl and keep the same in the microwave followed by nuking the microwave on high power for 3 minutes to boil the liquid. Do not open the door for 5 minutes and let the steam inside to slacken the stuck food residue. Then a simple wipe will clean away all the muck.
