This Cult-Favorite Soap Cleans More Than Just Floors

With four children and three pets, I’m on a perpetual quest for a cleaning product that gets my floors squeaky clean. On a whim, I decided to try Murphy’s Oil soap on our tile floors since it’s one of those old-time standbys everyone seems to have at least heard of. When I saw that my mop water was dirtier than it’s ever been, I became a Murphy’s Oil Soap convert. Turns out, however, that floors aren’t all it’s good for.

Before and After: An $80 Closet Makeover That’s Organized and Stylish

This guest room closet was due for an update—it was originally dark brown—but its owner didn’t want to drop a ton of cash on it.

The new shelves add a ton of valuable storage, the accordion rack is as pretty as it is helpful, and that dotted wall is eye-catching!

And, if you have the right game, it can be a really fun night for you and your love to get competitive and cuddly all at once.
