Holiday Cleaning Guide

Season’s Cleaning!

Creating an inviting home during the holidays is not just about the festive decorations and cozy ambiance; it's also about keeping your space healthy, clean, and tidy. Here's a helpful 10-step guide on holiday clean-up for a welcoming home:

1. Start with Decluttering

Before the holiday season gets into full swing, take the time to declutter. Go room by room, removing items that you no longer need or use. Consider donating items in good condition to charity. A decluttered space is easier to clean and more pleasant for your guests. You might also find items you’d forgotten about!

2. Deep Clean in Advance

Give your home a deep clean a week or so before any major holiday events. Pay special attention to guest rooms, bathrooms, and the kitchen. Clean windows, dust light fixtures, and wash any throw blankets or pillows.

3. Create a Cleaning Caddy

Having all your cleaning supplies in one portable caddy can make it much easier to do quick clean-ups, especially when you're short on time. Fill it with multi-surface cleaners, microfiber cloths, a duster, and anything else you regularly use.

4. Post-Party Quick Clean

After hosting a holiday event, do a quick clean-up to avoid overwhelming tasks later on. Load the dishwasher, wipe down surfaces, and put away any food. A quick vacuum or sweep can make a big difference too.

5. Daily Touch-Ups

During the holiday season, maintain your home with daily touch-ups. Wipe down bathroom surfaces, keep the kitchen tidy, and fluff cushions in your living areas.

6. Involve the Family

Turn clean-up into a family activity. Assign tasks to each family member; even young children can help with simple chores like picking up toys or dusting.

7. Keep Decorations Tidy

As you put up and take down holiday decorations, keep them organized. Store them in clearly labeled boxes, and dispose of any decorations that are worn out or no longer loved.

8. Refresh Linens and Textiles

Ensure that any linens, towels, and textiles that your guests will use are fresh and clean. Having a set of guest linens ready can make last-minute visits stress-free.

9. Stock Up on Essentials

Make sure you have plenty of cleaning supplies, toilet paper, hand soap, and other essentials. Running out of these can add unnecessary stress during the holidays.

10. End-of-Season Deep Clean

Once the holidays are over, take the time for another deep cleaning session. Wash or dry clean holiday linens, clean out the refrigerator, and tidy up any areas that became cluttered during the festivities.
