If you’re in need of a guide for pre-guest holiday cleaning, look no further. Here is our list of cleaning tasks to accomplish in each room before you deck the halls.
Your guests will be spending time with you and others in the living room, so you’ll want to spend the most time in here. Make sure you’re thorough and critical if you really want to impress your guests this year.
No holiday is complete without a delicious feast freshly prepared in the kitchen. Make sure yours is clean and ready for a flurry of activity before your guests arrive so that everything goes as smoothly as possible.
If you’ll be hosting some overnight or extended-stay guests, you should make sure your bedrooms are ready for them. It can be fun and welcoming for guests if you put extra care and thought into where they’ll be staying for the night, so make sure you make things cozy.
Whether you have long-term guests or are just hosting for the evening, you’ll want to make sure your bathrooms are ready for use. Like your guest bedrooms, you’ll want to be extra thoughtful of these spaces so that your guests will have everything they need during their visit.
If dinner is served at your house this year, you’ll need to make sure your dining room is ready for guests. You’ll also need to make sure you have enough seating for everyone, so if this means you’ll be using multiple tables, make sure everything is just right before everyone arrives.
Make sure your guests are greeted with a clean and inviting entryway so that they’ll feel right at home and ready for holiday festivities. Check that you’ll have space for everyone’s coats and shoes when they arrive.
Allow for easy arrival and departure for your guests by tidying up, prepping for winter weather, and providing plenty of light so they can see where they’re going at night. We’re hoping for a white Christmas, so make sure you’re ready for snow.
You can clean your fruits and vegetables by filling your sink with cold water and mixing in ¼ a cup of hydrogen peroxide and allowing your produce to soak for a few minutes.
Once you’ve crossed everything off the list and checked it twice, you’re officially ready for your holiday guests.
