Have you ever had an unexpected visitor or wanted to have an impromptu party, but was your house a mess?
Easy, just follow some easy tips to get your home cleaned up fast!
1 - Attack the "TPM" objects: Television, Private, Tables ...
Remove as much dust and visible dirt from these surfaces as this will make a huge difference. After you have cleaned up the dust, spread a fragrant disinfectant on the countertops and toilets.
2 - Waist play.
Start by clearing the first place that the guests will see (the entrance) and go towards the next place they would visit - living room / or any place where they will end up going. Clean these surfaces / clean the mess of those places first; So you will spend your limited time cleaning on that matters.
3 - Leave the bathroom proof of visits.
Discharge the toilet, close the drawers, cabinets, and the shower curtain. Hang a bathrobe over wet hanging towels.
Use a paper towel or a cloth to swipe through the mirrors, the faucet, the sink, and finally the toilet seat - in that order.
4 - End the mess.
Stack things like remotes, books, and other objects in order of size to give them a look of organization. Put all the visible mess inside a laundry basket and hide this basket in a room with the door closed.
5 - Change the cloths and towels.
Change dirty dishcloths and hand towels for clean ones.
Sprinkle with softener so they look good.
6 - Get rid of the hairs of your pet.
Turn the couch and chair cushions and that's it: no pet hair! (Provided that the other side is not also covered with hairs). Throw a blanket or clean blanket over the back of any piece of furniture with cushions that can not be turned.
7 - "Wash" the dishes.
Quickly, if your dishwasher is full or you do not have one, stack and store the dirty dishes in the oven. It will appear cleaner than if you put everything in the sink. (Just be careful not to forget and turn on the oven!)
8 - Good smells.
Spray a room odorizer or upholstery spray in the room in which your guests will spend most of the time.
9 - Enlighten the environment.
If it is day, open the windows so that the space seems clearer and cleaner. If it is night, turn off the overhead lights and use lampshades. Shorter lighting makes your home look more cozy and also hides any imperfections (kind of dirt).
10 - Fix the windows.
Turn the blinds to hide the dust.
Sprinkle vinegar in a newspaper and wipe the windows so they are clean in the blink of an eye.
Explain beautiful and bright things.
Put something shiny or reflective in the room, such as a vase or a mirror, to hold people's attention and keep your eyes away from other less clean areas.
12 - Last minute trick: remove the vacuum cleaner from the cabinet.
When the guests come in, just leave the vacuum cleaner in the middle of the room and say, "You got me in the middle of the cleaning!" That way, any mess is excusable!
