If you are like most people, keeping your house clean and tidy is often the last thing on your \u201cwant to do\u201d list. That is why they call them chores! While this 10-minute tidy up plan won\u2019t leave your house spotless, it will leave it looking mighty presentable, and at the end of a long day, that\u2019s all we really need, right?<\/p>\n
First, prioritize the areas of your home that will get the most\u00a0traffic from your guests. If the master bedroom and bath are off limits, focus\u00a0your energy on your kitchen and living room. If the kids\u2019 bedrooms may or\u00a0may not be seen, leave those for last.<\/p>\n
Clear off as much clutter as possible from your counter\u00a0tops, and if in doubt, put it away. All cleaning supplies should get placed under the sink. Put any food away into the pantry or\u00a0cupboards. Clean your counter tops with a cleaner that smells pleasant but doesn\u2019t detract from the scent of a welcoming candle. Make sure to\u00a0eyeball your cabinets and walls for any spills from the week before. Lastly,\u00a0take out your trash and replace with clean liners.<\/p>\n
Vacuum area rugs and put\u00a0any kids\u2019 toys or shoes away in their respective rooms. Fluff and place your\u00a0throw pillows where they belong. Open up your curtains to let in fresh\u00a0sunlight. Lastly, place any remote controls out of eyesight.<\/p>\n
Use disinfecting wipes to clean the sink and counter then put anything on the counter underneath to declutter except for hand soap and guest towels. Wipe down shower doors or close the shower curtain if that is the case. Finally, light a candle with a subtle, pleasant aroma.<\/p>\n
