Friends are coming and your house is a mess? No worries. Follow this advice from Julie Edelman, author of The Accidental Housewife, and you’ll have a neat, party-ready place in no time.
Get out the baskets – It’s OK to hide stuff in plain sight (i.e., magazines in a basket near the sofa, remote controls in a basket near the coffee table). It’s a trick Edelman calls “reshifting,” and it’ll not only make your home look organized but also ensure that you’ll be able to find key things later.
Pretty up the clutter - Got junk everywhere? Make it a decorative element—stack books horizontally and vertically on tables and floor, put cooking utensils in a cheerful water pitcher, fan out magazines in a fun way on the coffee table.
Don’t forget about the bathroom - Pull out disinfectant wipes and quickly clean the key surfaces. For the toilet bowl, drop a couple of effervescent tablets or pour a can of soda into the bowl; let it fizz for 20 minutes, then flush.
Suck it up - Sorry, but vacuuming is a must. Just run the vacuum quickly through the house. It’ll pick up little pieces of paper and dust and make your place look more polished instantly.
Wonderful to be visiting your blog again, it have been months for me. Very well this content that i’ve been waited for so extensive. I have to have this posting to full my assignment inside college, plus it has exact same topic along with your content. Many thanks, good share.
I’m very impressed, this is a very a great website, with some good subjects for dialogue. The owner of this site has carried out a really excellent job here and I will probably be back on a normal basis for new topics.
