You’re having an unexpected visitor coming by within the next hour. Your house is a mess, and you need to figure out how to make it look presentable before they arrive. Here are some tips of how to make your house look clean fast:
– Are there random objects lying on your floor and coffee tables? Take a quick sweep through all your rooms with an empty basket. Place all the unwanted items and clothing in this basket, and throw the basket out of sight (in your bedroom closet, for example,) until your guest leaves. You can put them away later.
– Complete a quick dusting of all surfaces in the living and TV rooms, dining room, or any other rooms you use regularly.
– Go into the bathroom: throw all your sprawled out appliances, lotions, bottles and any other objects under the sink. Take a dampened paper towel and clean the mirror to get rid of dust and toothpaste spots. Take out the trash, make sure you have toilet paper on the roll, and make sure the toilet is flushed. Spray some air freshener.
– Do the same in the kitchen. Put your clean dishes away and throw the dirty ones in the dishwasher. Take out the trash and put all food away in the cupboards. Take a Clorox wipe and clean off all your counters.
– Go through your house and spray some air freshener, or open a couple windows to get a nice, clean breeze blowing through.
– If you have time, grab your vacuum and do a quick run over all your visibly dirty floors. Go into your doorway and put away all shoes, umbrellas, coats, etc.
– Lastly, make sure you look presentable. Wash your face, brush your hair, and make sure you’re wearing clothes that aren’t covered in cleaning supply stains or food stains. Put on some deodorant and perfume, and you’re good to go!
