Cleaning a home has never been easier or fun especially when you have guests coming over or when a festival is approaching. Imagine throwing a party to celebrate your anniversary or birthday, or having your entire family over for dinner on Christmas. The entire process of planning and throwing a party can turn into a nightmare with an unclean or untidy home. The very thought of having to clean your home itself gives you chills.
Tips And Ideas For Cleaning:
Prioritize:
When you have decided to clean you up an entire home, the best way to go about it is to have one good look at your home and decide where and how to start it. During cleaning, it is always better to go from top to bottom so that you don’t have to redo anything. But, it is always better to start with carpet cleaning before you go to the top so that you don’t ruin your carpets, clothes and other things that are lying on the floor.
Sing Along:
It is easier to clean your room while humming to your favorite song. That way, you are more calm and composed, and you do it better. Pick a fast song or use your workout playlist so that you do it faster. This way, your workout is also done.
Time It:
You would never want to spend your entire weekend on cleaning the house and doing nothing else. So, the faster, the better. Along with a fast song, set a timer for every activity like, washing a window in 5 minutes. That way, you are more alert, and you also finish the entire thing up before you could think of.
Pick It Up:
The moment you enter a room start by picking up all the trash or leftovers or anything that needs to go into the trash can or dishwasher or laundry so that you’ll have lesser things to focus on when you start with the dusting and cleaning.
Reorganize:
Once you are done with all the clutter in the room, start putting things in order by picking all those pens or toys you misplaced after you were done a reading or playing. Also, assign places for new things and make sure you have enough space left and remind yourself to put things back in its right place after using them.
Self-reward:
All that it takes to finish a herculean task like cleaning is some motivation. So, reward yourself with some snack or a cup of a coffee or watch even an episode of your favorite.
Helping Hand:
Ask one of your friends to come over to help you clean so that you have enough time to catch up and also get an extra hand in cleaning. You can also come up with small challenges like who will dust the sofas faster or who will wipe the countertops better.
It is always better to clean your house on a daily basis, so as not to pile it up and feel burdened with it. Assign yourself small tasks every day and make sure you finish it. That way, you don’t have to deal with it all at once.
