Christmas Cleaning
Easier with Shortcuts
News -Wednesday, Dec. 120 - Friday, Dec. 22, 2017
eady or not, the holiday sea-
son is upon us again. This
means house guests, parties
and all sorts of holiday fun,
which also means a lot of
cleaning before and after
guests arrive.
But finding time to clean can be difficult
when you still have to shop, cook, wrap gifts
and write cards. A few shortcuts —— like only
cleaning the rooms guests will see -- can
really save time and energy.
Here are some other handy tips to help
you quickly get your home ready for the
holidays: I
0 YOU ONLY GET ONE chance to make
a good first impression. The front door and
entranceway of your home are the first
things guests will see. Make sure doors and
light fixtures are spotless. Remove dirt and
grime from vinyl siding around the main
Look for tough spots like wine stains or
syrup that can seep into cracks and corners,
leaving a yucky mess. And save even more
time by using a multipurpose cleaner and
degreaser, which cleans kitchen and bath-
room surfaces, as well as carpet stains, pet
stains and even wine stains on your favorite
holiday sweater.
0 OPEN THAT FRIDGE and toss any old
food. Be sure to wipe down the shelves.
Next, load up the dishwasher and don't for-
get the sponges. Sponges are a hangout for
contaminants and can easily spread germs
to other parts of the kitchen. Loading them
in the dishwasher keeps them fresh and
clean.
- REMEMBER THE powder room. This
is perhaps the only place in your home
where guests will spend time alone. Dim the
lights to help them feel welcomed and
GET THE ENTIRE FAMILY
INVOLVED - To make holi-
day planning and cleaning
easier, get the entire family
involved. Children love to
help out, especially when
they feel they are helping to
prepare for a party. Let them
set the table, pick up around
the house, do the things that
do not require tremendous
work but are time savers for
YOU-
relaxed. Offer a clean and comfortable
place to refresh by scrubbing the toilet,
shower, sink and floors, removing any signs
of mold or mildew. Make sure mirrors are
free of water spots and fingerprints.
entrance so when people arrive they feel
welcome.
And do yourself a favor and skip the
broom. The vacuum is an easier way to pick
up anything on your floor, regardless of
whether it's carpet, hardwood or tile.
0 ABOVE ALL, try to have fun while
keeping your home clean. Play some upbeat
music or have family members compete to
see who can clean the fastest. You can even
cleverly involve guests by asking them to
wear funky holiday socks to show off dur-
ing the party, simultaneously sparing your
9i®§i§and HQOYS! ,
MM“-
0 THE KITCHEN IS an inevitable guest-
magnet, so wipe down your countertops and
cupboards to make them shine. When clean-
ing the stove, make sure the burners are
turned off anduse a damp micro—fiber
cloth, which won't smear the cooking sur—
