Holiday Cleaning Tips: Keeping Your Home Clean with Holiday Décor

Tagged with: · ·

Now that Halloween is over, are you breaking out the Thanksgiving or Christmas decorations? It’s fun to decorate for the various seasons, but the décor can add a unique element when you are deep cleaning your home. Do you have a strategy for keeping your home clean throughout the season?

Here are a few tips to help:

  1. Deep Clean Before Setting Up the Décor: Make sure you are starting with a clean canvas. Before you break out the boxes of holiday decorations, wipe down the baseboards, scrub the floors, and do any other deep cleaning tasks that are needed. Consider bringing in a professional cleaning service to help.
  2. Dust Off the Decorations: Most likely, your holiday decorations have been sitting in storage for a year. Whether you are bringing them in from the shed or pulling boxes out of the garage, take a moment to dust off what may have collected on them during storage.
  3. Maintain a Consistent Cleaning Schedule: Even though this time of year is filled with more social activities and events, don’t let your cleaning routine fall to the backburner. Staying ahead of these tasks minimizes your stress if you are hosting a party this season.
  4. Clean Up After the Party is Over: Holiday hosting is fun, but there are extra messes to clean up after the guests leave. Set aside time to clean the day after the event. You’ll want to scrub the bathrooms, clean the floors, take out the trash, and wipe down surfaces.
  5. Work Around the Decorations: Be creative in cleaning around trees, candles, wreathes, and decorations – for example, a vacuum hose is an effective way to get to the hard-to-reach places behind the tree.
