Tackle the bathroom like a boss

The bathrooms should be your first deep clean during the holidays. After a good deep clean, it’s pretty much maintenance after that, and someone is inevitably going to need to use the restroom during the holidays.

  • Rain-X can be used on your shower doors and windows to help prevent those icky water stains and the buildup of soap.
  • Use a Clorox Bleach Pen to clean those deep crevices around the shower tiles and the corners of the bathtub. It’s extremely easy to use, and it’ll look like you spent a lot of time on it.
  • Baking soda and vinegar can easily get rid of gunk and mildew. Just mix equal parts of both and pour onto the area, let it sit for a few minutes, and as it bubbles up it’ll get rid of all that nasty stuff. This is perfect for those bathtubs or sink drains and the solution can be used anywhere else you see a buildup of gunk.

Those are just a few cleaning tips for some of the worst areas in the bathroom. Doing a good cleaning with these easy tricks will allow you to be able to maintain and wipe down the bathroom until the holidays are over.

Fun in the kitchen

The kitchen will be the most used room during the holidays as it will be filled with both food and people.

  • Let Magic Erasers do the dirty work for you, especially when it comes to cleaning the inside of the oven.
  • Clean the refrigerator with white vinegar, hot water, and lemon essential oil. Mix everything in a spray bottle and let it sit for a minute or two, then wipe it up with a damp cloth. The mixture will help loosen any stuck-on food you have and will help leave a fresh lemony clean smell when you’re finished.

When it comes to cleaning for the holidays, you’ll definitely want to prioritize what really needs to be deep cleaned before the big event.

Focus on the areas that will need a deep cleaning. These are the rooms that will be seen or rooms that will be used most like the kitchen, bathroom, dining room, and living room. Deep clean those rooms once a week to two before the holidays so that you can just do a quick clean until the holiday guests arrive.
