You just got the call, your family is dropping by, but your house is a mess! We have some tips on how to fake a clean home.
Jes Watson with www.sweetspot.ca says to fake a clean home, prioritize!
“Clean the areas your guests are going to see first, just focus on those areas and don’t bother with any other areas.”
There are a number of ways to mask the mess,”To hide the disorganize stuff behind the organized stuff, so if you have a linen closet and your towels are folded perfectly, it may be a good idea to place your ‘loose ends” around the house and place them behind it,” says Watson.
As for unsightly stains, “Use your throw pillows and throw cushions on your couch or turn your couch cushions upside down.”
To make your home smell delicious try this, “Put a pot of water on your stove and fill it with cinnamon and cloves and just let it simmer, it will fill your home with the scent of baking.”
She adds, add orange peels to your garbage can to mask the odour.
But the best tip of all, “Keep up with it, do it on a daily basis and if you can’t do that, be smart about it and know your cleaning habits.”
