Clean the surfaces that matter most—then dim the lights for that classy restaurant vibe.
No matter if you’ve been preparing for a holiday party for weeks or just found out friends are stopping by in a few hours, here are some tips to make your home look instantly pulled together. Start by cleaning the spots most likely to be noticed—hello, kitchen counter and bathroom—then add some metallic accents and fresh flowers or greenery to make your home feel festive.
Your place will be party-ready in no time.
De-Clutter the Kitchen
Step one: Clear the kitchen counters. Even if you don’t have time to scrub the stovetop or tackle the dishes in the sink, decluttering the countertop will give the impression that your kitchen is neat and organized. Remove everything from the counter to start, then wipe it down with multi-purpose cleaning spray to remove dirt and crumbs.
