With so much to do and so little time to get it done this holiday season, finding the time to get everything accomplished might seem a bit overwhelming. Now remind yourself to find a schedule for some cleaning and you might have to have a meltdown. But try to resist the urge, and take a deep breath. Today we at Nadia’s House Cleaning have compiled a list of useful tips to help you tackle the chores while getting your home ready for Christmas.
 

Start Christmas Cleaning Early

Getting a head start is easy. Start by grabbing a box and go through a room of the house, tossing in miscellaneous decor that isn’t needed for the holidays to give you space for the holiday decorations. It can be made into a fun game by finding maybe 5 to 20 things per room to get the younger kids involved. The same activity can be applied with clutter. Make it a game to run around picking things up. Getting a head start is usually all it takes to get the ball rolling and motivated to get more done.
 

Break Holiday Clean Up into Parts

If you procrastinate Christmas cleaning, you’ll be frustrated and overwhelmed waiting until the last minute trying to get it done all at once. An alternative approach is to focus on one or two rooms a week or every 3 days or so depending on your time restraints. De-clutter the room; toss it, sell it, or donate it. A good rule to follow is if you haven’t used in 12 months you aren’t going to. Obviously this doesn’t apply to treasures with sentimental value. Clean the room from top to bottom, dusting, polishing, and cleaning until you have accomplished every room in the house.
 

Importance of House Keeping Maintenance

After getting rooms cleaned and polished, it might be easy to forget them while your focus is on other rooms or other projects and duties. Remember how hard you worked. Tidying up day to day will help keep the rooms in spit spot condition, especially if there are little ones in the home. With a little maintenance you can keep your home in stunning conditioning. For an added bonus, lighting a scented candle or something similar that has a Christmas fragrance can help get your home into the holiday spirit.
 

Reward Yourself After Cleaning Duties Are Complete

Now that all the cleaning and organizing is done, put out the decorations. It is time to reward yourself with your favorite aspect of Christmas. If it is decorating, baking, crafting, or shopping, do it! You have earned it.
