5 Simple Steps to Prepare Your Home For The Holidays (Cleaning Challenge Day 4)

4 Days To Prepare Your Home For The Holidays – Day 4

I don’t know about you, but I am thrilled to have my home (at least basically) in order for the Thanksgiving holiday.

And it only took 5 simple steps.

Ready for them?

Here we go:

1 – Clean your oven.

2 – Clean your dishwasher.

3 – Clean your sink and disposal

4 – Clean your fridge.

5 – DE CLUTTER EVERY OUNCE OF YOUR KITCHEN SPACE.

Now ~ I know you may be thinking that preparing your home for the holidays takes a lot more than that.

And you’re right.

But by completely tackling your kitchen (minus the pantry ~ that’s on my to-do list this weekend mine you), 

You tackle the largest portion of your home that so quickly gets taken over.

My one bonus tip?

REALLY REALLY REALLY do a serious kitchen cabinet audit before friends and family come to town.

Think about what you really need on your kitchen counters, and get rid of pack away everything else.

So that when people come to your home (and bring in extra food, a gift, a coat, extra groceries ~ whatever) you keep the clutter to a minimum.
