    How To Make Your Home Presentable On A Time Constraint

    How To Make Your Home Presentable On A Time Constraint

    Published 10/17/2024 | Posted by Arda Clark

    Whether it’s for guests, a house viewing or anything else, when you’re short on time and need to get your home looking presentable quickly, it’s all about prioritizing and simplifying. This is even easier if there are other people to assist you, and you are able to delegate tasks.

    Prioritize high-traffic areas. This includes the living room, kitchen, and entryway, but most importantly, the bathroom. It’s often the most frequently used room by guests and the most off-putting when dirty, so it’s a top priority. Wipe down the sink, faucet and countertops and scrub the toilet. Replace the hand towel with a fresh one and empty the trash if needed. If you’re really short on time, use disinfectant wipes for speed. Unless you’re showing your home, there are probably rooms your guests won’t enter, such as bedrooms or home offices. If you don’t have time to clean them, just close the doors.

    The next thing to do is remove clutter. A cluttered floor and tables makes any room feel messy. Even if you have an organization scheme in place, your guests don’t need to see all your personal items. Grab a basket and collect any things out in the open so they can be temporarily stored out of the way. This can be any number of unrelated things, such as toys, shoes, or paperwork, as long as they’re safely out of the way. You can deal with sorting it later.

    There’s another way to quickly make your home feel more inviting that doesn’t involve cleaning at all. Light a candle or spray a fresh scent. It only takes a minute and creates a more welcoming atmosphere.
