How to Get Your Home Ready for Christmas

Henry Skip Hire • 4 October 2022

Preparing your home for Christmas can be stressful, which is why it’s a good idea to start planning early.

 

Our homes are the hub of the Christmas period - it’s where we eat, relax and celebrate together - so it’s worth investing some time into making sure your home is clean and tidy for the winter season. Here are some tips to help you prepare your home so that you can focus on the more important part of Christmas - having fun!

 

Declutter

The first step of preparing your home for Christmas is to declutter your home. This will create more room for decorations and any visiting family or friends. In the kitchen, declutter the worktops, fridge and freezer by removing any unnecessary items and throwing away expired food. If you have children, consider going through their toys with them. They will likely receive new toys for Christmas, so they’re often more willing to part with things. If you need help with decluttering your home, at Henry Skip Hire & House Clearance, we offer a house clearance service so we can do the hard work for you!

 

 

Decorating

A splash of Christmas decorations can instantly transform any home into a winter wonderland.

 

While decorating should be an exciting part of Christmas, it can often be stressful. Here are some tips for a stress-free decorating process:

 

●     Decorate your living room with some tinsel, maybe a few Christmas-themed pillows, and of course, your Christmas tree

●     Add some Christmas-scented candles in your bathrooms for a subtle festive touch. Popular Christmas scents include cinnamon, citrus and mistletoe.

●     Play Christmas songs while you decorate to help yourself get into the Christmas spirit.


Cleaning

It’s a good idea to clean after you’ve decorated as you will most likely have leaves from your Christmas tree or bits of tinsel scattered on the floor. Hoover the sofa and living area and give your toilets a quick clean as these are the areas that your guests will probably use the most.  

 

Plan ahead

Planning ahead helps to make the whole of Christmas stress-free. If you know that an appliance in your home needs maintenance, try to take care of it before the Christmas season as you may end up paying extra. 

A gift list is also a great plan-ahead item so that you can budget your money and your time during the Christmas shopping rush.
