Spruce Up Your Home for the Holidays
Last Updated on August 8, 2020 by Paula
The holiday season is nipping at your heels and you’re not really feeling the Christmas cheer.
After all, you’re expecting a house full of guest and your home is looking rather dull.
Fortunately, it doesn’t take much to spruce up your house. 🔔 Clean up the floors, 🔔 add some candles, 🔔 bring in the outdoors and 🔔 decorate the room to prepare your home and yourself for all the seasonal cheer you can handle and more.
Herald in the Cleaning
Spring cleaning does wonders to spruce up the house and so does seasonal cleaning. Not to worry. You don’t need to scrub down the walls and scour the drapes, but you should consider steam cleaning your carpets and polishing the floors. Cleaning the carpets will breathe new life into them and polishing the floors will make your home shine with seasonal cheer. If you don’t have time, have a cleaning service do this for you.
The Aroma of the Season
Candles are a beautiful way to welcome in the season considering the various sizes, colors and designs. Add to that the pleasant aroma of cinnamon and nutmeg or frankincense and myrrh carrying the season throughout every room. However, don’t get too carried away. Overly sweet candles that are too sweet will likely leave your guests feeling nauseous rather than celebratory.<
The Beautiful Outdoors
Chances are not high you intend to spend your seasonal celebrations outside no matter where you live.
However, that doesn’t mean you can’t bring the beautiful outdoors inside.
Try draping some greenery such as mistletoe from the chandelier or over your windows. Decorating your mantel or adding to your table’s centerpiece with a few pinecones does a lot to herald in the season as well.
Spread the Cheer
You’re worried about going overboard with the Christmas decorations, but you can still spread the Christmas cheer throughout your house. A few decorations tastefully placed in every room will bring a smile to everyone’s lips. In fact, a little seasonal glitz and glitter throughout your home is the perfect way to spruce up your home.
Another Christmas season is upon you and you’re not sure you’re ready yet. To make matters worse, you have family coming in and the house is looking rather drab.
Not to worry.
Polish the floors, fill the air with the aroma of Christmas, decorate the rooms and add a touch of the outdoors. Just like that, your home will embody the spirit of Christmas.
