Company is on the Way!

I have some helpful tips on how to get your home organized for their arrival!

1)  Hall Closets –  Empty the closet out, and get rid of anything that is not being used anymore, items not belonging in the closet, look for new homes.  Clear out a space for your guests coats, and provide plenty of empty hangers.  Add a washable mat for the floor to catch umbrella’s and wet shoes.  Get a basket or bin to put scarves and mittens in.

2)  Guest Bathroom –  Do a deep cleaning of the bathroom, clear all clutter off of counters.  Make sure there is plenty of space for guests to put their belongings.  Put out plenty of towels, soap, etc. for guests to use.   Provide any personal items that a guest may forget, for example, toothpaste, dental floss, extra toothbrush, shampoo, etc.  Add an air freshener or bowl of Christmas Potpourri.

3)  Guest Bedroom-  Completely declutter the space, and make sure there is plenty of room for suitcases and such.  Clean out the closet.  Provide clean linens, extra blankets and pillows.  Make it as comfortable as possible.

4)  Enjoy the season and your family and friends!

5)  Start thinking about the New Year!  Organization is a GREAT NEW YEARS RESOLUTION!!!  More on that later!
