Your appearance
In fact, very much depends on how the mistress of the house looks. Guests may not notice the dust on the shelves, but they will always note a faded robe and a careless hairdo. Therefore, start to restore home order from yourself. It is not necessary to be discharged to the arrival of guests, as if you are going to a ball. It is enough to choose something clean and comfortable. For example, jeans and a blouse. Do not make evening make-up and complex hair, just make up your eyes and lips, collect hair so that they do not interfere with you.
Available space
If your house has 2 or more rooms, you do not need to feverishly try to clean up everyone. Just close the door to the bedroom or the office - where unauthorized persons do not need to go in, but only clean up the rooms where you are going to invite guests.
Angles
The first secret of a good housewife is that the home order needs to be created from the corners. It is enough to remove boxes, some things that often lie in the corners, as the room will immediately look much better. In addition, it visually increases the space.
Small debris
As a rule, before the unexpected arrival of guests, we do not have time to accurately arrange trifles on shelves, take out garbage, hide unsightly things. For this, take two bags for garbage or a bag. In one, put everything that was going to be thrown away, in another - those things that you still need, but which you have too long to put in places. The main thing is not to mix the packages - one of them can be hidden in the closet, the other in the pantry and deal with them later.
Floor
Strange as it may seem, many people forget that cleanliness and perfect order on shelves and tables are not so obvious as sex. Therefore before arrival of visitors it is necessary to sweep, vacuum the floor and quickly to wipe a damp rag. This will create a sense of order, no matter what the state of the contents of your cabinets and shelving.
Sanitary engineering
Another rule is clean plumbing. Perhaps your guests will need to wash their hands or go to the toilet. Therefore, while you are dealing with garbage or sweeping the floor, fill the toilet, sinks and bathroom with a cleaner. After 10 - 15 minutes you will easily wash away the pollution, and your plumbing will please the eye with cleanliness, and you will retain the reputation of a good housewife.
Smells
Another thing that can disrupt the order in the house is unpleasant odors. Some of them can be drowned out by air freshener, but do not be zealous, otherwise sharp smells will mix up. It is enough to open the windows and ventilate the rooms, and then gently sprinkle in each room with your perfume. This will help quickly create a cosiness, and your guests will not suffocate from the sharp smell of a freshener.
Finishing touch
You are almost ready for the arrival of guests. It remains to go over the eyes of the house. Dirty dishes, for example, can be hidden for a while in a closet or loaded into a dishwasher, and dirty laundry - in a washing machine. Working household appliances will let your guests know that you care about the home, and you will get rid of things that have long been about to wash or wash. Do not forget to shake out the ashtrays and boil the kettle.
The order in the house is better to maintain daily than to direct it quickly from time to time - it is known to all. But we do not always have time to wash the floor or throw away garbage in time, not each of us is able to maintain perfect purity around the clock, combining it with work. Simple ways to create a semblance of order will save you to the unexpected arrival of guests, but will not help out if you use this method of cleaning all the time.
