The holiday season is almost here! And as it draws near, it's time to get your home ready to make the most of the celebration.
How do you make your living space both cozy and comfortable and see to it that it gives off a festive vibe? As each one of us brings unique traditions, styles, and routines to our places, Property Report shares some universal key tips to make the season warm and welcoming for all.
DECLUTTER AND CLEAN
Start with a good tidying-up session. Clear out the clutter in your home to make room for decorations, gifts, and holiday activities. Focus on common areas and guest spaces to create a fresh and inviting feel throughout your home. A deep clean of high-traffic areas like the kitchen and bathrooms is also needed to help set a pleasant stage for your holiday gatherings.
