Women’s Month is a time for celebrating, connecting, and honouring the powerful women in our lives. Whether it’s a last-minute tea with friends, a surprise visit from family, or an impromptu gathering, unexpected guests are all part of the fun. That’s where these quick cleaning tips for hosting come in, helping you prep your home fast, without the stress.
Because when the doorbell rings early, and you’ve only got 15 minutes to make things presentable, these smart hacks will have your back.
1. Focus on the first impressions
Start with the entrance, living room, and guest bathroom, these are the places visitors will notice most. A quick sweep or vacuum of the floors and a scented candle can instantly make a space feel fresh and welcoming. Remember: you don’t have to clean everything, just the spaces your guests will see.
2. Clear clutter, fast.
Grab a basket or reusable bag and do a fast “scoop and stash” of out-of-place items: shoes, toys, cables, or rogue laundry. Pop it in a bedroom or cupboard to deal with later. This hack is a lifesaver when you’re racing the clock but want your space to feel calm and tidy.
3. Refresh surfaces in a flash
Wipe down visible surfaces like coffee tables, countertops, and bathroom sinks. Using a microfibre cloth and multi-surface spray adds an instant sparkle guests will notice. This small effort makes a big difference.
4. Make the bathroom guest-ready
A spotless bathroom shows you’ve thought about your guests’ comfort. Follow this quick checklist:
- Replace hand towels and empty the bin.
- Do a quick wipe of the toilet and basin.
- Ensure there’s soap and toilet paper.
5. Set the mood with simple touches
Dim harsh lights, play soft background music, and open a window for fresh air. This is the stage to use scented candles or diffusers. These small sensory tweaks help create a warm, welcoming environment, even if you didn’t deep clean beforehand.
