Rise and Shine: Cleaning Up the Mess After a Big Bash!

See this content in the original post

After a big bash there is always the dreaded home cleaning reality up that follows. It may be difficult to motivate yourself, especially when dealing with a hangover, but it is important to take the time and effort to tidy up your home after a party. You don’t want guests to have to deal with piles of rubbish and sticky surfaces days later. Keeping on top of the tidying will ensure your home remains inviting and comfortable for you and your visitors in the future!

Preparing for Clean Up

The first step in preparing for home cleaning hell after a big bash is to make sure you take some pain killers and a good amount of water. Even if you don’t feel like it, having something to ease the headache can help get your head in the right place for cleaning. You should also remember that it’s best not to try and do everything at once; set yourself realistic goals and break tasks down into smaller chunks that are easier to manage.

Once you have made your plan of attack, start by gathering all the rubbish around your home into a rubbish bag so it can be easily thrown away. Make sure you have all necessary supplies such as rubbish bags, brooms, mops etc., close by so they are easy to access when needed. This will save time later on when dealing with messier jobs!

Next move onto any spills or sticky surfaces that may need attention; these might include spilled drinks on carpets or furniture which must be taken care of as soon as you can stomach it before the stain sets in permanently. If possible, use paper towels soaked in warm water first then follow this up with an appropriate cleaner depending on what type of material needs cleaning.

Clean any surfaces using anti-bacterial wipes – especially kitchen areas where food has been prepared – and vacuum over surfaces/floors afterwards to remove any remaining dirt or dust particles from the air. Finally throw out any unwanted items such as party decorations or broken glassware which could pose potential hazards if left lying around too long!

Cleaning Surfaces

The kitchen is usually the most heavily used area during a party and should be given extra attention when it comes to home cleaning post the party. Start by wiping down all surfaces with anti-bacterial wipes, paying particular attention to areas where food has been prepared such as benches and sinks. This will help protect against any germs that may have been transferred from hands or utensils during preparation. For hard floors, sweep up any dirt and debris before mopping with warm soapy water; this will help remove stubborn stains which may have set in over the course of your event. Finally use a vacuum cleaner to clean carpets, rugs or other fabric items that may have become stained due to spilled drinks or dropped foodstuffs – don’t forget those pesky crumbs!

It is important to remember that cleaning after a big bash can be tiring work, especially if you are suffering from self-inflicted pain. Take regular short breaks throughout the process in order to keep yourself motivated and energized for tackling remaining tasks. Once everything has been cleaned make sure you take some time out for yourself; rest up with some foetal position couch Netflix therapy until you feel ready again!

If You Love Pain then Do the Laundry

When you are cleaning your home and you’re a fan of physical labour and possible nausea then the laundry is sure to be right up your alley! Separating different colours, fabrics and prints can be surprisingly therapeutic and enjoyable.

Depending on how much laundry there is this could take anywhere from a few minutes up to several hours but don’t worry – every second spent here will pay off later when everything emerges looking like brand new again!

Now that everything is freshly washed it’s time for stage two: drying! Taking things outside to a washing line gives clothes plenty of fresh air which helps them remain odour free while helping your pain threshold.

Finally, once everything appears dry enough bring back inside and fold neatly away ready for storage or wear depending on what you intend for each piece. Et voila - beautiful laundry results without having had to leave your home (or break a sweat!). Now that wasn't so bad after all, was it?

Finishing Touches

Once the home cleaning has been completed, it’s time to add those finishing touches that will really bring your home back to life after a party. Start by re-arranging furniture back into its original positions; this will help create an inviting atmosphere as well as making sure there are no tripping hazards!

Finally, don’t forget to give yourself a pat on the back - having successfully cleaned up your home after a big bash is something worth celebrating! So, take this opportunity to tell yourself “job well done” before giving any further thought to what lies ahead – now it's time to relax and enjoy all your hard work!

Conclusion

Once the clean-up is complete you will be able to look back and take pride in all of your hard work. Not only will your home look sparklingly fresh, but the effort you put in has also given it a renewed sense of energy and life (well hopefully). Furthermore, having taken the time to tackle the home cleaning task means that next time around it will be much easier knowing what needs doing.

The benefits of taking the time to clean up after a party far outweigh any initial dread or reluctance; not least because once it’s done you’ll have earned yourself some well deserved rest! After all who doesn't love feeling satisfied with their accomplishments? So don’t let yourself get overwhelmed by daunting tasks - just think of how much better you will feel once it is done. Invite over friends or family members if needed for support and soon enough those pesky post-party blues should disappear into thin air!
