Wine bottles are empty. The candles had their last flicker. And the last guest went home. You want your feet to put up with a great sigh of relief, but wait - do not do cleaning.
Perform any cleaning, if your Christmas is finished at the end of the night is not like a may seem particularly glamorous. But some nursing homes output immediately is to lighten your load when you wake up the next morning. And storage is not so difficult if you have a game plan.
Turn off the first upset
Walk around the house with two bags - one for trash and one for recyclables - and start all tables cleaning. Mix paper cups and plates, crumpled napkins and food on the designated garbage bags and placing bottles and cans in the bag of recyclables. Preventive measures also help: In my holidays, decoration large boxes with wrapping paper and bows on the front labels set that say "Trash" and the line then the crates with large garbage bags so when the end of "recycling". Afternoon is already done most of the work for me.
round dishes
Collect all authentic dishes, glasses and cutlery, take it into the kitchen and put them immediately into the dishwasher. You get better, they feel out of sight. All are what neatly stacked in the sink tomorrow do not fit into the dishwasher.
clean stains
Arm yourself with paper towels and spray all-purpose cleaners, leakage and the search for scraps of food. Clean surfaces prevent night spots the biggest problems the next day to be.
visit leaves
If you agitated tablecloths or napkins, the sink or on the porch and checkpoints. Pulverizing brands of wine, food or lipstick with a stain remover, then to obtain the music in the disc as soon as possible, so that the points are not set. While you are there, take all the towels in the bathroom, guests can use - that need to be washed.
Removing candle wax
I love the ambient light of candles provided, especially for the holidays, but I do not know how, if the wax is obtained throughout. Fortunately, it is relatively easy to remove wax from objects such as candlesticks. Place in the freezer overnight, and when the wax solidifies and becomes brittle, easily scratch. When glass containers like wax candle holders, who have in them poured to boil water in the container. The wax melts and floats to the surface. Then, when the water cools, hardens and the wax can be poured (but not in the sink).
If candle wax comes into contact with tablecloth, place the cloth in the freezer and scrape the wax and after curing. If there is still a stain of wax on the fabric, put a paper bag over the stain and iron on the lowest setting. Remnants of wax will be absorbed into the bag.
Candle wax, which flowed through a wooden table can be removed in the same manner. Some ice cubes in a plastic bag and run the ice on the wax until it hardens. Then use a credit card has expired, to scrape the wax, the positioning of the card at an angle of 45 degrees, such as scratches.
Keep leftovers
I'm a stand that food safety can not be activists food too long at room temperature. Most likely you will have leftovers, so plan ahead. ready with plastic containers. Better yet, offer customers the container before leaving, so they pack food and get some of them out of their hands. And throw away any spoiled what could have been, such as sauces and cheese.
Now, with the chaos after the party under control, you can in your pajamas, roll in your comfy bed and have pleasant dreams - like the challenge of celebrating holidays next year is assumed.
