The holiday season is over and it
only means one thing: time to clean up the holiday mess. If you have to store
things, the formula is simple: a golf cart cover is to a golf cart as a patio
chair cover is to a patio chair.
The clutter left by all the
partying could be harder to clean if the celebrations were done outdoors, say
the patio. Of course the bigger the party, the bigger the mess, and the more
you should give your furniture some tender loving care and heed these tips to
make them last longer:

First things first. Once
you come to your senses, start your cleanup by picking up litters. Don’t let
leftover foods lie around for a long period of time. But if you really have to
do it at a latter time, at least secure them with a cover. Think creepy
crawlers.
Wash what needs to be washed like
plates and other utensils (disposable ones sure come in handy), and store them
in the cabinet or in a box. Prepare garbage bags for other wastes and dispose
of them properly.
Sweep the floor. Sweep/vacuum
the floor. Newton ’s
law of gravity tells you how important it is to do this after every trash that
can be picked up by hand has been taken care of.
Check for stains. Whether
you like it or not, stains will appear on those white table cloths. The top
home remedy solutions for stains are baby powder and lemon juice. Apply any of
these on the stain and leave them out to get some sun. You’d be surprised how
easy they will be removed when washing.
Wash tables and chairs. Don’t
forget to wash tables, chairs and other furniture with the right cleaner. Spray
some disinfectant to kill bacteria.
That’s it! Live to party another
day. You deserve it after a year’s worth of hard work.
