During Diwali, you will be cooking lots of
delicious dishes for your family and friends and
for that maintaining proper cleanliness in your
kitchen is a must. Start cleaning your kitchen by
throwing old and expired ingredients equipment
that you havent used for years. After this,
clean all your shelves and cabinets with
detergent and cloth. Put a label on the items for
easy identification. The items, which you use
daily, keep them on the drawer or cabinet which
is easily accessible. Make use of hooks and dish
racks to organize your cutlery, dishes, mugs and
others. Take everything out from your fridge and
clean it with a cleaning liquid and cloth.

Bedroom
Always start cleaning from the top of the room.
For example, start by cleaning the cobweb on the
walls or roof, dust on the fan, windows
and others. After that, move your furniture and
wipe off the dust from the floor. Wash all the
fabrics in your room including curtains, bed
sheets, pillow covers, rugs and others. Clean all
the window glasses with a glass wiper or soft
cloth. Keep all your quilts, cushions and pillow
in sun to remove the damp smell or dust mites, if
any. Organize your wardrobe by sorting the
clothes you dont wear and donating them to
someone needy.

Living Room
This room often gets dirty easily as it is one of
the most used rooms in the house. Start by
gathering things that are not at their
desired places and put them back at their
respective places. Clean the ceiling fan
and walls. After that, remove all the curtains,
draperies and wash them. Clean the door, windows,
decorative items and others. Finally, clean the
entire floor using a good quality of microfibre
mop so there are no stains on your floor after
cleaning.

Bathroom
Make your shelves empty by removing all the items
shampoos, soaps, scrubs, body washes,
toothbrushes and others. Then, clean the shelves
with a cleaning liquid. Pour the toilet cleaner
in the insides of the WC and allow it to sit for
some time. By the time, clean all the faucets,
shower head, mirror and taps in your bathroom.
Finally, scrub the tiles and floor using a
disinfectant.

Cleaning Walls
Cleaning all the walls of the house can be a
tough task especially if the paint is not
easy-to-clean. If you have kids or pets in your
house then there are more chances of walls
getting dirty. Clean your walls with a soft
sponge dipped in the washing liquid. If the walls
are too dirty to be cleaned with a liquid, go for
repainting.

Dont Forget the House Exteriors!
Your house exterior is the first impression of
the visitors. So, if it needs to be repaired then
dont ignore it. If you want to paint your house
go for the paints that stay the same for years
and you dont have to paint your house every year.
Once the entire cleaning of your house is done,
start doing your Diwali decorations. It has been
believed that the bright lights during Diwali
removes the darkness and brings happiness and
prosperity to your house. Hang lights and
lanterns on the doors windows and decorate
every corner of the house with diyas. Make
rangolis at the entrance to welcome the guests.
The decoration of the house should not be limited
to lights and lanterns but also revive your sense
of smell in a lovely way. Therefore, make your
house smell good with fresh flowers, scented
candles, room spray and others. Hope the above
tips will be helpful for you to clean your home
thoroughly. Diwali or No Diwali house cleaning
doesnt harm anyone!!
