Our Best Holiday Hosting Tips
#1 Get Your Home Ready
If you’re hosting the holidays this year, one of the first things that you will need to do is to get your home ready for your guests. You will want to make a plan a few days before you will host and take the time to go over everything that needs to be cleaned and organized. Doing this a few days before you have everyone over will give you plenty of time to make sure that each space is clean and that you have all that you need to gather with your friends and family. You won’t want to rush through cleaning and having a plan of the things that you need to get done will allow you to stay on track and get everything done. You can clean the bathrooms, kitchen, and common area, and if you have people staying with you, you can take the time to prep their space. Getting your home ready before the day of your event will allow you to focus on the food that you need to prepare.
#2 Prep What You Can
The holidays are all centered around food and getting everything together can be stressful but if you take the time to prep what you can beforehand, it will make your day a breeze. You can set aside some time to cut up all of your ingredients, measure everything out, and even get a few dishes all put together so you can pop them in the oven when it is time for them to cook. This will allow you to focus on the big items before everyone comes over and you will have more time to socialize and spend time with your guests without worrying about what is going on in the kitchen. Prepping will also cut down on the dishes that you have to do before everyone starts arriving. By getting everything prepped before the day of your celebration, you will be able to enjoy being in the moment with your guests.
#3 Don’t Forget to Decorate
Hosting may be stressful but you don’t want to forget to decorate your home for the holidays. You can create a warm and welcoming vibe in your home with a few decorations, or you can go all out for the celebration. Whatever holiday you’re celebrating, there are plenty of decorations that you can choose from so you can create the right atmosphere in your home. Start out small with a tablescape that will offer the perfect backdrop for your meal and then you can work on the rest of the areas in your home. This will be the fun part of hosting and it allows you to show off your creative side and transform your home into a holiday oasis.
