In an ideal world the build-up to the holidays would all be about creating (calming) festive cheer. Dinners with friends, hosting drinks for neighbors, and doing all the warm fuzzy stuff like light switch ons and carol concerts. Now, you can tick all those things off your Christmas wishlist, but there's still that underlying stress that while you are doing all this hosting and celebrating, your home should be looking at its best.
With Christmas and New Year always comes the need for our houses to be more organized and more clutter-free than ever. Of course, a lot of this has to do with the fact we want guests to think we live like this all year round, but also we want to hold onto that feeling we could Iive like this all year round. If you can fit in a quick declutter before New Year's, you are getting off on the right foot for 2024.
