Tip Tops for Speed Cleaning

Uh oh, you have friends coming over in 15 minutes and your house is a wreck! There's no time for a deep clean, or let's face it, even a quick tidy! Visit us and use these hacks to speed clean your house and make it look clean fast .

So today, I'm going to give you some tips on how to clean your house fast juuuuust enough so that you can avoid those distractions and really be able to connect with your guests. But let me also mention that you'll be able to do it quickly and with the least amount of effort, what whaaatttt!

SPEED CLEAN AND CLEAR OFF THOSE SURFACES

If you only have 10-15 minutes to clean your house fast before a friend stops by last minute, then you won't have time to put every item away in its proper spot. Our living room is the place where all the toys and things come to play during the day, but they don't always get put away.

My biggest tip for this is to get a laundry basket or 2 (if you have 2 floors) and put all of the things in the baskets. I put everything that goes upstairs in one basket and everything that stays on the main floor in another basket. I put the baskets where nobody will find them once they're done. This can be in a closet, the laundry room, or my favorite place – the shower – because guests will never look there!

STRAIGHTEN FURNITURE AS YOU SPEED CLEAN

This is another easy way to clean your house fast. Go around and make sure that all of your furniture is straightened and arranged properly. Fix any chairs or tables that have gotten out of whack. Once that's done, straighten your pillows and then give them a good chop! I don't know why pillows need bunny ears, but it makes everything look so polished. Don't knock it 'til you try it!

TAKE CARE OF YOUR DISHES

First up, clean your house fast by gathering all of your dirty dishes. You can either put them all into the sink to clean later, or you can put them unrinsed into your dirty dishwasher and forget about them for now! Then, if you have any clean dishes sitting out on your drying rack on the counter, put them away. If you have the time to actually put them where they go, then do that. But if you don't, hide them away under your sink or in a cabinet. Are you freaking out about not doing the dishes properly? Honey, you're running out of time and you just gotta move, so don't blink an eye at those dishes!

SPEED CLEAN YOUR BATHROOM

Your guests are probably going to need to use the bathroom at some point. And if your bathrooms are anything like mine, you're probably going to need a hazmat suit!

FOLD TOILET PAPER

This is one of the easiest speed cleaning tips – fold your toilet paper to make a fancy tip. This will take you about 5 seconds and will give your bathroom the appearance of being cleaned by professionals!
