10 practical tips for arranging a small kitchen in the country preview

12 simple ideas for a small garden that will make it visually spacious

Entrance door

The apartment is known to start with front door, which means that guests will definitely pay attention to it. It is better to remove smudges and fingerprints, and do not forget to check the condition of the outside mat.

Take a look examples of the design of a dirty area in the hallway.

Hallway

Having crossed the threshold of the apartment, guests will find themselves in the hallway. Since it is the first impression that plays an important role, special attention should be paid to the hallway.

The best solution would be remove all unnecessary from itso that guests can hang up their belongings and put on their shoes without any problems.

Smell

Mirrors

People are made so that when they see mirror, will definitely look at it. It is very easy to take care of the mirrors, it is enough to wipe them with a microfiber cloth in a timely manner.

If it turns out that there are too many stains, fingerprints and splashes on the mirror, then you can use special cleaners.

Plumbing cleanliness

Soap

Many people pay attention to the state of the soap. No one will like washing their hands with remnants or a blurry bar of soap. The liquid soap dispenser should look neat.

Towels

If guests come to the house, the best solution is to hang fresh towels for them. Guests will definitely appreciate this momentary business.

Check out the best examples of storing towels in the bathroom.

Plate

If the company of guests is small, then people often prefer cozy gatherings in the kitchen. In this case, the condition of the plate will certainly catch your eye. Even if treats were prepared for the arrival of guests, wiping the stove will still not be superfluous.

Kitchen set

The kitchen set, as well as the stove, will certainly be in sight. Stains, streaks, splashes - all this can spoil the overall impression of the apartment.

In fact, keeping it clean is as easy as shelling pears if wipe regularly... Even if guests are about to descend, it won't take long.

Kitchen table

When hosting guests at the table, make sure that there are no unnecessary items on it. It is best to have a fresh tablecloth, and if there is no tablecloth, then wipe the table well.

It is important for guests to sit comfortably, so comfortable chairs will come in handy.

Dishes

The impression of even the most delicious food and drink can spoil the appearance of the dishes. For example, stains on glasses after washing in a dishwasher. Removing them is as easy as shelling pears. Plates and cutlery should shine too.

Look more a selection of things that give out a bad mistress.

Bookcase

Television

Even the impression from the plasma of the latest model can be spoiled by a layer of dust and stains lying on it. It is easier to remove them with special napkins.

Soft furniture

If the family has pets and small children, the sofa gets dirty much faster. Crumbs, hair, pet hair appear. Before visiting guests tidy up the sofa, remove all blankets and vacuum it.

Carpets

Dust accumulates the fastest on carpets, as well as wool, crumbs and other debris. Guests will definitely pay attention to its condition, so it is best to clean it in a timely manner. Then, before the arrival of guests, you will only need to quickly vacuum it up.

Even the smallest time spent on taking care of the apartment will allow you to always be ready for unexpected visits. From such an apartment, guests will always take with them good impressions and a little bit of envy.

Galya

I remembered a case from my life. By chance, with my friend, I ended up in the apartment of a lonely woman without a husband and children. There was cleanliness and order everywhere. Instead of a towel, there was an old flannel men's shirt hanging by the sink. This surprised me the most. There were 7 of us in my family. The towel hung where it was supposed to!

Well well! We walked all over the house, protested ... Will the guests look under the bed? And then we will quickly wash it there too ... You see, the author, you attracted the zest, the subtlety. As a stroke, do it, and everything else will be unimportant. For example, we lived in a private house, and my mother taught, the threshold is at the entrance and shoes should always be clean.

Each guest also has a home. And not everyone has perfect order. And no one needs to tell what they saw.

The essence of the order is that the house (apartment) needs to be cleaned not for the arrival of guests, but constantly, then there will be no need to rush around like a madman before the arrival of someone rubbing all surfaces and washing everything around. And, as a rule, close people are called to visit, for whom communication is important, and not an ideal routine.

The article was clearly written by a man or a housewife ... It's easy to put the bathroom in order, the stove, the door, etc. It is clear that the house should be clean, but when you come home at seven or half past seven, then you cook dinner, wash something , stroking, doing homework with the child, etc., it's hard to imagine that everything will shine at my house by Friday. When I "lick" the whole apartment on Saturday, I won't want any guests in the evening.

Of course, you need to keep the house clean, but you need to remember that the house is not an operating room, where everything must be sterile and licked. It is stupid to spend most of your free time on a rag with a broom; there are many other more useful and enjoyable things to do. So life will pass))) I think that those who come to visit do not always have an ideal home, you can close your eyes if they are really friends. They do not go on a visit to arrange cleanliness.

It's always nice to come to a house where it's clean. There you can rest and breathe easily. But these are people who have no idea how you can live in mud. Someone is comfortable living in different conditions. We are all different and we will name 100 reasons for not being able to live in cleanliness. And many of them are objective. But it is necessary to strive for purity.

The main rule number 1: do not go without a call !!!! Things that guests pay attention to: 1) cordial and hospitable hosts; 2) A table set from the heart to eat without hesitation and with appetite; 3) The presence of sleeping places, at least a thin mattress on the floor, if you liked it so much that you don't want to go home at night. AND EVERYTHING!

in spite of all your deframs about your friend, you still remember about dust and disorder ... and you say you don't pay. if it was all the same, they would not even remember. and while the usefulness is that it listens to you attentively and closes your need for ears, you are ready to talk about it in this way. and as soon as something bad becomes clear, pour everything on her. I know such people and have not lived for the first day ... they do not pay

Apparently, about himself beloved ... Everyone measures their own standards ...

There is such a thing. You looked the other way, tougher. Many people really only value "other people's ears" for pouring out their problems and use the friend / girlfriend type as a free psychologist. As soon as a friend gets tired of this one-sided game, and the ears are removed, the attitude of the interested person also changes. From a "good" girlfriend can go into the category of "careless, sloppy", "stupid and lack of empathy", etc.

Exactly.

Easier to hire a cleaning service! Before the arrival of the guests she hired - 5 people came by 9 o'clock and by 17 everything was already shiny, the floors were cleaned, the furniture was polished, the doors, window sills were washed, the toilet, the bathroom, the kitchen was washed! Everything is as the author said! And the stretch ceilings were washed, along with the chandeliers. And as they said, I was not tired and pleased to receive guests.

And, the weakest to remove ??? And if the guests come in a year ??)) What, such a slob will sit in the mud ?? Don't you want to live clean yourself?

Excuse me, you had such a dirty apartment that it was scrubbed for 8 hours by 5 people? Better every day a little bit and to unexpected guests the apartment is clean.

Svetlana, you have something with a sense of humor ... The author offers 15 "simple" tips, suggesting, in fact, a large and laborious cleaning, and Anna is ironic over

I agree with you. And then guests will come. and you already want them to leave, and you lay down

Elvira

Now it's easier than ever to maintain cleanliness and order in the house. Everything is mechanized. Washing machine. Dishwasher. Whatever vacuum cleaner you want. You can buy ready-made and tasty food everywhere. Sloths and quitters only know how to sit at the phone. Here we were born 50-60 years ago really difficult. Saturday and Sunday was hard labor. I had to wash all day. to dry the clothes and then iron all day and then they did not complain but met the guests in a clean apartment or house. They treated them with delicious food. The family members were always tidy. They themselves were happy and cheerful. We were glad when our guests came. We could even come without an invitation. Now you won't come without an invitation.

January 17, 2021#Reply

Catherine. 48 years old.

1) those whom you call "sluts and quitters", perhaps, prefer mental labor and in an HOUR they will earn not only in the computer, but also in the phone so much that there will be enough for 10 cleaning ladies. In my opinion, slovens and idlers are not those who do not scrub the apartment around the clock, but those who were too lazy to learn and develop in childhood! And no need to push about the possibilities, Lomonosov in bast shoes was not too lazy to come to Moscow for knowledge, and did not stay to scrub the hut and dig a vegetable garden. 2) It was difficult at any time and for absolutely everyone who chose an unloved occupation and forced themselves to do it, instead of happily doing what you love, but better than anyone else. And life is easier ... and much more joyful! What's in the 19th century, what's in the 21st. And not that with a difference of 30-40 years. 3) your "and then did not complain" you more than covered with a huge pile of complaints in this post, how poor and unhappy you were, especially on Saturdays, so hard labor! Meanwhile, the author of the post did not write a single complaint, but suggested what it is customary to pay attention to without hesitation. 4) based on your own descriptions of CATORGES, after which you were happy to receive guests, it looks more like you SHOWED the guests that you were happy. Either you are not tired in your hard labor. 5) your "could come without an invitation" is not at all respect for other people's borders and someone else's personal space. This is a uniform rudeness and there is absolutely nothing to be proud of! The usual lack of upbringing! Inherent exclusively to the "children of the revolution" and other "descendants of Sharikov." Not a single intelligent family of the BEFORE the Soviet period would ever allow itself this. It's great that this respect is starting to return to our contemporaries! 6) stop SHOWING that you are happy .. try to hear yourself for real and realize that you are deceiving yourself.

Well done! ?

Finally, I see adequate comments on a similar article. Of course, cleanliness is good. But there is nothing criminal in the fact that it is not always possible to maintain it. I have seen many times in articles a photo of a hallway, which is perfect - a clean white floor, a pair of jackets and a few pairs of shoes. If a person lives alone, then yes, of course. Now imagine a family of at least three people - in winter there are already six pairs of shoes, and if you lead an active life, then also ski boots. I don't have a garage or warehouse. And I want the family to walk actively. We have a small corridor in the five-story building. There is: three large bicycles, several unicycle, a frame-inflatable kayak in a large backpack, skis, of course, shoes and other clothes. Another box, in which we collect waste paper, and then the son hands over it at school. A bit cramped and not as neat as the pair of shoes on the white floor in the photo. But my family will enjoy cycling and skiing. I was visiting different people with different apartments. My attitude towards them does not change depending on the purity. The only thing is, I want to drink tea from a clean mug.)) The rest, unwashed floor, dust or dishes in the sink are a private matter of the owners of the apartment. After all, they go on a visit to communicate, and not to conduct an inspection.

I fully support you, Irina, Especially when there are small children in the house, you don't even have time to clean up the toys behind them. My Ukrainian friend is sick with cleanliness, she will lay embroidered bedspreads on the sofa, invites you to sit down, but we are sorry to sit on such beauty.I have been at war with her all my life, as long as we are familiar with her, the patient walks around the house with a rag, rubs constantly. I already told her that when she dies, we will give her a rag in her hands so that she can wipe it near the coffin. You come home from work tired, don't you want to do the cleaning, especially after 60 years. Let those who will not tell what they saw at the owners' house come to visit. And it is also undesirable to come without an invitation.

Ira, you are great, I also think it's better to skate and ski together. My granddaughter and I go skiing even now. Cycling and the river in the summer, and sterility is good in the operating room. And no one now lives in complete disarray. Although I am a mother-in-law, I never carried my daughters-in-law with my nose, and I have three of them, I always tried to help them with something.

Try to rent a place to store things in warehouses for individuals, they are all over the city, clean, heated and comfortable. For the winter, you will get rid of the summer one, and change it in the summer. Home is a place where you relax, and when you make your way through a crowded corridor every day, it’s probably hard to get a buzz from your home.

In our city, 1 square. m. such storage costs a quarter of my salary.

02.02.2021#Reply

I agree COMPLETELY !!! I have a friend who has things everywhere just piled up in heaps, BUT - I still love to come to her)) Sometimes even just sit quietly for 5 minutes to understand that I just have a perfect order)))))

Immediately I remember an anecdote: the mother-in-law comes to her daughter-in-law, and finding dust on one of the far shelves, asks: "What do the people say about this?" The daughter-in-law's answer - "The pig will find dirt everywhere"

great approach to life. On a visit to communicate, and not to check the dust in the apartment.

Yes, skiing almost every day. We put boots under the heating pipes to dry. Sometimes I put crumpled paper inside, moisture is absorbed faster, but after 2-3 hours the paper needs to be removed. And also 2-3 pairs of felt boots. And not 2 jackets. -3 pairs, according to the weather and leisure.

If someone is not satisfied with something from the guests, then the loss is small and Let it not come If you are respected, they will not notice anything And if they came to look at and compare, this is not your guest Where there are just a hundred Angels and where it is strange there is none

Evgeniya

You can close your mouth, but with the eyes it is somehow more difficult.I don't really want to come to the apartment a second time, where at the entrance you stumble over mountains of shoes, where crumbs on the table bite into your hands, and on the floors dig into your feet (usually such people do not have guest slippers), the remnant drowns in a slippery one near and the net is already hanging half a year

Nataliya

What you "drew" is very good. resembles an apartment of "disadvantaged" families. Why do you go there?

I agree with you 100%

Vova

Why don't the guests pay attention to the helipad, the arboretum and the swimming pool? Serve! Ordinary, Eh!

Olga.

I love the neatness of both the person and the apartment, especially when things are in their places. Mom taught me to do it imperceptibly, as she said: "Walking." To do this, you need to learn to NOTICE what is wrong. And when he saw it, then fix it - a matter of minutes, not difficult, and everything is in order. It is also unpleasant that what is called "too much" is when the hostess constantly walks with a rag, scrubs everything and endlessly scolds the household. Nobody sees when I clean, but always order. There are three children, there are animals. Growing up, children do the same, because they need to teach not aggressively, not humiliating or scolding.

And I do not call people who 1) appear suddenly and without invitation 2) climb in corners in someone else's house 3) behave as if they are not guests, but inspectors of the Sanitary and Epidemiological Station

Yes, I knew one. If he touched her polished furniture with his hand, then she immediately ran up with a rag and rubbed this place so that there were no prints. I didn’t go to her anymore, although she wondered why no one came to her.

Respect for guests obliges to offer them clean towels, a new bar of soap, no debris and dirt on the floors and tables. Otherwise, it makes sense to invite if you do not respect. The main thing is not to overdo it.

January 11, 2021#Reply

You come to someone on business or to visit, just visit a friend and what you are looking for at her dust, because the eyes, that is, she will treat you with tea and you will also see that the cups are not washed. And from them you will not want to drink. Therefore, I always make sure that no one can be caught by surprise. And the most pleasant thing is when it's clean. I live alone, but I never throw this habit away, because at any time someone can come. Suddenly you are ill, you do not call the doctor at home, and the bathroom and the toilet are disgraceful. And what a shame.And you can't get rid of people, you sometimes need help from them. I had a friend much older than me, I called her cardiologists at night and saved a man. Now I have a 40 year old friend and trouble and revenue.

there is no one to live and there is no conversation. but the children are husband and everyone thinks that you are the cleaner behind them

Olesya

Yes, when you live alone, it is convenient to have the habit of not throwing anything away and always cleaning up after you. But when you live with your husband, and even with children, it turns out that you simply do not have time to clean up after everyone. It is especially hard when the children are still young, and the husband is "so used to it."

Larissa.

Let me give you a little advice, since this is a stage I have already passed. there is no hope for a husband, if he is "so used to it" and God is with him, that is not why you fell in love with him. But teach your children from early childhood. Moreover, at the age of 3 and older, they help their mother willingly. True, this is somewhat troublesome, because then you need to wash after them, but this will soon pass and you will receive real help both when washing dishes and cleaning the apartment. I say this because after listening to the advice of my mother, the Kingdom of Heaven, she did what I advise you. I have no daughters, but my sons know very well, can and do all the homework. By the way, all my daughters-in-law use them without a twinge of conscience, but this is so, by the way. The goals will be, they will not break, especially since now every apartment has a maximum of adaptations. you will clean up after all alone, you will never have order and you will be like that driven horse. No joy either from those guests, or from life itself.

You are a great fellow that the boys help you.

tamara

100% agree with you! But for this there are a lot of efforts to educate children (and are there many of them now?) That children need to be taught to work, the concepts of cleanliness, hygiene, correct behavior, respect for elders (give way to grandmother), many know, but few do. So we meet often and thickly a mess in the rooms of children ... And then in their homes. And then in their souls. I also have 2 sons (the situation is similar) I agree, as my mother said, "they will not break"

Arina

that's it)) when the children and husband sincerely do not understand how the bathtub and toilet are made clean)))

I'm not looking for dust in my friends' apartments. In my apartment I clean for myself, not for show. And I got rid of my friends, whose arrival I learned by opening the door!

Lelya

This is stupid. If my friends come unexpectedly, they still have dust on the shelf or a mug in the sink. They come to laugh or for support. And we can also come to them without looking into the corners. But the "cleanliness inspectors", just all pass by

how did you get rid of?

galina

I, too

Psychologists note: If you do not like "something" with someone and you condemn and discuss it, then this "something" is present with you. You just don't notice it. If you are happy about "something" in someone, you admire it, then you also have this "something", but it is not developed.

What then to discuss, Olga? The weather? Or is she also not neutral?

In short, everything needs to be scrubbed)))

We had friends, whenever we came, she is with a rag in her hands, you sit like in a museum, you are afraid to touch something. We have not been friends for a long time and we feel very good, we don’t miss them.

Likewise, not only friends, but parents. We live in another city and come on vacation, holidays - with two children and a cat.And so it begins: do not touch the walls, do not scatter toys, do not eat in the room. And wool is everywhere! So long after our departure they collect it and tell where and in what quantity they found it.

Hope

Exactly

In short, clean up the whole apartment, normal people are disgusted to come in! And then you can arrange a shit again?

Helena

Crumbs on the couch? On the carpet?!! You need to eat in the kitchen, not on the couch. Well, in general, the advice is correct. However, these are just tips on how to keep the apartment tidy, not how to please guests. Why such guests who come to examine and discuss hosts? Drive the lice of such guests

The secret of a perfectly cleaned two-room apartment is that it is a three-room (s) very suitable?

I will reveal one more secret! A perfectly cleaned two-room apartment (according to your version) can eventually turn into a perfectly cleaned one-room apartment ...

Brilliant !!!

15 points - here comes the cleaning :)

Fan

I do not expect those guests who can give me an assessment. Eight rooms, three bathrooms with a toilet, a sauna in the house, a sauna on the street. (((But I don't have a housekeeper (((and only my own come. With strangers in the restaurant)))

You sit and read all sorts of crap and comment ... When do you clean 8 rooms with three bathrooms and saunas, or you don't use them, but run to the toilet and to the street, to the barn ???

Once a week is enough. And plumbing - as it gets dirty

Cool Like crumpled eggs.

Class !!!

Laysan

It's easier for me not to direct the marafet in front of the guests, but in the evening it is good to devote time to the house: put everything in its place, wipe the dust, start the robots, turn on all the equipment, freshen the bathrooms, change towels ... But in the morning I got up: I was in a good mood, and home cleanliness!

Tanya

A friend will come - he will not notice the shortcomings. And the enemy will find something to complain about in an ideal apartment.

And I am of the same opinion))))?

Valeriy

Right.

I always tell someone not to like something and do not have to go to my house.

Yes, just me

Well yes. Ideally, but not always it turns out ...

If you enter a people's house, be there blind, and when you go out, be dumb. Do not look for faults in the house where you are, and if you find it, do not tell anyone ... Wisdom.

Exactly!

Tamara

This is RIGHT !!!

Old and wise wisdom!

Very correct

They took off the Language, Lyudmila!

natalia

Bravo

I completely agree with you

If there is no housekeeper, then there will be no cleanliness. We live, use the apartment, and do not save it for guests!

Right! I also do this - in the evening, when everyone has settled down (a family of 5 people) I walk through the house, clean up everything that was scattered in places, in the kitchen I wipe everything with a damp cloth (table, stove and other items soiled during the day, I make sure that the dishes are washed and in my places ... I ran through the rooms with a damp mop and everywhere cleanliness and freshness ... And when visiting friends, I don't look for flaws, I come to talk and not look for dust on the shelves and stains on the mirrors ... The apartment is not a museum, living people live in it ...

Fuck. You apparently are not working. And I will not run around with a mop and a rag "when everyone has settled down" at 12 at night.

Irina R.

Exactly) After work, there is usually no strength to clean)

Rita

right! I generally do the cleaning after the guests. so shit .... my house is always clean. Well, I'll wash the toilets! yes, the shells are all the preparation! but after the guests ..... I will not shit my place in half a year, as they do in one evening and night.

Irina.

And I do not care about the doors, the kitchen and all the other crap from the people I come to visit, but I usually come to visit my closest friends, and not in order to evaluate how the apartment is cleaned, but to talk to remember interesting moments of our life discuss plans for the future, for joint trips, for example, on vacation, etc., and yes, guests come without warning, there are such complaints, I don’t know how, but if people who come to visit are only interested in perfect cleanliness and order and then they also manage to discuss it with someone and moan the owners, then nafik needs such guests, they are no longer friends.

I am of the same opinion

"Such a situation 2 - it is strongly said!

Alla

You will definitely condemn ... well, the woman was sealed, so what? You will not be invited to visit.

Mila

You're right! How annoying such literate philologists are, and in almost every discussion

Isolde

IT WILL BE EASIER TO REFUSE THE VISIT OF GUESTS AT ALL

Agree. Why do we need such guests !!!

I also agree. And we have renovations, we are building, a private house, we have relatives who come and start: but here it was necessary to build like this, but here the corner is not like that. The husband is building himself, alone without help. I tell them that something was not near you when he alone raised the walls of bricks.

I totally agree!

Julia

it's true

LARISA

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE, BUT IT'S MOST PLEASANT TO SEE CLEAN SURFACES AND MIRRORS, THEREFORE I DO EVERYTHING FOR MYSELF AND NOT FOR GUESTS AND DO NOT SHOOT ANYBODY, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN AND GRAND-CHILDREN, IF EVEN SOMETHING LIKE

I confirm that white furniture 100% removes the problem with dust. Of course, in reasonable aisles;)

Limit!

yana

And the guests have nothing to do with you, get together in neutral.

I also think so.

If you clean it right away, you won't be ashamed at all. My grandmother also said to me: - You just need to decide for yourself that the mess ANNOUNCES you. Then you won't be sloppy.

And all the author has "easier than light" - a sickly general cleaning is obtained. Yes, fig such guests! Health and strength are more expensive.

To be honest, I clean the house so that the children and myself were pleasant and comfortable, and the fact that guests come there, whether the guests like something or not, I’m kind of obscene about it.

I always have repairs and therefore everything is always dirty except the toilet. I decided that at least the toilet bowl should always be clean in my shit, so I am not ashamed to receive guests. They have no better at home

I clean for myself and for the children. It’s unpleasant when the sink is in boxes and toothpaste, the toilet is in kakah, the stove is dirty .. and our mirrors are smeared with minipens on an important day. Are rotten towels nice? Crumbs on the floor and clubs of girly hair nice?

07.01.2021#Reply

That is why I do not invite guests to my place. And those rare guests who do come come to me, not to my apartment.

tata

two rules ... coming to visit. you must become blind. and leaving their guests, dumb. .. I like this principle

Barbara

What a smart girl! This is the principle !!! SMART !!!

fkkf

how can you be blind and deaf when you come to a house with mud and a pig? You must certainly tell everyone what kind of mistress is a pig and a dirty one, although she does not forget to paint her lips and nails with manicure.

I have such a neighbor, and she comes to us, even the snow won't brush off my shoes, although the broom is next to the door.

Anya

Exactly aha

Did she invite you as a friend? Then I don't even know which one of you is the big pig

Vittorria

You will tell and you will certainly be known as a slander and a gossip, and also a hypocrite. It's more familiar to you, right? Do you accept the hospitality of not very neat hosts, sit there smiling, and then let's spread the news? And then, why come to visit the mud and the pig?))) Or are these friends? And tell me who your friends are .., and further in the text.

Inna

I have a similar situation, I bought an apartment without renovation, a classmate calls me - you’re at home, I’ll go right in. I went in. we talked normally. Before the new year, another classmate calls - she congratulated so - I will remember this congratulation for the rest of my life. In general, teach me how and what to do in the apartment. It turns out that a classmate called her and, in all the colors of the rainbow, told me how bad I am - I have no curtains in the kitchen, and so on.

I totally agree with you.

Luda

Wasn't it easier to just write in one word, before the guests came to clean up?

Alex

Where to?...)))))))

Angry mouse

go on a visit)

There is nothing to visit without warning.

Ella

I will never go to visit without an invitation, and I do not expect to see myself.

Of course, the hosts are unpleasant in front of the guests that they were taken by surprise. If they themselves are unwashed, in a dirty robe. But you can see - old dirt, monthly unwashed or a slight mess. You have to apologize and serve something on the table. Now, if there is nothing to treat, it is worse ...!

Simply Maria

If you are invited to visit and there is nothing to treat, then somehow it does not work out very well ... But, if I myself go to visit without an invitation, then I will never go empty-handed. At least something must be brought for tea. After all, people did not wait for me and it is not my fault that they did not prepare anything. But usually I go to my friends to talk, and not help themselves)

????????

galya

I almost died this new year. from cleaning and cooking

Zoey

I have one friend of the Light who goes to visit without warning and then hait everyone. It's disgusting.

Neat

Great tips! I always pay attention to cleanliness in other people's houses and apartments) if a person is neat in everything and in the house, cleanliness and order, especially when he can make candy out of trifles and create coziness. You can always notice this, you want to return to this house) you want to sit there) it's warm there. Sometimes the desire for cleanliness and cleaning gives its results) everything is clean, tidy and ready to receive guests. By all the little things in the kitchen, in the bathroom, you can always understand whether a person is neat or tidy.

And such guests are not needed who do not want to leave, because the house is warm and cozy. Some sit until you send them in plain text.

Clean, totally agree with you. If the hosts are assholes, it’s better not to invite guests. so as not to be disgraced. Even if the guests are "blind" and "dumb" they will still have negative impressions.

I do not pay attention to the tidiness when visiting, there are people who do not have the strength to scrub all the time, there are those who work for days, eat with very poor eyesight, eat with sick children or parents, and you never know what circumstances interfere with cleaning

! margarita

!!!!!

Alyona)))

And what do you care about someone else's cleanliness and neatness?))) And such a goat in life can be paramount)))

Artyom

And when the guests leave, after them all the doors and smudged mirrors, plumbing is dirty, etc., etc.

06.01.2021#Reply

The same garbage, all the door mirrors, plumbing, and so on, everything is stained, first you wash for guests, then wash after them

Mary

Strange guests come to you. They must be from the zoo ...

Yes, in a coffin, I would like to see such guests who will stare at the stains on the mirror and sink! Let them sit at home and rub their tables and sinks a hundred times! I never even pay attention to all this! I'm going to PEOPLE! Not sinks! And so are my friends.

Yes, you-I'm generally done! You look at life real

so I tell my friends: I'm going to communicate, and not to see if you have an order or not! I'm not a volatile Lena! so we rarely meet, let's enjoy the fact that we have been friends for so many years !!

SO AND IT IS NECESSARY TO LIVE, and not in a constant thought, what will they think of you, well done!

I clean everything, and I clean ... And there is no end and edge, and my best friend is on skis, then on skates, then on canvas, yoga ... Today she is in the sauna, and I ...

Tata

I thought I was the only one so chekadyrashnaya !!!

Larissa

So you will not notice how life will go ... You are over 60, and you only have a rag in your hands ... And life is information, feelings, impressions, and not stains on mirrors, they will be lost. There should be a measure for everything.

The dust will outlive us

Are you seriously? Then you can only clean and do around the clock. I cleaned the apartment once a week - that's enough! There are many other things to do besides cleaning! And whoever doesn't like it - goodbye

Moral: it is better not to invite guests home.

Right. Now is not the time for guests. Better to sit in "neutral waters". In some cafe.

Maroussia

Therefore, it is now becoming fashionable to meet in neutral territory, for example, in a cafe. At the same time, you don't have to prancing around the stove to please the guests.

Lena.

That's right, it's better on a non-alcoholic car, and you will take a break from everything.

Margarita

If all of the above is kept in this order, then there is no need to do a general cleaning.

it turns out that everything is paid for and it is necessary to polish all day long, otherwise suddenly someone will come.

Came to visit, close your eyes, came out, close your mouth

The meaning of life is repair and cleaning! From morning to evening, clean everything, change towels, wash dishes and ... in a muzzle! Don't think about anything or think about anything else - neither about the eternal nor about the beautiful - because there will be no more strength and brains left for anything (((SCAZZZZ)))

Not in the eyebrow but in ,,,,

LYUDMILA

Exactly!!!

My sister-in-law took my mother-in-law to the theater, I ask - did you like the performance? And she told me - what a performance, snares on the ceiling, snares ... So, who goes after what. And the one who then judges the cleanliness in the master's house no longer wants to be invited

Bella

Svetlana, what is a snare on the ceiling?

Valya

Svetlana, snares are a cobweb, I can't imagine how to remove dust from ceilings in a theater, at least not once a month. And the wings are rarely changed there, if the mother-in-law knew how much dust there is ...

Anthony

well, you most likely will not know who will gossip about you! The best option is to first go to an average cafe together and see how a person will behave, and then you can go home if such a test passes

Irina Alexandrovna

but what a sin to conceal, we all look at the state of the apartment when visiting! just not everyone admits to himself. and then they zaglaza sand that they say the floor of the gali is dirty. of course this is wrong, but for many, order in the house will say a lot about the hostess.

Yaya

The most comfortable house in the world belonged to the most unprofitable aunt. All this garbage, not for everybody. Why the hell are you visiting? Check the dust with a white cloth? Or laugh, chat?

and my friend does not look at what is on the table, but looks at all corners whether there is dust or not and what is how it lies

Most likely, this is how the mother-in-law is preparing for the arrival. Yes mother-in-law are different.

Lyubov Nikolaevna.

And why are you so not ready for your mother-in-law, and for your mother. I am 18 years old mother-in-law, I have two daughters-in-law, 8 grandchildren. So they are happy to see me. I help them, give them freedom, send them to the cinema, or sit in a cafe together. And we find entertainment with our granddaughters and grandchildren !!! You just need to find a golden thread with your daughters-in-law, love them as your daughters. And I wish you to be kinder to your mother-in-law.

Irina Polukhina

Your golden words!

well done

Alexander

guests pay attention to what is on the kitchen table, and not to dust and stains

Sandro

Seriously, you think so. Just like paying attention to EVERYTHING.

Margot

You come home from work, and every day, let's wipe EVERYTHING - bookshelves, plumbing, floors, doors, dishes, mirrors, vacuuming sofas, carpet, etc., otherwise suddenly the guests will come! Fast. If you have time. And cook dinner too. And fall exhausted.

Rufina

Are these guests coming or the sanitary and epidemiological station?

05.01.2021#Reply

Natasha

Slightly maintaining order, not stressful. It is imperative for guests to refresh the floor and cook something tasty. I cook 2-3 dishes so as not to get tired and have the strength to communicate. A measure is needed in everything.

class

People, live easier, who cares about your sterility, real friends won't pay attention to it ...

sigrey

smelling towels will definitely spoil my mood even in a rented apartment with tattered walls.

Before the guests arrive, it is urgent to take everything out of the apartment !!!! And it will be very clean ...

Vladimir

And why is a wooden stump in the bathroom needed? For decoration or exotic?

Probably chop off the chicken's head or chop the meat before the guests arrive to prepare dinner for them.

Aliya

It is better to meet guests in a cafe. And no one will look out for dirt and dust.

People are different: some don't let go of the rag and vacuum cleaner, others don't notice. Still others, do not consider it necessary to mess around every day to the detriment of rest and hobbies.

In general, following the article, you need to clean up the entire apartment.

Anton M.

you know, you always need to tidy up the whole apartment, and not just to the guests

And generally clean up. Only the curtains were not advised to wash, the rest was cleaned up. That's it, I turned off the bell, why not such guests ...

And you have to go to visit by invitation or notify in advance about the visit. An unnamed guest is worse ...

Vita

A familiar Tatar said that "an uninvited guest is better than a Tatar" And everything ended with laughter. In general, I try to maintain order. Children live separately, there is no one to glove. Familiar around the clock with a rag in her hands. The result is psychosis and hatred of guests.

Kat

And why the heck these guests come suddenly, but really in order to draw attention to all this ???

Sagan

absolutely right. then they will be glad to you and not in a hurry to meet

NATALIE

For yourself, you need to do this regularly and not for guests

Vladlena

In order not to think about cleaning, you just need to maintain order in the apartment, not run it. Got dirt somewhere, once and wiped it - 1 minute. Put things where you took them from. Hang clothes in the closet, not on chairs. Well, of course, if there are animals or small children in the apartment, then it's harder. But the demand from you is less. After all, it is clear that the child throws toys, and the cat throws wool. But all the same it is clear that in principle it is clean, and a little mess is forgivable. I got up - clean the bed, ate - wash the dishes, saw the dust - wipe it off. It does not take much time, but it is always clean and there is no need to do a general cleaning.

You probably live alone. And if, besides you, there are 3 more people who believe that it is more convenient to take things where you put them. And then wash the dishes and so on. You’ll just go after everyone and clean up. Or swear constantly.

exactly! and the dog needs to be told so that she picks up the wool and walks with a rag - ate, gnaws a bone on the bedding - immediately removes it ... and for a cat - so that the tray after itself is washed immediately with disinfection, for children - a set of instructions and a set of instructions for her husband so that he does not open his socks , tools with unfinished work, wallpaper to be glued in all rooms at once, common pots and pans should be washed immediately, and food should be eaten ... this is to make the guests happy! And the most in outfits to go - God forbid a robe - what if it comes suddenly? and you're not wearing makeup anymore ?!

Lera

Well, yes ... pots and pans have to stand for weeks with leftover food - is that more pleasant for you?

I absolutely agree with you. It's hard for those who start up their homes, and then find an excuse for their laziness.

smart girl, Natalie

I like to keep it clean, it's nice and cozy ourselves. I am for cleanliness both in the house and in the entrance and on the street, it's nice when it's clean .............

Indeed, it is so pleasant when it is clean and comfortable around. And it's easy to breathe.

When to do it? At work for days, at home to lie to sleep only. Better not to let guests in

If guests suddenly appear, then you will not have time to vacuum, wipe mirrors, plumbing, remove crumbs from the sofa, wipe dust on bookshelves, this should be done regularly

Perhaps, in this case, it is better to visit yourself?)))

Iriea

All things should be in their places. You wash the stove immediately after cooking, right there and the floors in the kitchen in the corridor; at the same time and aired. Make it a habit to change the towel in the bathroom and in the kitchen every other day, wash the toilet, sink and bathroom immediately after use. I share my habits. One problem is dust ... and the bathroom mirror ... is an ambush. terribly infuriating

NINA

I agree with you, but now there are special napkins for the mirror and there is no problem either.

Tanja

White furniture takes away the dust problem!)

Nat

lack of furniture removes the dust problem
