While it's tempting to clean for hours the day of your holiday party, don't. Remember not even 20 minutes after your guests arrive, the place is going to be a happy mess. Do your cleaning, such as dusting, sweeping, mopping, and other weekly chores a couple of days before, then concentrate on keeping the clutter picked up and putting out your holiday decorations instead.

Light up the night.

There's nothing more festive at a holiday party than having candles lit, especially if those candles are scented with holiday fragrances. Take the time to strategically place a few candles in the rooms you'll be in.

If you're worried about them being a fire hazard choose flameless candles instead. Light the candles about 20 minutes before your guests start to arrive. If you've opted for scented candles, this will give them a chance to spread their sweet aroma. 

These are just a few tips for getting yourself and your home ready for the holiday party season ahead. Remember, the holidays are supposed to be fun, so don't stress and ruin them when you can follow the tips above instead!
