10 Steps To A Guest-Ready Bathroom

With visitors due to land on your doorstep over Christmas and the summer holidays, it’s time to spruce up your bathroom to make them feel welcome from the moment they arrive. With a few clever hacks you’ll be able to create a sanctuary in no time at all. And the best news is, it won’t cost you a fortune. Let’s get started!

1 PARE IT BACK

Start with a thorough declutter. “Pull everything out of one small space at a time and sort into three piles – remove forever, remove for now and stay in there,” says Rebecca Mezzino of Clear Space Organising Services. Anything old, expired or damaged goes in the bin. “Remove things you don’t want your guests to see, such as medications, wart cream, prescriptions,” adds Rebecca. These go in a temporary storage box along with half-used packets and the bathroom scales (no need for those at holiday time!).

EXPERT TIP

Fill a box with duplicate must-have items, says Rebecca, and store it elsewhere permanently. “That becomes your little Priceline that you go to when you run out of stuff,” she explains.

2 MAKE A CLEAN START

It’s now time to make the space sparkle. “Start by dusting and vacuuming the whole bathroom, including inside the drawers and cupboards,” says Cathy Littlejohn of Platinum Staffing Agency, a Sydney-based provider of premier cleaners. Next, she recommends putting product on your grout so it has at least half an hour to work its magic. “Once you’ve cleaned each area, wipe it with a damp cloth followed by a dry microfibre cloth for a streak-free look,” says Cathy.
