Cleaning Tips Before Christmas Here are the best tips and top ways to handle your holiday cleaning this year (and in the many Christmases to come). Following this step-by-step holiday cleaning checklist, you’ll be able to turn your messy, soiled, disty, and disorganized house into a clean Christmas fairytale and have time to spare. Before you star here is our most important tip for you: Don’t put it off cleaning till the 23rd of December or else it’ll be too late and you’ll be wondering how to manage everything on time.
