Simple Guidelines For Cleaning Up After Diwali
Diwali is India’s most important celebration. The celebrations run five days and bring relatives and friends together. But what happens once the festivities are over? Because Diwali is a holiday of lights, fireworks, rangoli, chocolates, and visiting relatives, your house suffers the most. With rangoli on the floor and discarded papers and dried flowers spread throughout the house, we must recognise that our houses, terraces, and walks are in serious need of cleaning. However, removing the tenacious cracker stains or rangoli colours requires some work. Fortunately, if you follow this step-by-step advice, clearing your home after Diwali may be less hard and unpleasant.
Clean up the kitchen.
The kitchen is one room in the house that demands the major attention after Diwali. Diwali necessitates the preparation of several dishes, which causes the kitchen to become messy. Take some time to properly organise your kitchen. To make the kitchen appear new again, wash and put away the holiday dinnerware.
Reorganize your living space.
During Diwali, this is without a doubt the most utilised place in the house as members assemble to celebrate. Thus, here are some easy methods to tidy your living room after Diwali:
- Eliminate any damaged or worthless things from the event, such as a vase or a stack of papers. Analyse each item in the room to determine whether it has a place there.
- Put objects that are linked collectively, such as remote controls, books on the bookshelf, and board games.
- Restore the candles with ordinary lighting and add the original couch and cushion covers.
Handle ‘cracker chaos’
The biggest ‘post-Diwali headache’ is cracker burns on your terrace and balcony flooring. Pigment stains might be difficult to remove if not removed soon. Flower pots and Chakris are the most common causes of cracker stains. Lemon is quite effective in extracting stubborn stains. Another cleaning agent is bleaching powder. Allow it to sit on the floor for about 2-3 hours before washing it off. Instead, spray kerosene or spirit on the spots and wipe them away with a towel.
Floors with oil stains should be cleaned.
During Diwali, your floors are subjected to a variety of stains. Remove any stains before they become permanent marks. Eliminating oil stains (left by Diyas) is not the same as eliminating cracker strains. For oil stains, use a natural substance such as vinegar. After allowing the vinegar to soak into the oil, scrape it with a scrubbing brush.
