House Cleaning for Diwali: 7 Tips for A Quick Festive Makeover

Make room for new

Before you can go about getting new furniture and new appliances, or even designing a new room layout you need to make way for it. This means getting rid of all your old, unused/rarely used things and making space for the new. While junking your old things you also need to do a thorough home cleaning. When you have heavy or large furniture that you’re getting rid of (like that old-fashioned almirah in your bedroom) you’ll notice that under the almirah, and behind it, there will be plenty of dust and discolouration. Before your new furniture comes in, you need to call in professional cleaning services, they will come in and clean these spots for you. The advantage of getting professional home cleaners is that they use professional-grade cleaning materials that will give you immaculate results, you won’t be able to achieve these results with off-the-shelf cleaning products.

Add a splash of paint

Now that we spend much more time in our houses, we want it to look better and reflect our personality better, the best way to achieve both is by choosing the right home painting services. If you noticed, I said home painting services and not home paint colour, when you get the right home painting services, they will suggest what colour, what type of paint, what designs and what hues will look best on your walls. They will even create 3D renders of how your walls will look based on the colour you choose. House painting is not cheap, you don’t want to spend tens of thousands and end up with results you hate, so be sure to get the best for your home. When you do meet with the painters, ask for an accent wall. An accent wall will stand out from all the other rooms in your house, it is usually a different colour and you can even have designs and prints on the wall. It is a showstopper, a wall that gets all the attention and breaks the monotony in your home. In the days of frequent Zoom calls and House Party catch-ups, it’s great to have a beautiful accent wall as your backdrop. Get professional painters here.

Upgrade your furniture

Now that you have more space in your home, and it is clean and painted, you can get new furniture to upgrade the look and feel of your home. You no longer have to have a huge clunky sofa, now you’ll find sleek and stylish modern designs available in the market, and they come in great discounts too! If you’re living in a small home, then you need to go about your home interior design very carefully and pick multifunctional furniture. You can hire interior designers or look at designs online and get experienced carpenters to come in and create the designs that you choose. You can check out some furniture options here.

An alternative to painting

If you don’t want to paint your home, then there are many other ways in which you can dress up your walls and make them look good. One popular method is by adding decals, these stickers are available online, they come in a huge variety of styles and colours and are easy to stick, and affordable too! If house painting is not an option, and decals also are not your thing, then you can always choose wallpaper. These are great for an accent wall and are a great substitute for wall painting. Putting it up can be a bit tricky, but it is cheaper than painting and can be done yourself.

Get the right accessories

Just like you would invest in accessories for your outfits, you need to invest in some accessories for your home too. Simple accessories like mirrors, can make your home look larger and brighter. The right curtains can help your home look grander, brighter and more festive. You can also invest in matching accessories to give your home a more uniform theme, like matching curtains, cushions and rugs, etc. Choose royal reds, golds, or yellows to add more of a festive touch to your space. You can even look at commissioning a painting (if you have something specific in mind) or just buy one online, there is nothing as eye-catching, expressive, or festive as original artwork.

Focus on lights

Diwali is all about lights! And since you can’t have many people inside your home, you can think of ways to decorate the outside of your home with lights. You can go the traditional route and pick diyas to display on your walls and windowsills. If this seems like too much work, you can buy serial lights for Diwali or Diwali strip lights/LED lights. These are easy to put up, consume very little electricity, won’t go out with the wind, and most importantly will not mess up your walls. For the inside of your home, you can even invest in chandeliers or new lights for your home.

Festive decorations

You can look at buying or making a lovely toran for your door. You get many readymade ones in the market that are made from plastic, paper and even cloth, but the ones that look best are the ones made from fresh leaves and flowers. The other must-have decoration is the rangoli. If you can’t draw neatly or just don’t have the time, you have rangoli stickers that you can paste on the floor. You can even make simple rangoli designs with flower petals and leaves.  

These are just a few ways in which you can give your home a festive makeoverThe festive season is a good opportunity to give your house a stunning makeover.
