It’s always a challenge scrubbing stains from a carpet. We’re talking wine spill, juice of food it is a nightmare. To avoid all that, remove the carpet prior to hosting any gathering or substitute it with an easy to wash rug.
Close your bedrooms
What’s the worst that could happen? Sticky fingers are the least of your worries. You’re more likely to find a guest passed out in your bedroom or getting busy with another. And unless you’re for that kinda thing, lock your doors.
Invite people you know
Parties come to gate crashers, so it’s not always as simple as inviting the people you know. Some friends, even after they RSVP, come with a tag along without notice. Inform guests beforehand that you are not comfortable with people you are not familiar with.
Use paper cups, plates, and cutlery
Disposable cups, plates, and cutlery are perfect because they do not require much. Cleaning after a party is quite taxing, but with these, your job is halfway done. They also come in handy as you don’t stress about breakages. You can also use them to complement your theme.
Store all your fragile and valuable items in a safe place
Locking up fragile items is essential. These are items that are breakable, expensive or irreplaceable. You can designate one room or drawer and lock them in until the party is over.
Alert your neighbors
Unless you live on a desert island, most residences have rules and regulations. You have to respect your neighbors. If you want to avoid your party being cut short, inform your neighbors you’ll be holding a gathering and that things may get a bit rowdy.
