Simple and Easy Ways to Maintain a Clean Kitchen This Christmas

Christmas is the perfect time of year for bringing together loved ones, and whilst entertaining guests during this special time of year is rewarding in itself, trying to maintain a clean and orderly house is undoubtedly a challenge. For those who don’t want to spend all of the festive season with a sponge and antibacterial spray in hand, Cameo Glass have shared four simple and easy ways you can maintain a clean kitchen this Christmas:

Don't Ignore Spills

It is much easier to clean up spills and stains straight away as opposed to leaving them to be dealt with later on in the day, when they can become dried onto your surfaces and therefore more stubborn and difficult to remove, potentially even damaging your kitchen tops. Simply pick up your surface cleaner and a cloth and before you know it you have a clean kitchen once again. Our glass worktops are specially designed to make cleaning up spills even easier, as well as being extremely durable and hygienic for safe food preparation.

Wash up as You Go

Christmas, Boxing Day, and New Year all demand the use of lots of crockery, cutlery, tableware, glasses, and pans to name but a few. If you’re not careful and choose to ignore all of this dirty kitchen paraphernalia, you will soon feel overwhelmed by the amount of work ahead of you and find it difficult to maintain a clean kitchen. It is tempting just to leave everything and do it in one go, but this is a time consuming and extremely arduous task; instead, break cleaning down into manageable chunks by washing up pans and trays as soon as you have finished with them. Similarly, loading up the dishwasher between courses will ensure you have a clean set of tableware by the end of the meal. 

Set up a Cleaning Rota

Keeping a clean kitchen is a responsibility that should be shared amongst the whole family, therefore why not set up a rota to give everyone their own role? Whether this is washing and drying, wiping down surfaces, or putting away the kitchenware, a rota will not only ease the stress and burden on you, but will also give the children something to tick off their list of chores. Play some festive music whilst you work and you’ll be done before you know it.

Install Cooker Splashbacks

Christmas is a time for feasting, though unfortunately this great banquet of food doesn’t come without extensive preparation and cooking. It’s not always easy to keep a constant eye on your hob, especially with several pans on the go, therefore it’s a great idea to install cooker splashbacks to shield your kitchen walls from the inevitable splatter of sauces. Why not take a look at our fantastic range of kitchen splashbacks which are completely bespoke, customisable, help maintain a clean kitchen, and look great in your home.
