A cleaning professional has revealed the simple steps you can take to keep your home looking tidy when you’re in a hurry.
While we all want our spaces to look good, most of us don’t have the time to deep clean.

Organizational expert and do-it-yourselfer Caroline Solomon (@neat.caroline) shared her method of making a clean home in a TikTok.
It’s a great hack for when you’re short on time.
THE LIVING ROOM
The living room is the first thing you and your guests see when they walk in, so it’s important that it feels inviting.
A messy couch never looks good.
“Loose your pillows,” Caroline advised, as karate chopped them into shape.
As for the coffee table, remove the stains and fingerprints from the surface with all-purpose cleaner.
“Put your coffee table books straight,” she added.
THE KITCHEN
Caroline then moved on to the most used – and often the dirtiest – room in the house: the kitchen.
To change the greasy look of your oven door, spray equal parts water and vinegar onto the surface and rub with a microfiber cloth.
She said it’s a “bonus” if you change your tea towels too so fresh clean towels are on the rack.
BATHROOMS
Then she tackled the room most people dread cleaning: the bathroom.
“Wipe mirrors with vinegar and water,” she said.
Make sure to also straighten out your towels so they don’t look so messy.
BEDROOM
And finally, Caroline finished the bedroom.
For starters, no room will look tidy with an untidy bed, so try to make that up as soon as possible.
And all those clothes lying on the floor? It’s time to just throw them in the basket. Out of sight out of mind.
