3.     Make room
When hosting a lot of people around the holidays, we all seem to ask ourselves the same question. Can we accommodate all these people? What if someone brings a plus one? Will there be any need for more seating?
Examine all the furniture and bulky items around the house. What are the items that you haven’t used all year or that you can do without over the holiday season? Super Storage, Stoke on Trent, is an intelligent way to store your belongings around the holiday season. You can store certain belongings that take up too much room and would be a hindrance to the party planning. You can also store items that are valuable and or fragile that you do not feel comfortable leaving around the house.
The idea is to remove clutter and free up space for guests to move around and enjoy. You do not want to spend the entire night worrying and this is why we have temporary storage.
It is likely that when planning a dinner party, you already considered using the fancy cutlery you have lying around for special occasions. As this is a special occasion you can free up a significant amount of space by transferring the everyday china to a self storage facility near you.
4.     Details.
A few final touches to keep in mind are adding clean hand-towels and fresh smelling hand-soap to all the bathrooms. Dust off bookshelves and arrange fresh flowers around the house. Play some festive music and do not forget to light up some scented candles.
