The clutter
Your kitchen countertops might seem just fine to you, even if they are packed with cereal boxes, vitamins, condiment jars, children’s drawings and whatnot. But to guests, all those things spread across the kitchen might spell chaos and disarray.
Messiness and uncleanliness can say a lot about one’s personality and even mental health. You don’t want guests to think of you as a disorganized and unreliable person. “Clutter takes up physical space, drains mental energy, and can cause stress and anxiety, so take a few minutes to declutter your kitchen before your guests arrive,” suggests Christina Giaquinto, professional organizer and brand ambassador of Modular Closets.
