Vacuum carpets, clean the house, and put up decorations– that's the typical pre-holiday checklist. But what if there was something that could really go the extra mile in the prep department and knock your guests’ socks off? Oh wait, there is! Paint . If you’re wondering how and where to use interior paint this holiday season before guests arrive, you’ve come to the right place! High-Traffic Areas to Focus On Let's jump right in. When tackling a painting project before the busy holiday season, it’s good to think strategically about “where.” And high-traffic zones are a good starting point. Good candidates might include: The Living Room: This is often the center of holiday gatherings, and it’s where many guests will spend the majority of their time. A fresh coat of paint on the walls can instantly brighten the space and make it feel warm and welcoming. Hallways and Entryways: These areas set the tone for the rest of your home, offering the first impression when guests arrive. Hallways and entryways endure a lot of foot traffic too, leading to scuffs and general wear. Repainting these spaces will make your home look polished and inviting from the moment guests step through the door. Not to mention the extra protection a coat of paint provides for your walls! Guest Rooms and Bathrooms Don’t forget about the rooms your guests will use most—especially the guest bedroom and bathrooms. These spaces might not get as much attention throughout the year, but they play a huge role in making your guests feel welcome during the holidays. The Kitchen – A Hub for Holiday Fun
