Hosting is hard work, especially during the holidays. Here are four tips for tackling the stress of holiday entertaining prep and cleaning so you can focus on what matters during this time of year... time spent with loved ones. Tip #1: Manage your guest count. Always start by sending out invites. Your loved ones' holiday calendars can fill up fast. Get your guests excited for your holiday gathering ahead of time, giving everyone, including yourself, enough time to come up with crowd-pleasing holiday dishes. Tip #2: Prepare what you can in advance. Create a beautiful tablescape and set it up the night before. Finish Jet-Dry Rinse Aid is a must-have when setting up the table. It's a dishwasher additive that helps to prevent residues and dries dishes and glassware (even hard-to-dry plastics). It prevents spots, removes streaks, and defends against cloudiness on your dishes. Your dishwasher was designed to use rinse aids like Finish Jet-Dry to make things easy, so try it for a practically spotless shine this holiday season. Tip #3: Ask for help. Whether it's having guests bring their favorite drinks and desserts or providing an extra set of hands, ask for help to get through the night with ease. Tip #4: Make cleanup a breeze. Try Finish Ultimate Dishwashing Detergent to cut down on cleanup time. With Finish Ultimate, you don't need to worry.
