Create an “Emergency Clean Up Kit” For Party Mishaps

During this time of year, many of us have guests over for parties. Spills and other mishaps happen, and you don't want accidents to ruin the party. Create an "emergency kit" before the party starts so you can fix the problem at a moment's notice.

Apartment Therapy created a short list of things to have in a ready-to-go basket or caddy, including a sponge, small broom, countertop cleaner, salt, stain stick, and a few other miscellaneous items.

We recommend adding a few other things, depending on the type of stains you expect. Stain Solutions will tell you how to get out any stain and this infographic helps with holiday stains, so check that out for ideas for items to add to the kit. I'd suggest vinegar and baking soda as a good starting point.

If you're an accident-prone guest, keeping a kit like this in the car might make your host rest a bit easier, too. Hit the link for their full checklist.
