Holiday Ready: A Clean Home, a Fresh Ride & Gifts They’ll Actually Use

The guests are coming. The shopping list is growing. And someone just asked if you can pick them up at the airport. Welcome to the holidays!

Before you panic-clean the house or shove everything in the car into the trunk, take a breath. A little preparation can get your home, car and gift stash ready—with time left for a cookie break.

Company’s Coming. Start Here.

Nobody’s checking your closets. (We hope.) Focus on the places guests will actually see: the kitchen, guest bathroom and gathering spaces.

Give the kitchen a holiday glow-up. Everyone ends up in the kitchen—even when you’ve carefully arranged snacks somewhere else. Tackle grease, splatters and fingerprints with JAWS Kitchen Cleaner, and let its cinnamon scent bring a little holiday cheer to the cleanup. A cleaner that smells right at home during cookie-baking season? Yes, please.

Keep an extra refill handy for the inevitable gravy spill or “helpful” little baker. Just add water, pop in a refill and put that reusable bottle back to work.

Make the bathroom company-ready. Clean the sink, toilet and mirror, then bring out fresh hand towels and refill the soap. JAWS Foaming Bathroom Cleaner helps tackle soap scum and everyday buildup. Finish with JAWS Glass Cleaner on the mirror—because toothpaste splatter isn’t a holiday decoration.

Do one last lap. Give coffee tables, entryways and everyday surfaces a quick pass with JAWS Multi-Purpose Cleaner. Touch up fingerprints on glass, clear a spot for coats and call it a win.

And with all those holiday guests coming and going, don't forget the high-touch surfaces! Door handles, light switches and other frequently touched areas can benefit from a little extra attention. JAWS Disinfectant kills 99.9% of viruses and bacteria when used as directed, making it a smart addition to your holiday cleaning routine.

Your home doesn’t need to look like a holiday catalog. It just needs room for your favorite people.

Give Your Holiday Sleigh a Refresh

Heading to Grandma’s? Picking up relatives? Your passengers would probably appreciate a seat that isn’t occupied by receipts and last week’s coffee cup.

Grab the trash, shake out the floor mats and meet GloveboxRx, our car-care partner using JAWS refill technology. Fill the reusable bottle with water, insert a concentrated refill cartridge and tighten the sprayer to release the concentrate. Each cartridge makes 16 ounces of product.

Their detailing starter kit includes four car-care essentials:

• Interior Cleaner: Tackles dirt and stains on surfaces such as fabric, leather, vinyl and plastic. Give those dashboards, door panels and seats a little attention before company climbs in.

• Glass Cleaner: An ammonia-free, streak-free formula for windows and mirrors that’s also suitable for tinted glass and display screens. Goodbye, fingerprints and nose art.

• Waterless Wash: Freshens up exterior surfaces without hauling out a hose and bucket. A handy way to get your ride ready for its holiday appearances.

• Spray Wax: Adds gloss and protection with an easy spray-on, wipe-off formula. Think of it as the finishing touch before your sleigh leaves the driveway.

Now there’s room for passengers, presents and the leftovers you’re definitely bringing home. Check out the entire GloveboxRx line here.

Keep a Few “Oh, This Is for You!” Gifts Handy

A last-minute party invitation. A neighbor with homemade cookies. A December birthday you almost forgot.

Keep a few useful gifts ready, and you’ll look impressively organized.

For the holiday host: Pair a cinnamon-scented JAWS Kitchen Cleaner Starter Kit with a microfiber towel and a festive bow. Or choose a JAWS variety kit for everyday messes throughout the year.  

For the car enthusiast, commuter or new driver: A GloveboxRx detailing kit brings together reusable bottles, refill cartridges and color-coordinated microfiber towels. It’s a practical gift with plenty of shine.

Just hand over the cleaning products with a warm “thought you’d love these”—and absolutely no commentary about their housekeeping.

Home ready. Car ready. Gifts ready. Now, where are those cookies?
