Ramadan 2024: 3 simple budget-friendly tips to decorate your house
To begin this spring cleaning task, make a checklist of the big items you will need to take on.
Whether it is Diwali, Chinese New Year or Hari Raya, the one main duty most households share is decluttering their homes. With Ramadan expected to end and the celebratory days of Eid al-Fitr to begin on 10 April 2024, it is advisable to give ourselves time to clean, as it will save you from struggling with cleaning and fasting at the same time.
To begin this spring cleaning task, make a checklist of the big items you will need to take on: washing curtains, bedsheets, cushion covers, tablecloths and carpets you intend to use on Hari Raya.
Air out pillows, carpets and small furniture - items that will be hard to move around the house.
When the fasting period starts, Muslim friends have shared with me their struggles of waking up at pre-dawn for an entire month to perform prayers and to read the Quran. Here's a tip: we think a plug-in night lamp can actually create soft light for your reading and it doesn't cost much.
Preparing your household in advance will automatically create a homey and comfortable environment as you welcome the blessed month of Ramadan, and it shouldn't bust your budget with planning.
