While we count the days left until Christmas, it looks like a surprise was waiting for me in House Flipper with a job right in the spirit of holidays, how cool is that? 🎄
I know that there might be people who don't feel the happiest when the holidays are coming, because sometimes I get the same feeling just because I see one more year passing without realizing too many things in my life, but it's really nice to see a game being optimised in the way of those periods of the year, and I absolutely loved seeing snow for the first time in House Flipper!
Anyway, let's start with the beginning!
So I got this email from miss Arni Bell who got in trouble when she found out that her parents are going to be back home after one month spent in a delegation. It looks like someone had a lot of fun and parties in the absence of her parents! 😅
The house of Miss Arni Bell
There's no doubt that she's going to have a lot of memories from these parties, but until then, I am supposed to help her clean everything and decorate the house more Christmassy like, which is a completely new thing for the game and I can't wait for that!
BEFORE cleaning
If for a moment you thought the girl is maybe exaggerating about the mess left from parties, now I'm sure you have a completely new perspective over everything, lol.
Well... at least there are just some wine stains and footprints on the ground rather than spiderwebs and cockroaches, right?
AFTER cleaning
After I cleaned everything, I decided to start decorating the corridor before taking care of the rest of the rooms, so there we go! - a small Christmas wreath above the main door and a little mistletoe bouquet for a better year.
I have no idea if this is something common in the whole world or if there is just the Europeans, but we are used to having a mistletoe bouquet hang somewhere in the house around the Christmas holidays and New Year Eve that is considered the symbol of spiritual purity, freedom and harmony.
There are all kind of sayings about this tradition, but the most popular one is about the couples in love that if they are kissing under the mistletoe it means that they will have a long and happy relationship.
BEFORE cleaning
Anyway, back to our little job helping out Miss Arni.
The next part of the house I took care of, was the living room that it's open space with the kitchen and which was almost entirely covered in dirt, pizza boxes and leftovers, and all kinds of bottles.
What a crazy party this girl had!
AFTER cleaning
Everything looks better now, right?
At least we are able to see the colour of the sofa and floor, lol. 😂
However, as you might have already noticed on the blue list from the right of the images under the map, there are quite a few requirements in terms of what we should add as decorations for the house.
Of course I couldn't start in a different way other than purchasing a Christmas tree first!
Though, as having a Christmas tree is not enough to have a house fully decorated, there were needed to be added lots of lights, presents, bells and garlands for a proper Christmas Upgrade!

... and, done!
Now everything looks closer to the Christmas vibes.
Since the living room and kitchen are open space, I decided to focus with the decorations more on the living part and keep the kitchen quite minimalistic by adding just two bells on the wall, a nutcracker on the window sill and a poinsettia on the table which is always a great gift during the winter holidays.

Though, we are far from saying that the job is over because the house have a few more rooms that need to be cleaned and redecorated.
The first door I opened led me to the bathroom where I finished everything pretty fast being just a few stains on the ground and no need for any Christmas decorations on here.
BEFORE cleaning
The next room was also a little bit more innocent in terms of the cleaning that needed to be done, but over here I had the pleasure to spend some time finding the right decorations and bringing a few more colours and lights to this one.
I started by cleaning the floor, making the bed and then purchasing the rest of the elements from the list where I added a few more picked by me to make everything look perfect.

The next door opened led me to the garage of the house which most likely there was no need for Christmas decorations while they were also missing from the list, but after cleaning the dirt from the floor I thought that I could add a poster and some lights to the wall which seemed pretty empty. 😃

And last but not least, there was one more room which I will assume it's of Miss Arni Bell due to the extra pizza boxes, soda cans and bottles found that were missing in the other room.
I guess someone enjoyed some Netflix and chill here, lol.
BEFORE cleaning
I started by firstly getting rid of the trash and empty boxes, then I cleaned the floor and I ended everything by making the bed in this room as well.
There were only 3 decorations required to be purchased for this room, but you know me how much I love having colours, lights and Christmas decorations everywhere, so... here we go!
AFTER cleaning
I absolutely love how the furniture was chosen for this room, as well as the white floor and the spotlights from the ceiling!
Job done!
It's true that there is not a bunch of money earned but it's still easy money made with not too much effort.
In plus, it was my pleasure to decorate the whole room and get it ready for the Christmas Holidays, which is also something that I love doing in real life too.
Let the holidays begin! Less than 3 weeks left! 😍
