Crack, shatter, damn! Alas, small breaks do happen and even the most lovely ornaments, light bulbs, and even glasses are prone to breaking. So if you find yourself among a broken item and a lot of warm bodies this holiday season, here’s how to quickly clean up the mess without interrupting the party!

Sweep First
Sweep up any larger pieces, being careful not to cut yourself. Place the glass from the dustpan into a wet paper towel (this sticks to the glass more and is easier to bundle up), and then place in a plastic bag.
Lint Roller FTW
For the finer bits, grab your lint-roller and brush the area where the breakage happened to pick up any tiny shards that could result in a hospital bed with stitches! A quick roll and you’ll see all the little pieces that come up, and then you can easily peel off a sheet and throw it away.
I know it’s obvious, but it’s good to have a little refresher on broken ornament cleanup because I’m almost 100% certain that you’ll experience at least one broken something-or-other this holiday season—and now the solution is top-of-mind!
