If you've got guests on the way and you want to make the house smell better quickly, consider one of these handy tips from Diva Spot:

• Bake bread -- the house will smell delicious all day!
• Simmer cinnamon sticks with apple slices, or orange peels in water on the stove
• Burn scented candles
• Febreeze
• Burn incense
• Put out bowls with sponges that have vanilla extract on them
• Open the windows and let the fresh air in
• Sprinkle carpet deodorizer on your carpets, leave, then vacuum
• Dried eucalyptus in arrangements smells great
• Use plug-in fresheners in hidden locations
• Spray your favorite perfume on an unlit lightbulb - the heat will warm up the scent and make the room smell great
• Put out dishes of dried rosemary and lavender, or in sachets in closets or drawers
• Use a product like Fridge-it to capture unwanted odors
