It can be hard to let go of the sweater your mom gave you, or for me, it’s hard to let go of kids’ clothes.If things aren’t serving a valid purpose in your home, they need to go! I think this tip is really hard for people. Seriously, keep only what you love! I think it’s okay to keep your favorite teddy bear from your childhood, just don’t keep them all, okay? There’s no point in hanging on to items just because. The majority of the toys sadly went into the toss pile. Anything broken, missing pieces, or anything that had not been played with in a few months was gone. I got pretty ruthless with decluttering the toys. The first thing I did was go through all of the toys. If I had an entire day to declutter, I probably wouldn’t have finished there was just so much. It had literally been almost a year since I did any decluttering in that space. Over the past two weeks I have been working on decluttering my boys’ room. So, what would this look like for one room? Let me give you an example. The next time you’re out, the stuff is there for you to drop off at the donation center. Take the donate pile and put it in the car. When you are done, immediately throw away the toss pile. Pull everything out of that cabinet and take a good, long look at it all. I think it is imperative to make sure that while you are decluttering that you really focus. It can be a lot of work, but having one whole room done is so rewarding! I will toss bowls that are old and yucky, or I will rehome or toss bowls that don’t have lids.Įvery time you need to declutter, keep going back to that one room you are working on and declutter something else until the whole room is done.
In the next chunk of time you have, why not tackle one of your kitchen cabinets? I often have to go through my storage bowl cabinet. Say you spend 20 minutes decluttering your junk drawer. Divide Your Home into Sectionsĭon’t declutter one kitchen cabinet, one bathroom cabinet, and half of your closet. Here are some tips to help you decide which room to declutter first. My biggest tip is to pick one room and just get started. It’s easy to become overwhelmed when you first start decluttering. I accomplished a lot on that one space in half an hour and I felt good because I did it! Which room should I declutter first? I threw away all the things that were either trash or pointless to keep and then I reorganized what was left. The baby was napping and I figured I could use her naptime to clear out that drawer and reorganize it. In that case, I will choose one small area that I can quickly handle and do a mini decluttering session.įor example, yesterday I noticed that the “junk” drawer in my kitchen was overflowing. Sometimes I need to focus on decluttering and I know that I only have 20 minutes. I love the way she says, “reevealute every item in your home, –every book, game, sweater, serving platter, blanket, and lipstick that you own.”
I’m currently working my way through the Your Simple Home Handbook by Elsie Callender. Set aside time when someone else is helping you with the kids and then get ruthless.
