5 super simple ways to declutter your home
Do a walk-through of your house with a trash bag in hand
Place anything and everything that you don’t need anymore is broken, or isn’t nice enough to donate or sell into the trash bag. Get rid of everything you don’t need or use – all this stuff is just taking up space and causing your house to look cluttered.
Start off small, if you’re overwhelmed
Do room by room. Space by space. You don’t have to clean your entire home at once. Start off with one room and move on to the next!
Start with areas you can see first
What’s the point of cleaning your closet if your bedroom is a mess? Start with areas you can see first and then work on the hidden areas.
Get rid of the duplicates.
You don’t need them, and they’re just taking up space! Get rid of clothes that are the same, nail polish that’s the same color (points at you!), items that serve the same purpose (like multiple house shoes).
Have an ongoing donation box in your closet.
Any time you come across something you don’t like, doesn’t fit, you’re just ready to let go of, etc. put it straight in your donation box. When the box gets full, drop it off at your local Goodwill®! The easier you make it to get rid of the clothes, the more likely you will follow through and clear the clutter from your closet!
