Do you feel overwhelmed at the clutter in your home?
Do you feel hopeless and not sure where to start?
Are you embarrassed when friends or family come to your home?
Don’t worry, we’ve all been there at some stage too.
Here’s some tips on how to start decluttering:
- Allocate yourself about one hour
- Don’t pull too much stuff out that you can’t put back in that hour
- Start with a small corner
- Sort into three piles: ‘Stuff to Keep’, ‘Stuff to Throw’, ‘Stuff to Give’
- ‘Stuff to Keep’: put it away when you’ve finished – find a home for it
- ‘Stuff to Throw’: if you don’t like, love or use it – throw it in the garbage
- ‘Stuff to Give’: give it to somebody or a charity that can use it
- Finish off that one corner and another day pick another section
- Give yourself a pat on your back
- Grab a cuppa
Give it a go…..what have you got to loose?
