Clear Household Clutter | 7 Things You Need to De-Clutter


Hi #simplelifesociety, I hope you’re ready for more home organization, because we are just getting started. Yes, I am calling you out on 7 things around your house you can de-clutter! These tasks range from small to large, so you can pick and choose where to start and what projects you need done. Since we’re home, why not?

In one of my popular videos, I demonstrate 7 things you need to de-clutter:

  1. Wardrobe and Accessories Clothing, shoes and jewelry Out of season clothing Find items to donate See Closet Clean-out and Organization

  2. Paper Clutter Receipts, important documents, kid’s schoolwork, junk mail Create a sorting system

  3. Desktop and Drawers Create a functional desktop De-clutter drawers of work paper, electronics, stationary, etc. See Working From Home Styling and Storage

  4. Cosmetics (incl. makeup, skincare, toiletries) Get rid of expired cosmetics and products Make a pile you can donate Organize what you keep into categories

  5. Photos and Keepsakes Go through photos, cards, paper keepsakes Gather what you want to keep and organize into an album or photo/memory box

  6. Wallet Remove old membership cards (some can be replaced by phone apps) File or toss receipts Write balances on gift cards

  7. Recyclables Recycle excess paper and plastic bags (start fresh!) Keep only reusable bags and totes that are in good condition Organize bags neatly and limit the amount you keep in the future Remember* Don’t overwhelm yourself! If you tackle too big of a project and expect it to be done in a day, you’ll be discouraged. Take it one step at a time, and prioritize what you need done first. Suggested Materials
