10 QUICK Decluttering Tips
Follow these tips from master minimalist Shira Gill as you work on transforming your home into organized bliss.
• Group similar items together in categories so you can see the quantity and quality of the items you already have.
• Store each category in one specific designated home, rather than multiple places around the house.
• Store items you use frequently (such as coffee mugs or your toothbrush) in front-and-center shelves or drawers.
• What items do you often misplace? Create a clear and designated home for each one.
• Always edit and organize your space completely before shopping for storage containers.
• Never shop for storage solutions without a specific list, or you’ll come home with items you don’t know what to do with.
• Clear cluttered shelves and countertops for a streamlined look.
• Use a consistent style and color scheme to achieve a stylized look (even for items like closet hangers and storage bins).
• Don’t leave art or framed photos without a home. If they aren’t on the wall or on a designated shelf, get rid of them.
• Put things away, and in their assigned homes on a daily basis.
This will help you maintain your decluttered space.
