Sometimes in your storage boxes, sometimes in closets and sometimes in your kitchen cabinets; You often find yourself making space for things! Have you ever wondered how you don’t have much stuff but still don’t have enough space for your belongings? That’s because you have a cluttered home. There’s so much space, but you still fall short of it just because it’s not organized. You certainly need to adorn your house a little and declutter it to make it look neat and make room for other things. In case you need some guidance on how to clear the decks, we’ve got you covered. Dig into a few tips given below to get started.
Closet
Whether it’s “I don’t have anything to wear” or “I don’t have enough space for my new clothes”, it all starts with you piling up stuff on top of the one other. As much as you think it's difficult to clean your wardrobes, it isn’t if you move on step by step. First of all, go through your clothing and sort it out in bottoms, tops, dresses, winter wear and more. Let go of pieces that are worn out or those that you don’t fit in. Make a basket for dirty laundry to not to stuff it up in your cupboard again. Those pieces that don’t want anymore can be donated to needy ones as well.
Kitchen
Kitchens definitely need to be clutter-free if you want to enjoy the art of cooking. There are so many different types of things in there, including pots & pans, cutlery, drinkware, bakeware, cutting boards and more. Begin with the upper cabinets, empty them out, sort each item, throw away useless or broken items, and then put everything back in place. Keep the countertop for the end to not mess it up amid the cleaning.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are the easiest to tidy up if you don’t keep much stuff in there. Check out your cabinets, and throw all the empty bottles and medicines in the trash. Now, sort through the drawers and remove all that’s inside. Keep all the items that you use and toss those in the bin that are rusted or spoiled in any other way. Place a basket in your restroom if there isn’t one to dump all the soiled linen in it instead of hanging them around.
Bedroom
There’s a lot to go through in your bedroom. You can start with your side tables and sideline everything that doesn’t belong there. If there are any books you’ve read, extra stationery, used papers and anything else, get them out of there. Then move on to your chest of drawers if there’s any or your dresser. Now, you would have to go through all your makeup to see what is usable, expired, and nothing but an empty bottle. Arrange everything and put it all back organized.
Living
room
Living rooms are used a lot, and so it gets messy every day. It's hard to keep them neat, but it isn’t impossible. Begin by cleaning it up bit by bit. Move to your bookshelf if you have it, and sift through your books to split those that you can donate. Apart from this, you need to keep an eye on the magazines, remote controls, and other small things that get stockpiled. Put everything where they’re supposed to be and arrange it every day to not let it get piled up!
