Cluttering starts with not letting old and useless articles and items go.
Most of these articles are worthless, but some people can’t just let their
garbage go. This is how gradually the house becomes cluttered with unused items.
Below are some helpful tips on how to de-clutter your home.
Change your mind-set – allow old and worthless articles to go. You don’t
have to keep everything; if you consider the items important, you could give it
away to charity or to someone else that needs them.
Work on each room one after the other. Empty the room – remove all the
items in the room as if you are about to move out.
Return only the most important items into the room. For a living room,
the most important items will include the TV, stereo, sofa, throw pillows,
couch, chairs etc. After doing this, you will realise which of the other items
could be categorised as clutter.
Locate where all the important things should be placed in the room. Then
begin to put the items in position in such a way that there is free movement
around the room.
Layer the room. Select a few accessories and decorate the room. The items
could include your paintings, pictures, a flower vase, rugs, lamps etc. Take
note of how the room is being gradually transformed. You do not have to use all
your collection of accessories at once. You can keep the rest in a store while
you change them seasonally or from time to time.
Avoid cluttering the room again. After sorting all the items, you could
keep the useful ones in a store, the broken and useless ones, close your eyes
and throw them away. Also you could give items away to charity or put them up
for sale.
