Organize Photos

Most phones today completely replace cameras, so it’s no wonder we have hundreds or even thousands of photos in them at any given moment. If you take some time to organize them into separate albums and delete the bad ones or the repetitive ones, you’re more likely to actually look back to all the amazing memories you’ve created.

Purge Contacts

There’s no reason to keep some old numbers in your contact list if you know you will never need them again. Whether it’s your ex or your favorite delivery place from a city you no longer live in, they aren’t meant to be on your phone anymore.

App Organization

There are some apps that you use on a daily basis and you can move those to the home screen. The others can be put in folders that make sense to you. Delete the apps you never use and don’t let them clutter the precious space.

Ditch Open Space

Instead of having open spaces like open shelving and open television units, store your basic, non-personal items in boxes. That way you won’t have to look at items like tape and light bulbs on a daily basis.

Group Things in Defined Spaces

We all have more random junk than we know what do with, so store them on tabletop trays so their placement looks intentional. You can place your keys, jewelry, candles, and makeup on trays that will be displayed around your house.

Have Lots of Light

Light helps create the illusion of bigger spaces and will make even the smallest areas look bigger. It seems counterproductive to add more light to a room that’s cluttered, but you’ll be surprised at how good lighting can open the room up.

Store Away Wires and Plugs

Exposed wires and plugs make any room look messy. When possible try and store wires behind sofas or television units or under rugs.

Get Rid of Items

Probably the easiest way to reduce clutter is to get rid of items that you don’t use and keeping items that are useful.

Mail

People often put their mail in the kitchen and if you’re among them, you know how fast it can pile up. What you need is an organization system or at least a different place of it, like a desk.

Utensils

Make it a habit to put the utensils back in the drawers when you’re done with them and your kitchen will look much tidier at all times.

Spices

The same goes for spices. They should be in the pantry, away from your eyes, as we’re sure you’re not reaching for them several times every day.

Cookbooks

Cookbooks shouldn’t stand on the countertop; instead, put them on a dedicated shelf somewhere in the kitchen so they’re always within reach without cluttering the space.

Decor Items

We get that you’d like to display that beautiful bowl or vase, but the countertop is not the place to do that. Move it to the top of the cabinets or to an open shelf.

Paperwork

Incoming letters and paper are often the cause of clutter. If you are guilty of putting paper all over the house, designate a spot where it will go. When you have time, go through and chuck out the mail that you no longer need.

Surface Cleaning

Leaving surfaces clear will brighten up the environment. Whether it’s kitchen sides or a coffee table, make sure that all your belongings have a place, so you can keep your surfaces clear. If you do not know where to put it, question whether you really need it. 

Visualize the Potential

Starting decluttering may seem like an endless task, but you need to think of what the result will be at the end. Try going into the chosen room and imagine what it would look like with less stuff.

Instant Removal

If you succeed in making the time to declutter, make sure you factor in getting rid of the items. Whether recycling or giving to charity, make sure your items reach their new destination. Don’t let stuff build up in the back of your car or corner of the room.

Seasonal Wardrobe

Create some space in your wardrobe by separating seasonal clothes. In winter, pack your summer clothes away. If you haven’t worn something for a while, you don’t need it. Be ruthless and get rid of it.
