Home Organization Tips to Declutter and Simplify


The first step that has to be done when considering a new year home refresh is to clean and declutter. Disorganization often leads to chaotic feeling whereas organization of a space gives a sense of calmness.


  1. Start Small: Instead of decluttering the whole house, it is recommended that one starts with a single room or even a single drawer.
  2. Declutter Method: When sorting items, one should use the keep, donate and toss method. When it comes to saving and organizing, the general rule is that if something has not been used in the last year, dispose of it.
  3. Smart Storage Solutions: Buy storage bins, baskets and organizers that can be easily fit in your storage space. It’s perfect for storing small items that people use frequently and that otherwise would just clutter up the place.

Organizing your home also creates a fresh environment that helps free the house from clutter and prepare the home for the year.


New Year Decluttering Ideas to Lighten Your Space


Organizing is much more than just getting rid of things, it is about designing spaces that work for people. Here are some effective new year decluttering ideas:


  1. The 12-Month Rule: If you have not used an item for one year, it is time to throw it away or else sell it.
  2. Digitize Paper Clutter: Scan documents, bills and notes which will help in avoiding many piles of papers. This will also facilitate organization in the future.
  3. Declutter Sentimental Items: Only keep the meaningful essentials and make sure to display or store them in creative ways such as photo albums. 

It is enlightening, revitalising and a fresh start for your home and everyone can productively focus without distractions.
