how to declutter
Make use of ice cube trays and old muffin tins to organizer your smaller possessions. For example; such things as jewelry and paperclips, rubber bands, nuts and bolts can be easily organized within these types of cost efficient items.
They can also be used to sort and store craft supplies. You can hide them away in drawers and use them to keep your junk drawers organized. If you are so inclined, you can also use place them on desktops or shelves for easy access.

how to declutter
I’m always embarrassed because I seem to have clutter in the house. I have a 9 yr old daughter who’s into crafts, plush toys, etc. and they’re all over the apartment. Then I see people who have no clutter whatsoever and the house looks like a show home. Is it possible to have that type of environment when you have children? I feel like a failure in that aspect because as much as I try to organize or declutter, it just comes back to haunt me.

how to declutter
I live in a very fast-paced city and have a demanding, stressful schedule, and I have a really strong desire to spend a week of my winter break up alone at our lake house in the mountains just writing, painting, and chilling. I’ve been inspired by Walden Pond and want solitary time in nature to reflect. I would send them a text or email every day just to let them know I’m fine, but would spend the rest of the time without the internet or TV and just declutter my brain. The house is only like a three hour drive from my house, and I’m familiar with the route, but haven’t driven it before just because it’s slightly winding and they’re paranoid about me getting into an accident. I’d go up during the daylight before it gets snowy, and go to the store and get everything I need for the week, then not drive again. I wouldn’t have anyone over. The house has a high-tech alarm system so nobody could break in. I have a health condition, but I can manage it myself for a week, and one of our neighbors up there is a retired oncologist who knows us well, so if I truly needed help I could go to him. There are medical facilities up there. It’s close to a ski resort so they have all the things you’d need.
I’m 17, and will be 18 next spring. Do you think this is an unreasonable request? I mean, we have the house and it’s just sitting there empty so why not use it? How can I talk them into agreeing to this? I really need to go, so helpful answers would be appreciated.

hi all I have just had my house redecorated – it really needed it and I saved hard and now its lovely. however i now need to declutter and i cant do it.
I find it impossible to throw out nice stuff – even if its going to goodwill I feel I should hang on to it "just in case"
for instance i have over 40 pillowcases and 30 pairs of shoes and bags uncountable. please could you tell me the best way you found to get rid of stuff you no longer need. for instance i have a study full of books half of which i will read again – it would break my heart to give them away but with space needed – i have to be brutal. another for instance – i have lots of half used lipstick and makeup pencils should i just throw then away?
with two growing daughters (twins aged nearly 4) – i want to teach them how to be tidy and be able to get rid of stuff when they need to.
i suppose i am a hoarder at heart and i want to stop.
any ideas? thanks pals
sorry didnt mean to put this in to languages – yes i go to alot of garage sales over here we call them car boot sales – and i have double of everything – i have 4 pairs of half worn tennis shoes 4 black patent leather bags etc etc. i dont have loads of money and i wish i could declutter so i could see what i have and then buy to compliment what i have. we cant write stuff off on taxes here.one of the main questions i have is should i throw out 3 of the half used pairs of tennis shoes and all of the half used make-up – i have make-up going back 15 years – help. i tried that website and am getting hopeful and also less depairing that i am not alone thanks.

Oh you’re not a dork at all, I tihnk I am partly a clean freak who feels out of control My grandmother had a house like a museum, with art and her rooms were like works of art , I have no idea how she raised 3 kids that way. BUt I can’t be like that. I think object s just hold energy and I pick up on that energy.
