Leafing through a magazine while getting the car’s oil changed recently, I read some interesting tips. A few are worth sharing.
Set boundaries to control clutter.
- If you can, consider open storage. Closed cabinets and lidded boxes make it temptingly easy to stash new stuff.
- Limit collections, like craft supplies or memorabilia, to one drawer or bin. Once full, purge. If you can, resist the temptation to fill another bin.
- Unsure about how much you really use an item? Place a removable dot sticker on it, with the date. If not used for several months, it might be time to donate or give it away, as long as you’re not adding to someone else’s clutter.
