Simplify Your Space (Decluttering Series)
Mar 21st 2008Amy Jo HinesOrganization & Simplicity
Spring is coming!
It’s a great time to get rid of excess “stuff” and simplify your life. Why?
- Spring Cleaning. This time of year many people air-out and clean their homes and offices.
- Preparations for summer. Its also time to put winter clothes and sporting gear away so you can get your warm weather items out.
- Moving. Many moves are scheduled for summer, with warmer weather, better roads and avoiding interruptions with in the school year.
- You can’t find ANYTHING. Its a beautiful day to walk the dog, but you have misplaced your keys, the dog leash or your walking shoes (again) and waste 30 minutes searching.
Right now is a great time to get rid of the clutter in your life.
The series so far:
Some helpful websites for decluttering your space:
- FlyLady is a great resource for getting rid of clutter and establishing routines to prevent chaos from taking over your home or office again.
- Unclutterer is a blog on uncluttering your home, office, computer and life.
- Organized Home has articles and printable organizers for your home.
I also recommend the book Organizing From the Inside Out, I find Julie’s “Kindergarten Model of Organization” to exactly fill my needs.
