As we usher in the new year, it’s time to contemplate once again on our personal resolutions for 2019. Apart from trying out a new health regimen or looking for ways to be more financially secure, why don’t you also try clearing up your home? You can even make this goal a family project to make things a tad easier.
Here are some of the things you can do to start the upcoming year with less mess.
1. Select your must-haves
Sort through your clothes and pile them into three categories: essential, seasonal and dispensable. You can also do this with your utensils, shoes and other things that pile up. If you can’t decide where to put a particular item, try it on or use it once to help you think.
2. Throw away expired goods
Go through your fridge and throw away items past the expiry date. You’ll be surprised how much space you’ll free up by getting rid of items you can’t really use anymore.
3. Eliminate duplicates
While it might seem a good idea to have 10 hairbrushes at your vanity desk, why don’t you select just a few key pieces to keep on the table? You can put these away for later use.
4. Sell, donate and discard items
5. Start recycling
6. Assign chores
7. Shop wisely
8. Add storage
9. Budget for home improvements
10. Maintain the routine
