Aimed at those who struggle to make time in their lives for regular clear-outs, these decluttering tactics are short, sharp and in some cases, pretty intense. How far you take them is up to you, but the idea is to declutter every day for seven days in a bid to kickstart your decluttering journey.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed at the idea of a frantic week, know that 15 minutes a day might be enough, especially if everyone in the family participates. Picking a convenient time of day will also help you maintain momentum. if you have lots of energy in the mornings, perhaps decluttering after breakfast would work best for you, for example’, says professional organizer Linda Chu, founder of Out of Chaos.
How big your home is and how much ‘stuff’ you want to clear will dictate how much time a day you’ll need to commit to each day, so give this careful thought ahead of time and make arrangements accordingly.
