Elizabeth in Your Home - Reduced to Clear Organizing Tips

Take a large plastic sturdy garbage bag and large cardboard box. Go through each room of your home and throw away all garbage. Please help save the environment and reduce our landfills by recycling. Your goal is to fill those bags and boxes and get them out of your living space. Start with the room you spend the most time in. That way you’ll get results you can appreciate and inspiring you to continue. Off you go now!

Decide what items in each room need to be given to your favourite charity and then do so!

Identify items you wish to sell. If you know how to use a digital camera and can write a few sentences, then check out www.craigslist.org and click on your local area. It is really easy, but if you feel overwhelmed, Elizabeth can show you how. Consider having a yard sale if cameras are not your thing.

Storing items for others? Well, it’s time to have those people come and get it! If not, sell or donate.

Identify items you want to keep. While you are deciding, keep this in mind: anything not used for the past twelve months has to go. Ask yourself: Do I use this? How long has it been since I’ve used this? Will I use it again? Is it worth the space it takes up in my home?

"When things are stored in rooms where they don't belong and serves no purpose,
your stuff is controlling you."
