Set Up a Systemĭecluttering will be much easier if you have a system in place for how to deal with the clutter. If you know it’s going to be a larger, more time intensive project, schedule it in on a day that you can dedicated an hour or two to that project. So instead of trying to tackled everything all at once, I recommend setting aside anywhere from 15-30 minutes each day to declutter. (There is no way my two little hooligans would let this mama spend an entire weekend decluttering! :)) But if you’re anything like me, there is no way you can dedicated an entire weekend of uninterrupted time to declutter. If you have time to set aside a weekend or two to get the bulk of it done, that’s great. Once you’ve done your initial sweep, created your plan, and tackled your worst space, it’s time to schedule your decluttering into your everyday life.

What are the spaces you dread going to? Is there a closet that you avoid because it’s so overwhelming? Maybe it’s an overly full laundry room? (I’m raising my hand on this one!) Or maybe your kitchen cabinets are busting at the seems? Create a simple list of the 10 spaces you want to declutter the most. Write down your top 10 spaces in your home you need to declutter. Remember, this is just to sweep the surface to help give you a quick boost of energy and motivation. If you have to put down the basket to sort through things, then you are going too deep into sorting mode. Toss in decor you no longer love, anything that is broken or damaged beyond repair, and papers you no longer need that can be recycled. Depending on the size of your house, this should probably take you anywhere from 10-30 minutes. This is not the time to clean out drawers or dig in the back of closets.
This is a visual sweep of your entire house. It might belong in the trash or it might be something you can sell or donate. Grab a laundry basket and throw in anything that doesn’t belong in your home anymore. You just have to jump in a get started!

If you are overwhelmed by clutter, just know that there is a light at the end of what seems like a very dark tunnel.

The reality is that you will never have an organized home if you don’t first declutter. And it can go from a small problem to a major epidemic overnight if we aren’t diligent about purging. Do you feel consumed by clutter? Do you feel like you have so much to go through that you don’t know where to begin? It’s easy for clutter to creep into our homes.
