Organizational Overhaul

The first month of a new year is a great opportunity for a fresh start! Create goals for yourself, including setting time aside to declutter your home.

Not only will it make you feel better, but you’ll also find it more enjoyable to live in your home. If you’re unsure where to start, we have just a few ideas for you.

Kitchen Pantry

Declutter and organize this area for a more efficient experience. Toss out expired food and spices. Also, if there are foods you are certain you will never eat, donate them to a local food pantry. Arrange your pantry in a way that suits your cooking habits and needs, i.e., buy storage bins to categorize snacks, pastas, canned goods, etc.

‍Medicine Cabinet

Streamline your medicine cabinets by removing unused skin care items, expired medications, and items you simply do not like. Empty the cabinet entirely and clean the shelves before placing the remaining items. Organize each shelf with a purpose.

‍Junk Drawer

Transform the junk drawer into a more purposeful space. Empty the drawer and sort through the odds and ends. Get rid of what you don’t need and find a proper storage place for what is worth keeping. Once cleared out, repurpose the drawer with items such as office supplies or tools.

‍Home Office

Get your files in order by slimming down the number of paper stacks you have lying around and finding a more organized system. Choose to scan important documents onto your computer and opt to go paperless. For documents no longer needed, shred or recycle them. Use folders or digital filing systems as helpful tools.

Each of these decluttering tasks can be broken down into smaller goals. These habits will make you feel refreshed and motivated, which will lead to a more stress-free lifestyle!
