Cut Back on Clutter
Make a resolution to make purging part of your list of home to-dos. Find a time period that works for you. Whether its every month or every year and vow to cycle through the things in you home and purge it of unnecessary things. If it isn’t useful, loved. Or needed by you and your family; then donate it, sell it, or (if there are no other viable options) throw it away. Too much clutter makes a house seem dirty and bare, according to experts. So, give it a breath of fresh air by clearing counters, emptying drawers, and reducing excess. The next step is to mindfully and carefully choose what you bring in to your home and makes sure it has value and a place in your home to avoid the constant cycle of accumulating more and more.
Reorganize and Optimize Your Home Space
Play around with the furniture in each room. Rearrange it and give the space a fresh look with a few simple changes. Optimize the space you have and create a comfortable, inviting, and open space that works well both in form and function no matter what room of the house you are working in. You will be amazed at how just a few minor adjustments in a room can make a major improvement to the look and feel of you home. You can reassign items to where they make more sense and where they best fit. You might find a piece of furniture that you have in a one room works better in another. Be flexible and explore your options and do not forget to have fun with it!
