Go through this drawer and throw out what you don’t need. The one that is the catch-all for everything. We all have that terrible junk drawer in our kitchen. Sometimes having someone who is not attached to the items can make it easier to get rid of stuff. If you are too attached to your things and having a hard time putting items in the donate or throw away bin have a friend help. Take a before and after photo so you can look back at all the hard work you did. Check out these easy Dollar Tree Organization Hacks and head there before you start decluttering. You’ll be amazed at how much you can get for $1. I also love to save money on storage bins shopping at Dollar Tree. I like to use clear storage bins with tops so I can stack things but still see what’s inside. Your space is reorganized and you can move onto the next room. I find if I put the items I keep back right away I feel like I have accomplished the task. Have storage bins and shelves ready to reorganize the items your keeping. Try your best to keep your emotions out of it to help you “let go” of more items.

If the answer is no then it goes in the donate or throw-out outbox. Tip: When deciding if you’re going to keep an item think about if you have used it in the last 6 months and if you will miss the item when it’s gone. When you’re done dividing things up reorganize only what is left in the keep box. This will speed things up as you go and give you a spot to categorize each item. The decision of what to get rid of is the hardest part of decluttering.Īs you go through the rooms, drawers & closets have a bin for keep, donate, and throw out.
