Decluttering: 5 Ideas Into a Simple Life at Home

​Decluttering can help people to gain a more simple life. It means that a person should own a few possessions. It is hard to let go of some things, but it has a lot of benefits. The person will have less to clean and organize and less stress. That’s why there are five creative ideas in decluttering that can help you along.

1. Choose One Item to Give Each Day
   Giving up one item each day for a year is equivalent to 365 items. It means that a person can let go of 365 items from your home. Once a person gets used to it, they can increase the number of things they can give to other people.
   
   
2. Donate Clothes
   Identify the clothes you always wear. Hang the clothes in a reverse direction. After wearing the clothes, face them in the correct order. Now, the person will know what clothes they never wear. They can discard the clothes and donate them to the places that accept clothes.
   
   
3. Decluttering Checklist
   A person should list all the things he/she needs. It is easier to identify the things a person doesn’t need, and he/she can donate or discard them.
   
   
4. Do the 12-12-12 Challenge
   It is an easy challenge. The person needs to get 12 items to donate, throw away, and return to the exact place they should be.
   
   
5. The Four-Box Method
   In each room at your home, place four boxes. Label the boxes trash, keep, re-locate and give away. Do not skip any item. It will take days, weeks, and possibly months, but it will help one recognize how many things you own. You will know what to do with the items and find meaning from them.

Conclusion
“Discard everything that does not spark joy.” Once your home is refreshing to one’s eyes, it will bring peace. Decluttering things that have sentimental meaning is problematic. But if it is not giving anyone peace and joy, let go of it. There is a beautiful meaning for having a fresh start in decluttering.
