Refresh your abode with these super simple tips to create more space and flow in your home.

​

Clutter Buster 1 –Your Kitchen Cupboards

So often out-of-date food (especially tinned foods) lie in our cupboards for months, and even years. 

​

There is always plenty cooking in the kitchen, and as such is a good place to begin to declutter. Just start with one cupboard, and see what happens!

 

Clutter Buster 2 – Fridge and Freezer.

 

Are both jammed packed full?

No space to see what's there.

Time to clean and clear and allow air to circulate.

Clutter Buster 3 – Those Dusty Books Take UP Space

Cluttered book cases gather dust, consume and constrict space.

• Time to review everything hanging on walls.

• Like food, music also becomes outdated and can be draining energetically.

​

Clutter Buster 8 – Windows  

• Windows allow the light to shine in our living spaces and the sky to be seen.

• For extra sparkle, use crumbled newspaper, as the paper leaves a film that is resistant to dirt.

 

Clutter Buster 9 - Furniture

• Don't hang on to it if not needed. 

• Clearing it out could be the most important thing you do this year.
