Decluttering a space and managing the storage and keeping it organized can be a bit of tedious work to do. You cannot be a pro in organizing everything in the house in a small time. You need to properly plan and make things have a designated place in order to maintain the decorum of the place. You do not need to be the master or you do not need some powers to organize things properly. All you need is some ideas and ways to make sure the place is tidy and chic.
Let’s list down some of the ways you can be a master at improving the place and making it look clean and in order.
Assign specific places for each and everything
This is the first and foremost thing to do when you are thinking of making the place look better and tidy. All the stuff that is just lying around in the house needs to have a specific place of its own. You can assign some drawers or cabinets to things that are not used in daily life. The same can be done to the ones that are used regularly. Assigning spaces to them can allow you to organize them easily. Make this rule that after using the required item it needs to be back into the space assigned to it, say it be a drawer, shelf, or a cabinet.
Create new storage spaces
If you do not have ample space available to you, you can always create some space to store things on your own. You can make new spaces or can use other stuff and utilize them as a storage space. If you have stairs then you can use the area under the space for storage and store extra stuff under the stair. You can also utilize things and reuse them into something to store things in. like if you have a big vase and it is of no use then you can use it as an umbrella stand or you can use a big basket to put your footwear or laundry in.
Make sure to remove old things that are no more in use
People often tend to hold onto things that are of no use and keep them around thinking that they might need them in the future. If you bring new items that are of the same category then try taking the old ones out. You can either donate them if they are functional or can throw them to get recycled or can throw them in the dustbin. Some of the things people tend to keep even when they are no more using it are clothes, books, toys, furniture, electronics, and others. If you do not need it anymore or you got yourself something that is better than that then try to donate the one not in use to give it to the needy and to make sure your place remains clutter-free and clean.
Use the vertical space available
There is a lot of space you can use vertically. Now you do not need to use all the space available to you, that is the walls of the house but you can definitely make use of some of the space from here. If you are short of storage area and spaces then this is the best way to create some new space. You can create some shelves on the walls where you can put stuff or can make some cabinets attached to the wall where you can store things. You can also install some hooks on the wall where you can hang your handbags, hats, clothes, or other things.
These are some of the ways you can use to make the place neat and tidy. There are several other ideas as well as to how you can make sure that your place is spotless and does not have things that are not in use sitting in different areas of the room. Make sure to remove things that are no longer in use as that might add up to the extra and useless stuff present in the house making it difficult to store stuff. There is no need to be picture-perfect, you can be messy and organized both at the same time. Get started and declutter your space.
