Some tips and information on how to declutter and try to live clutter free as much as possible. It's not always an easy thing to accomplish but a little effort can go a long way.
A decluttered and clean home is not a "do it once and it stays forever" sort of thing, especially if you have children.
BUT decluttering can be done and without too much effort. REALLY, IT'S TRUE !
For example, start keeping the junk mail under control.. Once you've got that down to a science take on another task while keeping up with the junk mail.

As the title says, here you will discover what to do to get rid of excess stuff.
You know the sayings, "you can never be too rich", " you can never have too much chocolate" or "more is never too much".
Well that may be true in the case of money and chocolates (that's why I chose that picture of the chocolates, yum!) but with clutter, you CAN have too much and more is too much...way too much!
So that's why you want to keep reading for that kick in the butt to get rid of excess stuff!
Whatever it is, you DO NOT JUST HAVE to have another one!
I'm sure you've seen those shows on television where the crew from the show goes in and cleans
out the people's homes. Then they redo the rooms and make them livable and gorgeous.
Here's the thing, you do NOT want to fall into that trap. Make up your mind now

Here's an idea - pick just one area where you tend to let things pile up and work
on keeping that one area neat and tidy.
The experts say it takes 30 days to form a habit, so if you keep after it, then
30 days later it'll seem so easy you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.
This post today is a totally self serving post ! I just finished creating a new website about pantry storage solutions. I'm very new at this website building stuff so I hope it will get enough page rank in Google to actually get visitors...some day. lol
The layout and colors turned out pretty good in my estimation and the storage items that are shown are from Amazon.com.
The first page has lots of pantry storage baskets that are a lovely espresso color. They're really quite pretty!
There's also other pages with shelves, kitchen storage solutions, varying items and Tupperware. Tupperware is always good for helping out with the decluttering thing.
And I've also got some things called "widgets" along the side featuring some roll out pantry storage ideas. All in all I think it looks very good for visitors, is easy to navigate and has lots of good deals for anyone looking for some pantry storage items.
First of all, does the pack rat really want to declutter? Sometimes accumulating things gets to be addictive and we don't want help decluttering or cleaning out. But then if it's time for it to go, then it's gotta go! So, here are some decluter tips for helping a pack rat declutter.
Back up the moving van, granny, we’re going to declutter. There it is. Your first declutter home tip. Not what you were expecting? I didn’t think so, but of course I was just joking.
Now here are just a few tips to get you thinking of how you can declutter and organize. Ok, this probably seems obvious, but the first thing to do is take a look at what needs to be done overall.
Once you get a good idea of where you’re going, then you can take the time to divide the tasks into smaller jobs. Don’t obsess over the “all” that needs doing just concentrate on the one job at hand. Finish that and move on to the next.
Don’t be overly concerned about the time issue. You didn’t get into this mess in one day, so don’t expect to get it all done in one day. Unless, of course, you’re only mildly cluttered! (Is there such a thing as “mildly” cluttered?)
In fact, I’d suggest making a plan or list of what needs doing. Then have a brain storm session with your family on how and when you can get it done. Try to get everyone involved. That way the weight of it all isn’t on one person. Would that person be you…the one reading this article?
Another declutter help tip would be to just hire someone to come in and straighten up your mess. Yes, that could be pricey, but is your sanity worth it? Then the big question is, would everyone in the family agree to keep up with the new uncluttered lifestyle? Hmmm, it’s something to think about.
So, while you’re thinking you can find out more with a great resource, Declutter Fast, by Mimi Tanner. A short easy to read ebook on how to get your house organized almost immediately. Mimi was once a cluttered pack rat herself. Read her story and tips and see if they won’t help you declutter fast.
Wow, isn't that just a great title? Ahh, I could just sit back and bask in my cleverness for coming up with blog post titles. But, I can't actually take credit for it.
I have another website, www.squidoo.com/clean-house-declutter-plan, and that wording was a Google search that someone did and they ended up on my site. Sooo, I decided to use it as a title for a new blog post.
The thing is, though, today, I got NUTHIN FOR YA! My plan was to write a post to promote one of my other declutter help sites so it can get some love from Google, but what can I say...I'm not in the decluttering mood today.
I've got plans to go out to lunch and do some shopping with a friend. I'm dressed and waiting for her to come by. Who wants to clean or organize or declutter while you're waiting to go out? Certainly not me!
So, here's my advice for today...go have some fun! I am!
Hey, Guys and Gals, doesn't everyone have some excess baggage that needs chucking? Yep, I thought so. Here's a good article on the exact same subject, get rid of excess stuff - and it's got some good information, just for you.
5 Tips for Getting Rid of Excess Stuff by Mary Brown
Don't you think that deciding to get rid of excess stuff is somewhat like making a New Year's resolution? We're all into the moment and get all emotional and shout, "This is it! I'm going to do such and such this new year!" Hooray for us!
Since most of the time these decisions don't last, let me help you with my 5 tips to get rid of excess stuff:
1. Make a quality decision. 2. Have a plan before you start. 3. Set a specific date and time. 4. Have someone help you. 5. Determine to stay clutter free.
Don't we just finally get tired of looking at the mess, throw up our hands and vow to get rid of it once and for all?
Instead of doing that, take the time to sit down and rationally and unemotionally make a quality decision to get organized and uncluttered.
Ok, now that you've made the decision, get something to write on because you're going to make a plan.
Set a specific date and time for the cleaning. If you don't do this you'll just keep putting it off like you've already done up to this point. Believe me, I know. So, mark your calendar and stick to it.
Next get the family involved. If you're single see if you can't get some friends to help. The reason for this is to keep you from saving most of what you should be clearing out.
Tell them to be "brutal" with you! You've got to get this excess stuff gone and for good. It doesn't matter what you do with it - give it away, throw it away, have a garage sale - just get rid of it!
So you've made your quality decision to get clutter free, you've set the date and time and you've got your help. Now comes the hardest part, I think, of all. You've got to be determined to not go back to being a pack rat!
While you're in your planning mode, think about how you ended up with all this excess in the first place and decide, again a quality decision, to change your habits.
So now let's recap our 5 tips:
1. Make a quality decision. 2. Have a plan before you start. 3. Set a specific date and time. 4. Have someone help you. 5. Determine to stay clutter free.
It only takes 30 days, "they" say, to make or break a habit. Therefore, if you stick with it for at least 30 days after you get rid of the excess stuff, your desire to let things pile up should be under control and you can live a more organized and clutter free life.
