1. START SMALL Do you tend to get overwhelmed with tackling a large space?  Choose a small project, even if it’s one drawer or cabinet.  Get through that particular space first.

Grab armfuls if you have to and deposit everything in one area so you can see what you have.  Once everything is removed take in how much empty space you have.  Envision that space as an organized place where you can find exactly what you need.  Does that space have dividers or new contact paper to cover the surface?

2, TAKE ALL THE CLUTTER OUT

My rule is if I haven’t touched it in a year it goes.  Period.

3. Get Rid of Unnecessary Items

like to reach out to local places like shelters or temporary housing organizations!  Items like towels, pots, pans and appliances in good condition are appreciated by organizations or families who are transitioning into new housing.
