How to declutter my house
"Having clutter in your house is perfectly normal. If you are a human being, you're going to accumulate "stuff".
"
How I did it: But when it begins to pile up it becomes a problem. Not knowing how to declutter can be an issue.
Rules to Dump By
1) Everything gets examined ONCE. It either gets DUMPED (trash or donation) or SPARED. There is no in-between.
2) CLOTHING: did you wear it happily the previous season? If not, DUMP it, no matter how “good” it is. (possible exception: favorites that are one size step too big or small)
3) HOUSEWARES: has it been used regularly this past year? If not, DUMP it. (exception: items which are occasionally needed (e.g., nice stuff like china))
4) DOCUMENTS: is it obviously critical to keep? If not, DUMP it. Also, DUMP everything that can be easily replaced or looked up online.
