With Toss Ten, you are making a simpler decision. I don’t know how people do it, I can never decide what to throw out and what to keep and I end up just keeping it all I suggest you stand in the middle of your room, look around, and find 10 things that you can remove from the building (trash or recycle, donate, give to someone). I feel like you are confusing "decluttering" with "tidying" or "organizing." Or you could try out the idea by cutting down a shipping box to fit. It made me extremely happy to discover my grandpa's diner mug could hold small items in my bedside drawer for instance. You may even find something to hold that stuff in your room. Do NOT buy anything! Wait until you have calmed things down in your room. If the window sill is perfect great but surround it with other much loved things or at least use a skinny basket/box/bin if that's a handy spot for other stuff.
If that music box is important then keep it in a special place.
Decluttering and tidying up are not one time deals. It's okay to go through many times as you discover what you really want to keep in your life. I liked setting a timer for 5-30 minute sessions and if I was starting to hit the wall would set it again so I'd get back to it.ĭon't go for perfect. If the going gets tough you need a break. If you stall it's possible the item is sentimental - pop into a box to go through last. Once I'd gone through every area, mostly knew where stuff was and obvious discards were out I gathered up categories of stuff. I had no plan, just dug out whatever area was bugging me most stuff wise. Also I found it extremely rewarding to see to the back of the closet and close a drawer even if the contents were not exactly tidy. I put the keepers right back where I found them as tidying and organizing weren't as important as getting a mental inventory of what I had and being able to use the bed at night. What I did was dump a small area on my bed or middle of the floor and sort there. If the deep dark corners might be dusty cover the bed with a clean sheet first.Įven after the obvious laundry and trash are out it could be too overwhelming to gather up categories of stuff. Be sure to have several bags and/or boxes ready for trash, recycling or donations. It's easier to see what you want to keep when stuff is out of its usual haunts. Use your tidy bed as a staging area to sort.
DECLUTTER BEDROOM HOW TO
To keep a tidy room it's important to learn how to tidy, what you want/need to keep and whether to buy that new dohicky or keep the old. If you try to do this too fast you'll either rage purge or curl up into a whimpering ball. It just ends up being a cycle of it never being decluttered. When I decide to declutter I usually start by cleaning the floor, but by the time I do that I don’t want to do the rest, but then if I start with something else the floor gets worse and then I don’t want to do the floor because it’s so messy. There’s things I like that I don’t want to throw out, such as my music box carrousel, but I just don’t know where to put it, it’s on the windowsill but I’d like to clear my windowsill up a bit because it’s already got my makeup, plants, and other ornaments on it. Nothing feels like it has a place, everything’s kind of just in a place “for now” except that for now seems to be its permanent place. just everywhere I look it’s just more stuff just shoved in an area cause there was nowhere else to put it. I don’t know how people do it, I can never decide what to throw out and what to keep and I end up just keeping it all. Not to mention the fact that two days later I manage to get it right back to square one. I would love a nice room that wasn’t cluttered and was clean but even when I do “declutter” it’s just the exact same but in a different place. My room is very cluttered, I have a lot of things and no space to put them, I honestly just don’t even know where to begin, it’s just so much.
