Decluttering

Decluttering is the foundation to transforming your home. But don't be afraid! We can start small.

Reader Question – Help! The Clothes I Need to Donate are Dirty!

October 9, 2014 By Dana White 42 Comments

  I received this decluttering question yesterday: "I have tons of clothes that need to be decluttered that are dirty. How do you justify/handle washing cluttered clothes? It just doesn't seem to be a time justified task but is causing chaos in the bedroom." First of all, I understand. Completely. So much that I've written about my own … [Read more...]

The One Year Test in Action

October 8, 2014 By Dana White 7 Comments

As we did the Clean Up Before Sunday Night Church Home Group Starts thing last week, I ran across that random item. It's a water Frisbee. Or flying disc. Or whatever name isn't trademarked. It came in a cheap pack of water balls. I think the Easter Bunny might have brought it to our house. Water balls are awesome. Baseball games happen … [Read more...]

A Change of Socks for Everyone!!!

October 1, 2014 By Dana White 13 Comments

First, a joke: There once was an army general whose troops were on a losing streak. The men were terribly discouraged. Food was scarce, uniforms were tattered, and they'd been marching for so long that there had been no time to do laundry. The soldiers had been wearing the same underwear . . . for weeks months. The general knew he needed … [Read more...]

Re-Re-Re-Re-Decluttering. Again.

September 24, 2014 By Dana White 17 Comments

I stuck an affiliate link in this post. I think it fit. Yesterday, I shared a project-that-wasn't-actually-a-project. I finally straightened my bookshelf after putting off doing ANYthing because I considered it a decluttering project. You could totally argue that this project isn't really a project either. That it's simply a matter of … [Read more...]

It’s Amazing What a Little Straightening Can Do

September 23, 2014 By Dana White 11 Comments

Sometimes I look at a space and think, "Ugh. That's a decluttering project I need to do." Someday. When I have time to do a decluttering project. But then, when time is short before an impending doorbell, I tackle it anyway. Even though I don't have the time to do it right. Even when I don't have the mental energy to decide what should … [Read more...]

Time to “Go”

September 22, 2014 By Dana White 25 Comments

Last week, we had Potty Problems. Potty Problems that meant we had to call the plumber. Potty Problems in the master bathroom. In case you are new around here, just know that letting random non-immediate-family type people walk through the master bedroom and INTO the master bathroom is cause for major heart palpitations. I breathed in … [Read more...]

Deleting Email in Bulk in Yahoo Mail

September 17, 2014 By Dana White 38 Comments

I finally got a new phone. All was good and I was excited that the phone-selling-guy transferred everything over to my pretty, new device. And then I glanced at the bottom of the screen: Y'all, that's just embarrassing. Now, in case you've been around a while, you know that in general those red numbers don't annoy me at all. I don't … [Read more...]

Decluttering the Pantry (And Breakfast Nook)

September 10, 2014 By Dana White 15 Comments

It was time for a pantry clean-out. Summer, how I love thee. Summer, how you cause havoc in my home. Actually, it was time for a whole-house clean-out. When things get crazy around here, it's time to declutter. Some people might just call it "cleaning up" but it helps me to think of it as decluttering. It's the only way I know to get some … [Read more...]

Extra vs. Excess

September 8, 2014 By Dana White 25 Comments

Everyone needs an extra pair of tennis shoes, right? It only makes sense. Right? Right. Yard work, muddy camping trips, the (very real) threat of falling off the boat while on a fishing trip. Life happens, and it's good to have an extra pair of tennis shoes. But what about an extra extra pair? Every time I buy new tennis shoes I … [Read more...]
