Curious about What to do with Random Items
04/28/23 • 33 min
Have ever you got to the end of decluttering a space, stepped back to admire your handy work and then become filled with dread as you spy the pile of random bits and pieces next to you that you still need to find homes for?
Decluttering can be exhausting! Making so many decisions in a concentrated amount of time can be taxing, so it's no wonder something like this would feel like a kick in the ribs!
But what if there was a way to be able to deal with those random homeless leftovers and still keep that momentum and motivation?
In today's chat, Kirsty and Belinda give you solutions for dealing with those annoying random things AND give you 5 principles to follow so that next time you get your declutter on, you are equipped for whatever you come across.
In this episode we;
● Explain 5 principles to help your decision-making;
● Share tips from our team of Declutter Coaches;
● Discuss being intentional when finding homes for random items;
● Highlight the importance of storing things where it makes sense not where you think they should go;
● Challenge you not to keep things 'just in case';
And so so so so much more...
We hope from this conversation we all learn something and put a smile on your face!
