Shab-e-Barat just happened yesterday, along with this event, the Eid-ul-Fitr vibe begins following Ramadan. The biggest festival of Muslims is Eid-ul-Fitr. Everybody has their special plan according to the festival. But the biggest part has to be performed by the home authority. The main part of a wide plan is home organising. The home must need to be clean, organised, and looking good.
Here we are to help with the step-by-step decluttering tips for every room. Planning it out room-by-room is the most efficient way to organize and declutter, and most rooms can be completed in the span of a weekend.
How to declutter your bedrooms
Bedrooms often become dumping grounds for stuff that doesn’t have a home in any other room. It has been observed that the bedroom is the #1 most cluttered room in the home. Realistically, you don’t need more than a bed, nightstands, and storage for clothes, shoes, jewelry, and makeup.
Depending on the crowd level, it will take you anywhere from an afternoon to a full weekend of work to clear out and organize your bedroom.
Start by decluttering drawers
Take everything out of your drawers, and ask the following questions about each item:
-Does it belong in the bedroom?
-Have you used or worn it in the last year?
If you answered, “no” to either of those questions, put the item in your “Get Rid Of” bin or move it to the room where it belongs.
Once you’re ready to place the items back inside the drawers, try adding dividers or small containers so you can store like-things together. You can get creative and repurpose small gift boxes, shoe boxes, cereal boxes, or plastic containers as drawer storage systems. You can also add shelf paper to make cleaning the drawers easier in the future.
Keep flat surfaces clear
Try to keep flat surfaces almost clear. It’s okay to have a few decorations, a lamp, or pictures on top of your dresser or nightstand. Try to limit each surface in the bedroom to less than five things on top. When you have fewer things cluttering the flat surfaces in your room, space will feel more calming and peaceful, and chaos-free.
Utilize storage bins for seasonal items and toys
Not everything can be tucked away behind a closed door. Closets are valuable real estate in a home, so certain items like kids’ toys or seasonal clothing and bedding often need to be stored somewhere else.
Kids’ toys can be kept in baskets, toy shelves in the bedroom. If you find yourself running out of space for toys, it’s time to donate some of those which are not being used in the past few weeks.
Seasonal clothing, bedding, and decorations can be easily stored in plastic or cloth bins that fit under the bed or in a closet. Space-saver bags and comforter bags are also an option if you’re looking to fit bulky items into a smaller space.
Ask yourself if an item sparks joy. If it does, you will feel light and joyful. However, if something feels heavy or confusing, then it's a sign that you have an attachment to the past, such as - "I have to keep this because my mom gave it to me", or a fear of the future - "What if I need it again?”
When you only choose to keep what sparks joy and support your ideal lifestyle, your home becomes a place that recharges you emotionally, makes you feel happier living in it, instead of being draining and overwhelming.
