Clear the Clutter!

Life before kids:

My husband and I had a beautiful home that we kept spotless. The floors were so clean, we could eat off them. Nothing was out of place. Clean, tidy, organized. If anyone came to our door as a surprise guest, that wasn't a problem. Our house was guest-ready at all times!

Fast forward 10 years, two children and a job working outside of the home later:

Toys everywhere, piles of papers, dresser drawers with unruly socks falling out of them, junk drawers filled with....well, junk, closets stuffed with clothes and items quickly shoved behind their doors when surprise guests arrived!

But in June I quit my office job and started to work from home. Trying to work with all that clutter around is distracting. Every time I open the spice cabinet, bottles tumble out, clothes just keep getting shoved into closets as there is no organization, and the piles of paper I have to move from one counter to the other so I don't see them when I work!

Now Christmas is looming, with a whole batch of new toys, clothes, and other gifts making way into my house.

It's time to declutter. Clean out the drawers that barely close, tame the socks into pairs, organize the closets, spice racks and medicine cabinets, and sort through the paper piles.

All this clutter is overwhelming, but I decided to devote the month of November to cleaning up the chaos. Each day I have assigned myself a closet or a drawer or a tiny project that's been on the to-do list for far too long.

If you can relate to this feeling of too much clutter, and you're not really sure where to start, I invite you to join me in my free Clear the Clutter group - how to declutter your house in one week (or at least get a good start). We will tackle your projects and I will share with you some of my best tips for organization.

Please respond "GOING" to the following event and I will add you into the private group.
