Cut Bedroom Clutter


 

Buy bedroom furniture that makes the most out of your storage needs particularly if you're at a premium for space. Get hide-a-beds, futons, storage trunks, beds with built-in drawers underneath, headboards with drawers, shelves, cabinets and cubbies, etc. Anything that gives you extra storage space is what you should look for.


Keep office papers out of the bedroom. This is your sanctuary.
Limit the number of magazines in the room. They tend to stack up and create lots of clutter. Read them and move on.
 

Keep clothes that need mending or ironing in a basket in your laundry room or your closet not on a chair in the bedroom.


Go through your shoes and clothes regularly and give away or toss those you haven't worn in a couple of years.


Keep a "donate" box, replenish it regularly and deliver it or have it picked up as soon as it's full.
 

Dust your room at least every two months.
