Living Space Decluttering - Before and After!

Design Your Life

9 years ago

Before: This bedroom was cluttered with boxes and the bookshelves needed some attention.

After: We removed the added clutter in the boxes and found homes for all the items, as well as cleaned and organized the bookshelves to create a system for easy future access!

Looks much better.

That should be an inspiration to people who have clutter in their homes.

looks like an inspiring refresh, but there's a couple of things I notice that won't stop it from becoming a problem again. *there's no room for more stuff, I find when decluttering you have to leave at least 10-25% empty because a space that needs decluttering...is a space that is getting new objects *hanging a sign over the face of books makes it either too hard to get books out or put them away and is another indication there's still too much there. believe me, I absolutely agree it's a great start, but I struggle with the same...keep going!
