Make decluttering your home quick and easy! -You should create a checklist: Start with a few items that you plan on getting rid of and go from there. The list will begin to get long quickly. -Set a timeline for yourself: Give yourself a goal of what room you want to take on that day, and when it should be done by.... -Make "3 piles": The first pile should be your "keep" or your everyday items. The second pile would be your "get rid of", these items will be thrown out or donated. The last pile would be the " storage", these items are usually seasonal or sentimental items.

Ready for our Tip Tuesday? -Clean your kitchen trash can at least once a month. For optimal results try cleaning the trash can with baking soda and add a deodorizing pod. -Try using dryer sheets under chairs or on the back of your clothing dressers-this will give your clothes and room a boost of freshness.... -Give your garbage disposal a deep clean with white vinegar and baking soda to get rid of those funky scents looming in your home. -Try adding some indoor plants inside your home! They will not only help neutralize odors but also add some cute touches around the home.
