    Default Clutter and Storage

    This one, I'm working on. I'm forever saying we don't have enough space, when when I really look around, I see empty spots everywhere that could be creatively used.

    Evaluate the storage in every room. Good storage maximizes your space and provides easy access to the things you use most often. Look for invisible storage spots - you might be able to create a tool room under a staircase or store linens in a box under your bed.

    Omg I was so mad at myself for ignoring a skinny but yet very tall cabinet above the stove I only started using it about 2 years after we moved in! I find that it's the perfect place to store all my brillo pads
    Thanks for the reminder! I love seeing the decluttering type posts it always gets me motivated!
