100+ Things To Declutter Plus A Free Printable.

So, I am huge on delcuttering. I love to declutter every few months. Not only does it make me feel better and makes my anxiety better but it makes it so much easier when you plan to move. We have one more year in this house and then we plan to move to something bigger to accommodate us. So I’ve put together a list for you of 100+ things to declutter and even included a printable calendar to help you stay organized. I didn’t add dates so you can print it out and add any dates on it and then get to decluttering!

Check out my last declutter blog HERE.

I remember the first time I decluttered I was so overwhelmed and didn’t even know where to begin. I thought I needed to do it all in one day. Well boy was I wrong. Decluttering takes awhile and it’s totally okay. Especially after the holidays it’s a must to declutter! All the new stuff and the clutter from the year!

So here you’ll do one day at a time. One space a day to not overwhelm yourself. Let’s start with the place you are the most!

There you have it 100+ to declutter. I promise you’ll feel so much better once you’ve done this. Take it one day at a time. One section at a time. I always try to aim for one or two rooms a day when I’m decluttering and then it only take me a week or so to declutter my entire house! It’s the best feeling! I love going into a new year with a decluttered house. Putting away all the Christmas decor and decluttering makes you feel like a brand new person.
