Spring is here and time to Spring Clean and Declutter. The blog listed below has a fantastic monthly declutter chart to follow. It breaks it down, making it way less intimidating with loads of tips....one kitchen drawer a day, purge your make up bags, discard old books, etc etc. There is always something to clean. Make it your Spring Time Resolution! Here's the link http://loveandmarriageblog.com/30-day-de-clutter-challenge/

This is a great tip for those with inboxes bursting at the seems. Make an 'archive' folder, date it 'today' and put all your inbox emails directly inside. Odds are that 95% are not useful/important anyway and if you need to find something specific, you can always use a search. I like it!  Here's the link! http://www.lifeclever.com/30-seconds-to-an-empty-email-inbox/

We love this de-cluttering tip, it's way less intimidating than being faced with a whole house, even a whole room: clean out a 'drawer a day'. By taking 10 or 15 minutes to clean out a fridge compartment, a shelf, a dresser drawer or even a show box, you can start to reclaim your home. There's a lovely note about Feng Shui in the article linked below; clutter traps 'Chi' and the goal to liberate this energy and allow it to flow through the home, is to de-clutter. There's no time to lose ( and would make a great New Years's Resolution!) Talking of drawers, this is one of our favorite pieces in store, an original Henredon Dresser, 31"D x 20" W x 64"L. A perfect piece of furniture to help de-clutter your home! Here's the link for more de-cluttering tips http://www.hgtv.com/design/decorating/clean-and-organize/declutter-strategies
