I am the QUEEN of throw everything on the counter into any drawer or cabinet it’ll fit into before our deep cleaners come. I do it almost every time and then weeks later wonder why my very organized cabinets are chuck full and dishelved. Well, it’s my own doing! I have found that when everything has a home, I don’t need to shove it into the junk drawer!
How is it possible to have everything have a home, when you don’t have a lot of space. Well, it’s time to prioritize what you NEED and what you are holding onto for a rainy day.
1- Have you used it in the last 3 months? 6 months? 1 year?
2- Do you have multiple of the same thing? Maybe you don’t need 4 pizza cutters.
3- Does it hold sentimental value?
4- Are you holding onto it because it was expensive, but don’t use it?
5- Does it belong somewhere else that makes more sense?
