You can keep a clean space by identifying the main culprits who complicate your house and making a habit of emptying it. What small but disturbing items are there. Let's check the house right now and start the first step of emptying.
a pile of plastic shopping bags
Most plastic shopping bags piled up with the idea that they will be useful someday are left unattended. It is difficult to store because of its different shapes and sizes, and it only takes up space. Let's fold and store only what is needed and dispose of the rest by recycling. Reusable eco-bags can be used to reduce the dependence on plastic bags. After organizing, let's put it in the storage box and manage it neatly.
Expired Seasoning and Sauce
Seasoning and sauces left in refrigerators or cupboards change their taste and aroma after the expiration date, lowering the quality of cooking. Unused source bottles may also be responsible for bacterial reproduction. Let's check the refrigerator once a month and throw away expired products. Let's buy a small amount of seasoning that we use often and keep it fresh. If it is divided into transparent containers, it is easy to determine the amount of use, which can reduce waste.
clothing that has not been worn for a long time
Clothes that have not been worn for a year or two are unlikely to be worn in the future. I took it out every season I just put it in and waste the closet space. Let's check the clothes, organize them around the clothes we wear often, and dispose of them with donations or recycling. Styling is also convenient if clothes are organized neatly using hangers and storage boxes. Organizing clothes is the beginning of a minimal wardrobe and efficient life.
leftover vials and tumblers
Jam bottles, glass bottles, and tumblers are saved for recycling, but when they increase, they eat the storage space. Bottles whose purpose is unclear only accumulate dust and disturb the space. Let's just recycle or donate the rest, leaving only clear design and purpose. Glass bottles are practical if used as sub-containers or vases. Let's check the storage box regularly to reduce unnecessary tumblers.
an unused souvenir
Souvenirs, promotional mugs, and character goods are piled up for free, but in reality, they are easy to be left unattended. Useless objects disturb the space and collect dust. Let's put down our emotional attachment and leave only practical things. If you leave souvenirs in pictures and organize your items, you will feel lighter. Let's keep things neat by displaying only one or two items for decoration.
old papers and magazines
Old receipts, instructions, and magazines build up to the idea that you might need them one day. But most of the time, it only takes up space without replaying it. Let's scan and store digitally replaceable documents and organize physical documents once a month. Let's cut and store only interesting pages in magazines and recycle the rest. If you use a filing cabinet or file box, you can organize it neatly.
broken electronics and cables
Broken headphones, chargers, and old electronics are likely to be left unattended without plans to repair them. The tangled cables disturb the space and collect dust. Recycle or dispose of products that don't work immediately. Cleanliness is maintained by organizing only necessary cables by use and storing them in the storage box. Let's conduct electronic inspection periodically to reduce unnecessary items.
The reason why the house is complicated is not because the space is small, but because there are many unnecessary things. If you feel burdened to organize everything at once, start with the habit of cutting down one day. When the habit of emptying builds up, a clean and relaxed space is created.
