Walls

Walls are locations we overlook in our decluttering.  There are two aspects to walls:

1.  We breeze past them daily and don't pay attention to what it hanging on the walls.  Is it time to get rid of an old plaque or picture, framed cross-stitch, etc?  I had two pair of candles hanging from a decorative hook.  A couple years ago I began hanging necklaces on that same hook.  The candles became buried under jewelry.  I "found" them recently and put them in the giveaway bin.  No need to keep those old things.

2.  Walls can also be a way to declutter dressers, table tops, etc.  Hang those photo frames on the wall instead of having them all over the top of an end table.  It makes dusting SO much easier and gives a cleaner look.  Hang a decorative basket on a wall to hold mail instead of having it pile up on the counter.  Hang jewelry on a hook on the wall to declutter your drawer or top of your dresser.

Take a fresh look at your walls.
