Pretend to Move

My friend recently moved everything out of rooms to get ready for new carpet being laid.  Her mantra is that nothing is going back in unless they really need it.  Sounds like a great plan...box everything up in one room like you're planning to move, wait a few days, and then put back what you need or really want to keep.  Even pulling everything out of one closet could work the same wonders.  Go with a small area like a bookshelf if necessary.

It's worth a try if you are in a simplifying slump!

  1. I did this with a closet, it was great! I think everyone should have to move at least every 7 years just to clean house ;) I'm going to re-do our office and I hope to really clear some clutter when I do. Hopefully before you come to see my house ;-0
