Do you ever feel like your home is cluttered, but you don't know where to get started on decluttering? I completely understand.
I often want to get started on decluttering a room and yet I don't even know where to begin. It's easy to look in a room and get completely overwhelmed with the idea of decluttering. You start to wonder what you should be decluttering.
One of my favorite books Real Life Organizing talks about doing a 21 item toss. This is a great way to get in the mindset of decluttering. Just take a trash bag and walk around your home to find 21 things to throw out. It doesn't have to be large things, usually, I can find an old receipt or some trash laying around.
If you can't find 21 things that's fine, it's just an easy way to help you get in the decluttering mindset. After doing the 21 item toss you can start finding some easy wins with decluttering. Check out my favorite things to declutter right now and get your home free from clutter.

Decluttering always gets me stressed, I am big on recycling so I am cautious on what I throw away and if I can't find a place to recycle a item it will usually end up in the garage, paint cans, kitty litter containers, electronics.
