The Weather Outside is Frightful. Now is a Good Time To De-clutter the Inside of Your Home

As the weather gets colder, staying indoors is a reality. Instead of getting bored at home, observe each room and make a list of items no longer needed. Go to your local retailer and purchase some storage containers. You can visit each room of your home and see what is no longer needed or has not been used in years. Go through your clothing and decide what you could sell or donate to a local charity. After boxing up these items, place them in the garage or a storage unit. As spring arrives, you will have more time to enjoy the great outdoors and be ready for the yearly garage sale. Perhaps you may even find that item that you have been looking for for months. Another result of your labor is that you will feel better knowing that a task has been completed and your home may even feel larger with the reduction of items.
