No matter how clean a
place is, clutter makes it look disorganized and unattractive and it has been
known to kill creativity in those who dwell there. In the today world so many
thing contribute to the clattering and it is good to come up with a plan to reduce
it or at best eliminate it.
One of the greatest things
responsible in the cluttering department is the plastic shopping paper bags
that are used by most departmental stores and if you must use them then ensure
that you recycle them. Some groups have come up with ways of threading them and
making ropes. These are also melted and beads made out of them that make very
beautiful jewelry.
Go an extra step and get a shopping basket for
when you go to the market so that the option of packing your groceries in the
plastic paper bag is ruled out. It becomes so convenient if you keep an extra
shopping bag in the car just incase you forget to bring one if you have to rush
out in a hurry.
The soda cans are another
great contributor to the clutter and since today you can sell anything,
it is good to collect them in a basket and sell them by the kilo and if that is
too much work for you put them in the recycle bin together for garbage
collection.
Mail is another culprit in
the never ending clutter situation, for this ensure that you have a mail tray
where all mail is put and sorted according to type and a file can be opened to
keep what is important and the bills paid and any junk should be disposed off
immediately to avoid a pile up that can easily clutter.
Women and their cosmetics
are inseparable and a special place should be designated for that .Summer and
winter makeup differentiated so that what is not being used at the moment is
kept away until needed. All the old makeup no matter how expensive should be
disposed off.
Old medicines and pill
bottles can also cause unnecessary clutter and should be disposed off safely.
Many pharmacies and drugstore have facilities of old medicine disposal.
Old clothing and shoes that the children have outgrown or any other that have not been worn
in the last six months should be donated or sold in a second hand clothing
store or even better auctioned on eBay and you will be surprised at how much
clutter can be eliminated.
A clean environment makes it
easier to find where stuff is kept and saves time and a lot of energy and gives
a warm and inviting place to reside.
