Keeping your home tidy can be tedious!
We know how frustrating it is when we see the clutter building up around our homes. A busy life can often lead us to forget about tidying up, inevitably creating an environment in which we can’t fully relax.
That’s why we’re bringing you 5 easy ways to keep on top of things and live a tidier life!
Prioritize
The more stuff you have, the messier your home is going to get.
One of the easiest ways to keep things tidy is to prioritize the items in which you regularly use and put everything else away. Get rid of things you don’t use anymore and organize items that you occasionally use into storage.
Put things away
Here's the obvious one, put things back after you've used them!
It’s very easy to toss something to the side once you’ve done using it but getting into the habit of putting things back in their allocated place has got to be the most effective way of keeping tidy. It can take a little getting used to, but once you’ve got the hang of it you’ll really notice the change!
Take your shoes off
We do sometimes forget to take our shoes off when we come home, not realizing we’re contaminating our carpets with whatever we’ve trodden over on the way back.
Making use of your doormat and taking your shoes off as soon as you enter will drastically minimize how often you need to hoover up.
Routines
A great way of keeping your house clean is sticking to daily routines such as making your bed every morning, doing the dishes every night, etc.
This is the best way to always remember to tidy up. By creating these routines, you will be much more likely to keep on top of your essential tasks. Set yourself a task and a time to do it each day and the pattern will form in no time!
Take your mess with you
Never leave a room without bringing your leftover items with you, whether it be coffee mugs, plates, laundry, leftover food, etc.
Every time you leave a room, quickly sweep the area for anything you can dispose of or put away. Never leave anything behind and you'll always come back to a nice and tidy room.
