The million dollar question is, "how do I keep the clutter from coming back"? 🤔💭
I have asked myself this for years, so you are not alone! 🙋♀️🙋♂️
The key is small little habits… 🗝️🔑
Pantry: 🍲🍽️
I check on my food pantry every other day if not every day. 📆 I will tidy up if something got put away wrong, and I will take note of anything getting low. 📝 It takes 30-60 seconds max, and I usually do that while I am waiting for my water when I am making my tea! ☕🌅
Entry: 🚪👞🧥
For the entryway, I casually check on it when I come into the house and tidy anything out of place. 🧹✨ If I notice someone didn't put their shoes away, I will slide them into position or I might pick up a jacket if one is left. 🚶♀️👟🧥 Honestly, the entry stays pretty tidy because everything has a home (keys, sunglasses, mail, jackets, shoes, backpacks, etc). 🏠🔑
Kitchen counters:
This is where things can go sideways in our house! 🤦♀️ It's so easy to leave something and just let it sit there for days… and days. Like the entryway, I try to tidy things up when I am in the kitchen. If something is left on the counter and I am headed in the direction of its home, I will grab it and put it away along the way. 🚶♀️🏠 I am a firm believer in "never leave a room empty-handed". 💪 I also will spend 5 minutes each evening tidying up and wiping the counters. I love walking into a tidy kitchen in the morning! 🌟
Bathrooms: 🛀🚽
This is another area where it's easy for things to get left out. I will make sure things get put away, and if one of the kids keeps leaving the same thing out day after day, I will look at why - is it because there is no room for it? 🤷♀️📦 Does the organization need to be tweaked? Or does the kiddo just need a reminder to put things away when they are done? 😊
These small habits and focused 30-second to 5-minute blocks of time make all the difference when trying to keep clutter at bay and keep your home tidy! 🏡🧹✨
