Deciding what to keep

Cleaning your surfaces
De-cluttering is the perfect opportunity to clean all those parts of your home that are normally hidden. While you're removing things from shelves and surfaces, check for any signs of mould and wipe them away with Problem Solves Mould & Mildew Remover & Preventer. Having a lot of clutter around can lead to a mould problem developing without you noticing, so by tidying up you're making you're home safer! Remove old stains from your fabrics and upholstery with the Problem Solved Dried in Stain Remover. This will make the soft furnishings you decide to keep look good as new.
Finding space for the essentials
You probably don’t get a great deal of joy from your cleaning products, toiletries and kitchen utensils but you’d be pretty stuck without them. You can make your home look a lot better by organising your essentials in a way that uses space cleverly and effectively. This way you can avoid that overly cluttered look. When things look crowded you feel stressed out just looking at them! Our Ideaworks 3 Tier Space Saving Shelves can be attached to white goods like fridges and washing machines. This creates storage and helps you store your things tidily without taking up floor space.
Marie Kondo believes storage should be simple, so that it’s just as effortless to put something back as it is to locate it. She also suggests keeping things close to where you will be using them. This saves you the annoyance of hunting for something every time you need it. One of our favourite storage ideas is the Ideaworks Bathroom Caddy. It hooks over your toilet and creates room for magazines, extra toilet rolls, even your phone! Let’s face it, we all like a bit of quality time in the bathroom now and then. Having ways to pass the time next to where you’re sitting is convenient as well as tidy.
Tidy up your drawers and cupboards
A key part of the Marie Kondo way of tidying up is folding things. By folding your clothes in her origami-like manner they'll drawers in a far more elegant way. For even sharper organisation, a set of Ideaworks Snap-Fit Drawer Dividers can be used to divide drawers into pleasingly uniform sections. This will make your newly folded socks, pants and t-shirts look amazing! For non-foldable items like shoes, the Jocca London Fabric Shoe Rack is space-saving and stylish. You can store up to 12 pairs and it features a fun London-themed design! Once you’ve done your big tidy, give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done. Let yourself feel the satisfaction that comes from having a lovely, organised space! Remind yourself of how good it feels if you feel yourself slipping into old habits. The KonMari method of focusing on what brings you joy can help you stay on track. It’s also a great way to think about life in general. How often do we cling to objects, thoughts and people that no longer bring joy into our lives? By starting with the objects in your life, perhaps you can get a new perspective on what else makes you happy.
