  • 16. Time Will Tell

    08:22
     If you've got items you'd really LIKE to declutter but you're a bit nervous... why not give a Time Will Tell Box a go.Pop items you need just a little bit more time to decide on into a box to assess again in a few months. Seal it up and write the date on the box. See what you think in a few months... hopefully once you've experienced living without the items you'll then be ready to donate the items in your Time Will Tell Box.Before you open the box, try to think what might be in there that you've missed. You might be surprised that you forget what you put in... in which case send it off for donation!Remember to declutter as much as you can and then only put the items in the time will tell box if you absolutely need to. It's a backstop, not a full stop.You may also like to listen to these episodes:Running OutLimiting ChoiceReturns BoxJoin our communityBecome a Patron – your monthly donation makes a huge difference to me being able to produce this podcast.

  • 12. Living Room 101

    17:36
    If the kitchen is the heart of the home, the living room is the heart beat... I've found over the years that the state of a living room is a goodindicator of how a home is tracking along. A living space is where high rotation items tend to live, where people congregate, where community happens and resting and relaxing happen also. It's also one of the first rooms in any home to become cluttered and overwhelming.You are invited to join the free course for this series where each Monday you'll receive access to a new podcast episode, decluttering checklist and organising cheat sheet (as well as some surprise bonuses), all so you can declutter and organise like a pro!Make sure to join to download your Living Room Check List & Cheat SheetYou may also like to listen to these episodes:Living RoomSentimental ItemsLike with LikeRepurposing SpacesBoard Games & PuzzlesRoom to BloomBehind Cupboard DoorsBooks & MagazinesHidden ClutterMagazinesMemorabiliaJoin our communityBecome a Patron – your monthly donation makes a huge difference to me being able to produce this podcast.
