BECOME A MINIMALIST BY<br />
DE-CLUTTERING<br />
8<br />
Becoming a minimalist can be hard and is not<br />
for everyone, but it is a great start to freshening up your home<br />
for <strong>2020</strong>. Clutter can account for a lot of lost space in your rooms<br />
and by de-cluttering some of this you can maximise the space<br />
in your home. Ask yourself the hard questions.... do I use this?<br />
do I like it? or as Marie Kondo would say “Does this item spark<br />
joy?”. If something is useful, has an emotional connection or<br />
something you look at and love, then keep it. If it doesn’t then<br />
lose it. Follow this by using step 1, sleek storage solutions, to keep<br />
all your goods in a neat and tidy place.<br />
