2. Not everything has a place
This one is very important because it’s one of the things that makes your home messy, but people don’t pay too much attention to it.
If you don’t know where to store something, chances are it will be thrown somewhere. You’re just going to place it in any drawer, cabinet, or open surface since you don’t know what else to do with it.
Solution? Find a home for whatever you have. It doesn’t matter how small it is; it needs a place to sleep (metaphorically speaking).
3. Invest in drawers
I don’t like things to be in plain sight, especially trinkets or small objects, and I prefer drawers or cupboards instead of shelves. It’s easier for me to dust, and my home looks polished and more organized thanks to the fact that I don’t have many things on display.
If you don’t like to have crowded shelves or belongings sitting on every open surface, investing in drawers and cupboards will make you feel better.
