Today take another look at those items cluttering up your kitchen benches making it difficult to keep this area clean. Now see if you can find a good place to put them away, but in a handy position, in one of the spaces you liberated throughout the week. This may take a little rearranging.

Choose another kitchen shelf to ruthlessly cull.

Declutter a shelt in your pantry. Hopefully some space is starting to open up now for some reshuffling. While you are doing this week’s missions I hope you are keeping the bench top clutter in mind and are choosing areas to declutter that will aid best in the reshuffling process.

Declutter your utensils drawer. Especially target those single use items that you rarely, if ever, use.

Declutter stuff from your kitchen counter. Cleaning these areas is difficult when they are cluttered with stuff. Rationalise what is used often enough to remain out and find a better way to store other things.

This week I will suggest a series of small missions to help in this larger goal. For today choose one cupboard in your kitchen to declutterr items from that are rarely or never used. This will start to set up space to help clear your bench tops.

Declutter something that makes you feel uncomfortable, whether physically or mentally.

Declutter and unwanted gift. You are really not obliged to keep items given to you by other people if they are of no use to you . These items are butter off being handed on to someone who actually might enjoy them or have a use for them.

Declutter 10 very small items. Perhaps stationery item, jewellery, hair ties or clips that don’t work for you, small excess hardware items…

Declutter something made from paper.

Well where did that month go. Actually where did last week go. Sorry I dropped off the radar, it was Thursday before I realised that I had forgotten about the mini missions. I hope you all managed to find things to declutter without my help.
Today I would like to suggest you find an item in your closet that you haven’t worn for a while and make a point of wearing it this week. Or at least trying it on to see if you actually like it and if is worth keeping. If the answers to those questions is no then out it goes.
