Mini Mission Monday is about finding ten minutes a day to declutter. To make it easy for you, each Monday I set seven declutter missions, one for each day of the week for you to follow. It takes the guess work out of decluttering and makes it easy and “fun” for you to achieve some quick decluttering.

We’ve done it before and now we are doing it again. What is our clutter made up of and can you find an item for each day this week that is made from a different material. I bet you can. I look forward to comments about how clever you have been and extra points for thinking outside the box.

Monday – Declutter something made from plastic.

Tuesday – Declutter something made from wood.

Wednesday – Declutter something made from paper.

Thursday – Declutter something made from fibre.

Friday – Declutter something made from glass

Saturday – Declutter something made from metal.

Sunday - Sunday is reserved for contemplating one particular item, of your choice that is proving difficult for you to declutter. Whether that be for sentimental reasons, practical reasons, because the task is laborious or simply unpleasant, or because the items removal requires the cooperation of another person. That last category may mean that the item belongs to someone else who has to give their approval, it could also mean there is a joint decision to be made or it could mean that the task of removing it requires assistance from someone else. There is no need to act on this contemplation immediately, it is more about formulating a plan to act upon or simply making a decision one way or another.

Good luck and happy decluttering

Homes have so many nooks and crannies where stuff can be hiding, out of sight and out of mind. Good chance is that if they are out of mind then they aren’t even necessary. So lets take a look in some of those out of the way places for a little clutter to dispose of.

Monday – Declutter something from the upper reaches of a closet.

Tuesday - Declutter something from under a bed.

Wednesday - Declutter something from a lesser used drawer.

Thursday - Declutter something from the back reaches of a kitchen cabinet.

Friday - Declutter something from under a sink/basin.

Saturday - Declutter something from unexposed sections of a display cabinet, buffet, coffee table or similar.

Sunday - Sunday is reserved for contemplating one particular item, of your choice that is proving difficult for you to declutter. Whether that be for sentimental reasons, practical reasons, because the task is laborious or simply unpleasant, or because the items removal requires the cooperation of another person. That last category may mean that the item belongs to someone else who has to give their approval, it could also mean there is a joint decision to be made or it could mean that the task of removing it requires assistance from someone else.

This weeks mini missions mostly address some the basics reasons why we should let things go that are wasting space in our homes. They will mean something different to each of us but even though they may seem vague it can be amazing how quickly an object will come to mind the fits the description. So good luck and happy decluttering.

Monday – Declutter something you haven’t used for a long time.

Tuesday – Declutter something you use but isn’t really helpful.

Wednesday – Declutter something that you don’t like the look of.

Thursday – Declutter something that you have too many of.

Friday – Declutter something that you wish you had never acquired.

Saturday – Ask someone else in the household to declutter something of theirs that you feel meets one of the descriptions above.
