Here’s a great declutter plan-don’t even bring it home!  Don’t let it in the door!  Run from that “great” sale and don’t look back!

Be very, very choosy about what new items you bring into your home.  Know why you want it, how you are going to use it and where you are going to put it.  If you are replacing an item that is broken or one you don’t like, be sure to part with it when you bring home the new one.

Here are a few ways new items can find a way into our homes:

• You receive gifts.
• You can’t pass up a “good deal.”
• You inherit belongings.
• Garage sales pull you in like a magnet.
• Family or friends store their belongings at your house.
• Family or friends give you things they don’t want anymore.

It’s so easy to get overwhelmed with belongings so part with items on a regular basis and if you don’t need or even really want an item some wants to give you:  “Just say no!”
