1. Say goodbye to old pieces of stuff you no longer use: Quite often we are used to piling up or storing various old stuff that are no longer useful to us. The first and foremost thing that you should do is to get rid of these old things as soon as possible. For example, get rid of old toys and books that have been lying on the shelf for months or years, or get rid of the clothes in your closet that are worn out or are no more in fad. Remember, old memories are sweet but old stuff in the home is not. So, go and get rid of them as soon as you can.

2. Repair and renovate home furniture: Though you can afford it, it is not a wise idea to stack up a lot of furniture items in your home as it renders a cluttered look. So instead of buying brand new furniture, repair and renovate the old ones. You can take the help of an expert to change the old look and design of existing furniture items and do renovations with a touch of creativity.

3. Go for a new paint: It’s always a smart idea to go for a new paint which will not only provide a change of look but will also provide a chance to clean up every nook and corner of the home. You can do so right before a festival. For instance, house paint and renovation during Diwali is quite a trend in Indian homes.

4. Make the most of vertical spaces in your home: Vertical spaces in your home such as the back of doors, ceilings, and walls can be utilized as store rooms or closets. For this, you need to look beyond your existing furniture and built-ins and come up with creative solutions to use your wall space. For instance, a rack of pots and pans hanging from the ceiling is not a bad idea to avoid that congested and unorganized cabinet in your kitchen. All in all, this will also provide a chic look to your kitchen.

5. Keep the counters clear: Clearing the counter is one of the smartest ever ways to remove clutter from your home. Make sure that you use an empty bin or basket to clear the counters and provide a clean look to your house.
