Weekly Tittle

The Weekly Tittle is an exercise designed to focus your attention on a specific space, aspect, or challenge of decluttering and organizing your home. We assign a new tittle in each webcast/podcast, then check on your progress the following week.

Deck the Halls—Only Less

This week’s assignment is to assess your collection of fall and winter holiday decorations with a view toward creating a simple and uncluttered display:

  • Which items are ready to be retired? Discard any decor that’s outlived its usefulness.
  • Which decorations do you really love? It’s time to let go of anything that no longer fits your tastes.
  • Consider how much space you realistically need or want to decorate. Remove or reduce duplicates and spares from your collection.
  • Resist the urge to buy anything new. Surely your lifetime collection is fabulous enough already!
