January 24, 2025

PronounsShe/her
Please provide details.Email from Clutter Fairy! 🙂
If you shop in thrift stores, resale shops, charity stores, pawn shops, or other sources of second-hand goods, what kinds of things do you look for? Are there any categories of items that you would ONLY buy used? Any categories of items that you would NEVER buy used?Stuff I will buy: Jeans. Pants for my father-in-law. pots and pans. Holiday decor.
If you’ve ever completed a major decluttering project, have you experienced re-cluttering anxiety afterwards? Please describe your experience and how you’ve tried to manage this feeling.I cleaned out my last "Catch All" room in Sept 2021.
I was VERY worried that I would just re-clutter it... because I always had!!!

I belong to Take Your House Back and posted Before and After photos every DAY for a while. And then I went to weekly photos and then monthly. Now I feel confident that I've made enough change, that I post photos 3 times a year.

The room has stayed neat, tidy and decluttered for over two years! Yay me!
How often do you deep-clean your kitchen, going above and beyond whatever daily or several-time-a-week routines you maintain?At least once a month
What routines or habits have been useful to ensure that your kitchen is always clean?Doing the dishes. Every. Single. Day. I used to do the dishes once or twice a month and the dishes would pile up past the faucet!

I wipe the counters almost every day, but I miss days. Same with the floor.

I wipe the baseboards and cabinet doors and walls as I see spills or every couple of months.

I take everything out of the pantry and wipe that down once a year.
