New Year's Resolutions for Your Home

Below is the start of a list of where to begin with keeping up with your home for the new year! Also, be sure to use my monthly home maintenance tips!

1 DECLUTTERING YOUR HOME Details To keep yourself on track, get started now and schedule a time to spend organizing, sorting through piles of clothes and papers, and removing unwanted items from your home. Details

2 PLANNING A ROOM RENOVATION If you've been planning on any larger projects in your home, this is the perfect time to start planning and executing. Make sure to allocate plenty of time and proper budgeting. for contractors.

3 PUTTING HOLIDAY DECORATIONS AWAY EARLY It's not necessarily the "when" of putting the holiday decorations away, it's more about the how. Have a specific space and storage bins that make it easy to both put-away and bring out so it never becomes a mountain of a task.

4 TACKLING LITTLE PROJECTS You may not have even thought to pull that ever-growing list of little home improvement projects over to your New Year's resolutions list, but with the right planning, you have opportunity to cross it all off at once. Get it all together ARD ESS out and execute all in a day.

5 ORGANIZING A SPECIFIC SPACE Look at what you're keeping in the room, establish a plan for what will stay there, then measure and research storage options for the best system to keep those items organized and in place.
