Dear Walters Wife,
I'm always struggling with the clutter in my home. Do you have any suggestions for keeping things neat? Clutter bug
Dear Clutter bug,
This is a struggle that many Mom's have. We begin with just the two of you and along comes baby with more "necessities" than one can imagine. First realize the size of the space you live in. It can only hold so much. If you have a place for everything to "live" it will be much easier to keep your home in order by simply returning things to their "home space".
For daily decluttering, I use a laundry basket. I begin in the kitchen and put everything that doesn't belong in the kitchen in that basket. I move to the dining room and take out of the basket what goes in the dining room while collecting other things in the dining room that don't belong in that room. I move to the bedroom and do the same. Continue through the house until you wind up back in the kitchen with an empty basket. In no time at all you will find a decluttered space to live in.

Thats a great suggestion with the laundry basket, I think it might actually help me as well.
I find it really neat and would love to sign up for Perdue's extended courses classes, they have one on couponing and one on decluttering! I could so use the deccluttering tips. :)
