Let’s have a look at some of them below:
Look At The Storage In Your Home
The storage in your home can have a massive impact on how tidy it is. If you find that your home is always feeling cluttered it could be because you have a lack of storage options. Newer homes tend to have more storage in them, however, nothing is saying you can’t add additional storage to your home at any point. It’s all about using the space you have properly. Have a look at your storage cupboards and make sure you are using all the space from the top to the bottom. Use any space you have under your beds and think about using storage in places such as your living room with the use of storage tables or boxes.
Look At The Clutter
If your home still looks untidy it could be because it is cluttered. Although it is great to have memories kept with trinkets and pictures, if you want to have a tidier-looking home, you need to try and keep it minimal. This doesn’t mean you can’t get all your keepsakes out, it’s more about rotating them and keeping your ornaments to a minimum. It could also be that you do have too many belongings, and it’s time for you to start sorting through what you can donate to charity.
Think About Kids Toys
If you have kids, you will likely already be well aware that they have a lot of belongings and it can impact the way that your home looks and feels. If you want to make sure that your home feels tidy try to reduce the amount of toys you have in the family spaces. Make use of storage boxes and children’s bedrooms for the larger toys and only bring a few toys out at a time. Children learn better this way too, so you get benefits.
Think About Your Windows
You may think that your windows wouldn’t make a difference to how tidy your home looks, however, if you dress your windows wrong they can make your home look unkempt and untidy. You need to think about how you dress your windows as they can also be seen from outside your home. Made to measure blinds are a brilliant way to improve the look of your home and make it look like a tidy and welcoming home. Although they may be a bit more of an expensive option, you will find that they last longer and are worth the investment.
These tips should help you to get your home looking and feeling tidier in no time. Do you have any other tips that you think would help? Please share them in the comments below.
