7 Easy Habits to Keep Your Home Clean and Clutter-Free

Tuesday, June 27, 2023 | By: Grateful Heart Living

A clean and clutter-free home not only looks beautiful but also gives us a peaceful and more healthy environment. However, maintaining this can often seem like an impossible task, especially if you have a busy schedule. Thankfully, by developing a few simple habits, we can keep our homes clean and organized without sacrificing our precious time. I put together seven easy habits to keep your home clean and clutter-free.

7 Habits for a Clean Home

1. Make your bed every morning:

Making your bed is a quick and easy task that instantly makes your room look neater. A well-made bed also sets a positive tone for the rest of the day and helps you maintain a clean mindset.
 
2. Take care of dishes daily:
Leaving dishes in the sink can quickly lead to a cluttered and messy kitchen. Make sure to wash any dirty dishes or place them in the dishwasher as soon as possible. This habit will keep your kitchen looking neat, and you'll have clean dishes ready to use the next day.
 
3. Deal with mail immediately:
Mail is notorious for piling up and creating unnecessary clutter around the house. Take a few minutes every day to go through your mail, sorting it into categories such as bills, important papers, and junk mail. Discard the junk mail immediately and file the important documents away.
 
4. Put things back in their designated place:
One of the easiest ways to keep your home clutter-free is to make sure that everything has a designated place. When you use something, be sure to put it back where it belongs immediately. This way, you'll avoid leaving things out of place and cluttering up your home.
 
5. Clean as you go:
Try to develop a habit of cleaning up as you go, particularly when cooking or performing tasks that require materials. Wipe down counters, sweep floors, and wash dishes as you go. You'll find that this saves you time in the long run and keeps your home tidy and organized.
 
6. Create a cleaning schedule:
If you have a busy schedule, it's helpful to create a cleaning schedule that works for you. Assign certain cleaning tasks to specific days, such as vacuuming on Mondays or cleaning the bathrooms on Wednesdays. This habit will make cleaning feel more manageable, and you'll avoid having to tackle everything at once.
 
7. Declutter regularly:
Finally, regularly decluttering your home is essential for maintaining a clean and clutter-free environment. Go through your belongings every few months, disposing of items you no longer need. This habit will help you avoid accumulating too much clutter over time.

Keeping your home clean and clutter-free doesn't have to be a difficult task. By developing these seven simple habits, you'll be well on your way to creating a peaceful and organized home. Start implementing them today, and enjoy the benefits of a tidy living space. Start with one simple task and create a habit and then add another. Start where you are work your way up to more tasks. You can do this!
