    Get Rid of Clutter if You’re Working At Home

    If I worked at home all the time, the distraction caused by my sometimes cluttered house would be too much for me to concentrate.  I’m thankful to have an office to escape to on most days!  However, if you had no choice, perhaps these tips from Brip Blap will help you de-clutter.

    • Stuff packed away in boxes is not sentimental. I have a couple of keepsakes, knickknacks, doodads, etc. I have my Star Wars baseball-style cards from my childhood. They are in a box in the garage.
    • Take pictures. If there’s something you don’t need, but you want to remember it, take a picture. Put it in a screensaver. You’ll see it, the memory will trigger but you’ll still have less clutter.

    Steve has lots more great tips, so go pay him a visit.
