THE ULTIMATE DECLUTTER CHALLENGE

Let’s be honest: clutter has a sneaky way of piling up before you even notice.

And without a solid, organised system, it can quickly spiral out of control.

But here’s the good news — there’s a simple and effective solution that’s as straightforward as it sounds: The 50 things in 50 minutes challenge.

Ready to declutter? Let’s go!

The idea is simple; in just 50 minutes, you’ll find and toss 50 items that no longer serve a purpose in your life.

While throwing out 50 things might seem daunting at first, it’s easier than you think.

Here’s how you can make it happen:

Start small: Do you have a jar overflowing with pens? Get rid of a couple that don’t work.

Outdated medicine: Check your medicine cabinet for expired medications and dispose of them properly.

Socks and paperwork: Sort through your sock drawer and toss out the lonely, mismatched ones. Got a pile of old bills? Shred them.

Wardrobe overhaul: If you have clothes that don’t fit or haven’t been worn in years, let them go.

Toys and gadgets: Broken toys, outdated chargers, or unused kitchen gadgets — time to say goodbye.

Linen and towels: Old, frayed towels or bed linens? If they’ve lost their fluff, it’s time to let them go.

Craft supplies: Dried-out Play-Doh or unused craft materials are just taking up space.

Make it fun: Set a timer for 50 minutes, clear a space where you can pile up the items, and get ready to declutter. You’ll be amazed at how much you can accomplish in a short amount of time. And don’t worry—if something is still usable, consider donating it to someone in need.

Repeat for success: To maintain a clutter-free home, repeat this challenge every few weeks. By setting good boundaries and regularly clearing out the excess, you’ll create a more organised and peaceful living space.

So, what are you waiting for? Set that timer, and let the decluttering begin!

Good luck.
