DEE CLUTTER - Hmmm. I have no where to put this!!!

deeclutter.caLast week I discussed in order to keep your home clutter free - EVERYTHING NEEDS A HOME.
But what to do if you find an item and it has no home, there is no where to put this item away in your house, there is no room for this item with other things, it just isn't fitting, your finding yourself shoving it in a closet because you don't know what else to do with it!

DO YOU NEED IT!? IS IT GOING TO BE USED ANYTIME SOON!?  DO YOU EVEN LIKE IT!?

I don't care what the item is...the previous questions need to be answered and if the answer is NO - GET RID OF IT!!! Donate the item to charity, give it to family, sell it or if need be...throw it out!

Here are some examples that everyone should be able to relate to:

1.  Baby clothes - if your child or children is walking- why oh why do you have baby clothes in your house??
2.  Paperwork - old bills, old warranties, old bank statements, etc...if these are out of date, been paid, you have reviewed them...guess what, YOU DON"T NEED THEM!! they are simply taking up space in your home.
3. Ugly knick knacks/gifts - everyone has these.  they are items that Aunt Mary gave you, items that you don't even like but for some reason they are decorating your home...Give them away for someone else to deal with!!!  Why oh why would you want them in your home.
4. Think about this...how many pens, pencils, scissors, elastics, take-out menus, little broken items that you don't even know what they are and tacks do you need in the junk drawer!!!!  CLEAR OUT THE JUNK DRAWER!!!!!

You all know that each one of you has items in your home that you don't use, you don't like, and you don't need...Take a deep breathe and GET THEM OUT OF YOUR HOME!!!
