The ALL-YEAR-ROUND job of DECLUTTERING and CLEANING our homes is daunting. Especially for those of us who HOARD, or struggle with depression, and decisions, anxiety & other MI. I'm so challenged in this way so reaching out for support. Maybe start an Declutterers Army 💪
If you suffer the same challenge or have some great suggestions - type away... 💙💜💙💜💙💜💙

I can relate to that @Former-Member, drives my darling crazy when I loose interest in an area and move on to the next.
On reflection it is probably more when I have to start making decisions about what to keep or toss that it gets too hard and I move on rather than loosing interest.
I was supposed to tackle our office today but saved by an unexpected shift at work for some training.

Maybe a mixture of both @Former-Member ? Black ones at the bottom for big (maybe singular ?) items, labelled, then clear ones on top, also labelled, but you can also see things that you’re looking for .... and likely to be lots of smaller stuff in those.

I cleaned out all my mum`s kitchen cupboards @Faith-and-Hope, @Former-Member, @Determined, but do you think I can even get the energy to do my own

@Former-Member I am laughing-crying!! 
Do you know how long I researched shoe racks to find the perfect one that maximises space and accomodate many pairs?? It took me way...too...long....
Sorry to interrupt everyone, I just needed to shoutout about that picture!
