Organizing your house is not your forte because you don't even know where to start?

Then we have ten practical tips for you.

When the words "clean up" * and "sort out", an ice-cold shiver runs down the spine of many.

Ultimately, they are activities that hardly anyone enjoys.

And yet the chaos can quickly get on our nerves.

However, once you have motivated yourself to invest time in mucking out and rearranging, you will not regret it.

On the contrary

: as soon as we have completed all the tasks we have set, we are usually rewarded with a good feeling.

Keeping your house tidy: ten tips

But what do you have to consider when tidying up and how can we create space?

We have summarized ten tips for you below that could answer these questions:

  • Hardly anyone has fun sorting out their own wardrobe.

    But maybe you are motivated by the thought

    that you can sell a lot of clothes for cash

    .

    Sorting out has two advantages: You create space and you can top up your account at the same time.

  • The principle of

    “sell instead of keep” also

    applies in the kitchen: there, large kitchen appliances often take up a lot of space.

    Just ask yourself whether you really need a mixer, bread maker, etc.

    If not, you can leave.

  • Many kitchens often offer a lot of storage space thanks to large cupboards and small secret compartments.

    Take advantage of this and put everything a little closer together

    to create even more space.

  • A lot of beauty or hygiene products can accumulate very quickly in the bathroom.

    In this case, too, it is advisable to ask yourself

    what we really need from it

    .

    You can, for example, banish ancient packaging that is already almost empty in the trash can.

  • Do you like to throw worn clothes on the bed or even on the floor?

    There doesn't have to be that much clutter:

    Invest some money in a

    laundry basket (promotional link) that you can toss all items of clothing in before washing.

    Incidentally, these are available in a wide variety of colors, shapes and materials, so you can easily find a model that fits your interior.

  • If you have a desk with lots of drawers, you are often tempted to fill the space with a lot of paperwork and loads of office utensils.

    Usually we don't need a lot of it.

    Take the time to throw away the unnecessary and create new space

    .

  • Speaking of paperwork: It is worthwhile to store certain documents immediately in designated folders instead of randomly stowing them in drawers.

    Sort important papers by alphabet or by date

    .

    You will be grateful for it as soon as you absolutely need to find certain documents.

  • Storage rooms are mostly used for food supplies.

    At the same time, you can also use it to store large items

    that just don't look good in the bedroom or living room.

    These include, for example, the ironing board or packaged devices that are rarely used.

  • Anyone who packs everything from normal clothing to winter jackets in the closet could at some point have to struggle with space problems.

    Often we have a few free spaces in the corridors for coat hooks or even another closet

    .

    All of this is perfect for storing jackets, gloves and hats.

  • When buying furniture, be sure to choose beds, sofas and cabinets with plenty of storage space

    .

    This gives you more space for items lying around.
