Reinvent or Get Rid of Clutter

Look at that mess and think to yourself, what do I really use? Dennis said getting rid of clutter can ultimately eliminate fire hazards but also make us feel a lot lighter.

“An important key to this is thinking like your grandparents,” Dennis said. “They made due with what they had and so can we.”

Get creative and think about how you can reuse something but if the item really serves no purpose for you anymore Dennis recommends donating or recycling it.

Dennis advises a homeowner to really think about what they are buying.

“If you are going to buy something new for your home, make sure it’s durable and you really love it,” Dennis said. “Don’t buy anything you don’t need or could be shoved into a corner a month later.”
