076: Declutter your Home with the Shoebox Method

Like a slow + steady approach to decluttering? Me too. The Shoebox Method is a stress-free way to minimize that - when done right! - will keep your home tidied for good. Here's a step by step guide for you to follow as you seek to declutter once and for all.

Do you desire to declutter your home but find yourself worried about making an even *bigger* mess?

I hear that.

If a slow + steady approach to, well, EVERYthing appeals to you, you’ll love the Shoebox Method’s incremental take on minimalism.

My guest this week is Dionne Myhre. She’s a lifelong lover of organization; she’s a blogger who helps women find peace in tidied simplicity, too. She’s here to outline her Shoebox Method so that you, too, can declutter your home in a way that’s attainable for the organizationally-minded, the organizationally-challenged + everyone in between.

Enjoy!
