The Clutter Free Home: Making Room For Your Life
When it comes to your home, peace is possible…
Longing for a place of peace from which you can love others well? The Clutter-Free Home is your room-by-room guide to decluttering, reclaiming, and celebrating every space of your home.
Let author Kathi Lipp (who once lived a life buried in clutter) walk you through each room of your house to create organizational zones that are not only functional and practical but create places of peace that reflect your personality. Kathi will help you tackle the four-step process of dedicate, decide, declutter and “do-your-thing” to reveal the home you’ve always dreamed of, and then transform it into a haven that reflects who you truly are meant to be.

I adopted my friend’s routine: everyone puts away their own clothes !
I love renaming household chores. It honestly gets me and my sons more excited about chores when I say, ” Time for the ‘Dish Dance'” and we start the hot water and turn up some funky tunes. We also have the Bathroom Boogie, Window Waltz, Clean Car Craziness, Vac Attack, and Platter Scatter. Kathi’s Spa name for the bathroom cleanup definitely soothes my soul. I will be borrowing that one! ?
