with Roger and Kathi
Part 2
Kathi and Roger are back to conclude their great remodel survivor story and give us the secrets to their survival. In part one they shared their first three major tips for decluttering, preparing, and navigating a remodel well. This week they are sharing their list of must-have supplies as well as their remaining tips including:
- Take before pictures
- Use up your stuff
- Have a five percent buffer
Remodels are stressful, but with a little bit of patience and a good plan, it’s possible to survive with both your sanity and your relationship intact.
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.
