Want less?

February 1, 2026/0 Comments/in Tip of the Month/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

Don’t make room for more if you want to have less. It’s tempting to buy more bins, baskets, and organizing gadgets, but more containers often lead to more clutter. If your goal is to simplify, start by reducing what you own rather than creating new places to store stuff.

The best organizing tool is less stuff.
