Sentimental Clutter – top tips to organizing yours

What is sentimental clutter?

You know the kind of items that you do not use, love or need. They were given to you by your Grandma or mother-in-law. Is it okay to put those two ladies in the same sentence? I guess that all depends on your relationship with your husbands mother! Funny how mother-in-laws get such a bad rap. We are not all created equal.

Whether an item is sentimental or not if you are not using it and it is taking up space it becomes clutter. Why not pass these items on to someone who will use them. You can always take a picture of it before passing it on.

Check out this short video on Sentimental Clutter.

Have you got photos all over the house?

Do you know who is in the photos?

Do you know where the photos was taken?

Are some in boxes,some in frames and some on your computer?

Check out this short video on organizing your photos.

I’ll bet you’ll get excited about some of the tips.

I know of people who take hundreds of digital pictures and then print them.

Do you feel this is double duty? Please leave your comments in the box below.

I think it is better to either have hard copies and not have copies on your computer or have copies on your computer and not hard copies.

The key question to ask yourself is ” who gets pleasure from seeing my photos?” Sad to say but most people take less than 7 minutes looking at their travel pictures. Who will want all your pictures when you are gone?

So, be mindful of the number of pictures you take.

Take time after a vacation or family event organizing your photos. If you do not take the time right away you probably will not do it. You will then end up with boxes of photos or a memory card that is full to the brim.

Still feeling overwhelmed with the volume of photos you have?

Telephone Manners

Where have all the telephone manners gone?

Do you think it is something that should be taught at school?

I’d love to hear your opinion in the comment box below once you have watched this short video on telephone manners.

How do you like being put on hold……especially if you call a friend? How do you like it when you are out with a friend and they start talking on their cell phone? How do you like it when you are in a public place and several people are talking on their cell phones?

Who is everyone talking to anyway?

Let’s all work together to teach young people telephone manners.

Well it is not just the young people is it?
