HOUSTON – Is your home feeling a bit chaotic?
Maybe your kitchen drawer is bursting with an ever-growing collection of utensils.
Or have a pile of accessories that seems to take over a corner of your closet.
Maintaining a tidy home can feel like an uphill battle, but worry not. You’re definitely not alone in this!
Organizational expert Brooke Rives, the brilliant mind behind her Dwell Well Organizational Services, shares her top secrets to conquering clutter.
Rives suggests starting small. Instead of overwhelming yourself by pulling everything out at once, tackle your household items and clothes in manageable sections.
As you’re sorting, don’t be afraid to part with broken, outdated, and excessive things. Once you clear out the unnecessary items, it’ll be much easier to find the perfect spot for your useful and wanted objects.
Curious about how she makes it all happen? Check out the video above, where Brooke dives deep into her go-to products that keep her and her clients’ spaces organized.
If you’re ready to sprinkle some organization magic into your own home, keep scrolling for her carefully curated list of must-haves! Many of the recommended items are magnetized to hold items together for easy access. (Note: Rives earns a commission on these products.)
