Ready to see some changes? You’re on to Day 4 of our Clutter Clean Out program. Yesterday you learned some different ways to reduce clutter. Today you're going to make some headway in de-cluttering. Embrace the experience and it will empower and free you. Relax, take a deep breath and get started. You are powerful and you can do this!
We're going to start with an important room, the entry. You may or may not have a lot of clutter. This should be a fairly easy start emotionally. Talk about it in the group.
Don't forget! Keep sharing your photos in our Facebook page.

| The Entry
The entry is not a gathering place, but it is important because this is the first impression of your home.Your entry should facilitate the flow of people and storage of items.
Make a list of everything that you want to store as you enter your home and then we can decide what you need for storage.
This space, in particular, should be clutter free for safety purposes.Removing shoes as you enter the home is appropriate in some cultures.
It is also a good health practice to get into so you do not carry the pollutants, pesticides, germs or chemicals and transfer from your shoes to your home.
One thing I consider a necessity for all foyers is a seat so you or your guests can safely and comfortably remove their shoes. If you have space, a chair or bench would be perfect, and then an attractive place designated for shoes.
