    475: Container Concept and Creativity

    I’m answering your decluttering questions that were submitted at AskDanaKWhite.comHow do you apply the container concept for certain items that some people would tie/fold and others would let loose such as cables and linens? I just feel frozen and I don't know how to decide what to tackle first. What are some suggestions to help my mind move forward?How do I deal with decluttering under my daughter's bed, where you can't as easily see what is there?How do you work with family members who get mad when you ask where they'd look for something first? My husband and both kids (9 and 6) HATE this question.How do I figure out how to get things out that are A) still good, B) useful in this current season, and C) not necessarily something I have too much of?Any tips for when the issue is actually getting things out of the house? I live in Europe without a car and am limited to 30L of trash per week for my family of six. aslobcomesclean.com/janeMy books My YouTube Channel!Want to be a patron of the show?
