2025
New Year New You Reset Challenge
Welcome to 2025! A new year means fresh starts, and what better way to kick things off than transforming your living space? This year, we’re diving into a “New Year, New You Reset Challenge” designed to help you organize your home in just 30 days. Whether you’re tackling the chaos of kitchen drawers, battling paper piles, or looking to finally conquer your digital files, this challenge will equip you with practical storage solutions, eco-friendly tips, and a clear path to creating the home you’ve always dreamed of.
Let’s get started, step by step, so you can achieve a clutter-free, functional, and peaceful space!
Why Start with Your Home?
Your environment plays a huge role in your mindset. A cluttered home often translates to a cluttered mind. When your space is organized, you’ll feel lighter, more focused, and ready to tackle your goals for the year. Trust me—I’ve been there! Last January, I found myself frantically searching for my favorite sweater buried in a mountain of “clean laundry.” It was a wake-up call to finally simplify and create a system that works.
Week-by-Week Breakdown
Week 1: Micro Decluttering (10 Minutes a Day)
Start small to build momentum. Each day, choose one area to declutter for just 10 minutes:
Monday: Tidy your junk drawer.
Tuesday: Purge expired items from your fridge and pantry.
Wednesday: Sort through makeup or toiletries.
Thursday: Tackle a single bookshelf.
Friday: Organize your wallet and purse.
Saturday: Declutter your bedside table.
Sunday: Relax! Reflect on your progress.
Pro Tip: Keep a donation box handy for items you no longer need, and commit to dropping it off at the end of the week.
Week 2: Practical Storage Solutions
Now that you’ve cleared some clutter, it’s time to create homes for your belongings.
Invest in versatile storage furniture: Think ottomans with hidden compartments, stackable bins, or under-bed storage.
Label everything: It sounds simple, but clear labels can save you hours of searching.
Use vertical space: Floating shelves, hooks, and over-the-door organizers are lifesavers in small spaces.
When I organized my hall closet last year, I added stackable bins for scarves and gloves—it’s made grabbing winter gear a breeze.
Week 3: Eco-Friendly Organizing Products
Organizing doesn’t have to mean buying loads of plastic bins. Opt for eco-friendly alternatives:
Bamboo drawer organizers
Recycled fabric baskets
Glass jars for pantry staples
Compostable trash bags
You’d be amazed at how many sustainable products are out there. One of my favorite finds was a set of reusable, collapsible fabric bins for my kids’ toys—functional, stylish, and good for the planet!
Week 4: Digital Decluttering & Tech Integration
Clutter isn’t just physical—it’s digital, too. Dedicate this week to tidying up your devices and using tech to stay organized.
Organize your inbox: Unsubscribe from emails you never read and create folders for important messages.
Declutter your phone: Delete unused apps and organize your home screen.
Use tech tools: Apps like Trello or Notion can help you manage tasks, shopping lists, and household projects.
Smart home solutions: Consider setting up a smart speaker or using smart plugs to streamline your routines.
