精简生活小招

Tackle clutter in the rooms of your home

收拾房间


An easy way to figure out what constitutes clutter in a room is simply what doesn't belong or doesn't add value to a particular room.

轻松搞定房间杂乱的办法就是弄清哪些物品不该放在某个房间,或对某个房间毫无用处。

It could also be anything that is an eyesore, or that makes you grit your teeth or turn your eyes the other way when you come across it! Take a look at the different rooms of your home.

这类物品会让你觉得碍手碍脚,看见了也会觉得很不顺眼!仔细检查家中的各大房间。

What doesn't belong? What items should be processed and taken care of? Common household clutter includes items such as unopened mail, junk mail, old magazines, books, receipts, bags filled with recycling materials and the like.

哪些很不协调?哪些应该多加保管?通常家庭杂物中都有未拆信件、垃圾邮件、旧杂志、书籍、菜谱、塞满废旧物品的袋子之类的东西。
