After a hiatus in 2022, my January Junk Out Jamboree is in full swing. Believe me, I can tell that I took a year off of the deep cleaning and organization.
I made a list of 31 areas to clean, purge and organize. I find doing it this way is so much more manageable and motivating. I don’t necessarily go in order. Instead, I pick a task – big or small – that can reasonably be accomplished with whatever other commitments I have that day. My list goes into my notebook that never leaves my sight.
Here is my 2023 list:
- garage shelf and lockers
- garage closets and repaint door
- mudroom
- kitchen cabinets and touch up paint
- kitchen pantry
- kitchen lights (basically dust and clean the bulbs) and oven
- polish copper pots
- hall closet
- den baskets and lights
- dining room light
- polish silver
- living room cabinets and desk
- office closet
- office drawers and cabinets
- porch
- john’s closet and clean all bedding
- john’s drawers and desk
- whit’s closet and clean all bedding
- whit’s drawers and desk
- guest room closet
- guest room drawers and armoire
- master closet
- master drawers and clean all bedding
- fridge in kitchen and garage
- master bath and refill toiletries
- boy’s bath and refill toiletries
- guest bath cabinets
- laundry room
- basement cabinets
- powder room
- my car and purse
Do you do an annual cleaning challenge like this? I used to do mine at lent, but was motivated to start in January a while back and loved getting off on a fresh, clean start!
