Can you believe we are in 2022?! 2021 feels like both the shortest and the longest year at the same time, am I right?
To me, the new year feels like the perfect time for a fresh start, but the thought of all the projects you want to tackle can feel overwhelming. That’s why we’ve come up with our January Challenge.
The Simplify January Challenge
It’s time to de-clutter and simplify your home in 2022! We don’t want this challenge to feel overwhelming. Instead, we’ve come up with simple tasks and tips that you can implement throughout the month. We’re talking less than 5 minutes per day. Plus, we will be sharing a ton of tips, products we swear by, and inspo for you to use in your own home. By the end of the month, you will feel SO accomplished with much less clutter!
All of our tips, tricks, and inspo will be shared on instagram @simplify_in_style so make sure to follow along.

Week 1: Toys + Playroom
After the holidays, a lot of new toys have entered your home. It’s time to edit + set yourself up for success for the rest of the year! One of the first tasks is simple, yet so effective! Take 1 white trash bag and 1 black trash bag. Go around your home/play area and fill the white bag with 10 pieces of trash and the black bag with 10 donation items. Viola! Your home will feel less cluttered in minutes! Follow us on Instagram @simplify_in_style for more tips, tricks, and donation resources.
Week 2: Kitchen + Pantry
It’s time to think about where you really use your kitchen items + get rid of those spices from 2011. We will discuss creating zones in your kitchen (do you love to bake? keep all of your baking items together and stored where you actually use them) and getting rid of old/expired items. Plus, there are SO many options when it comes to organization products for your kitchen. How do you decide which is right for you? We will share all of that and more @simplify_in_style.
Week 3: closets
Let’s tackle ALL your closets. Does that sound overwhelming? Don’t worry. We break it down to simple things you can do to clean up your closets in minimal time. One of our favorite tips is simple: create baskets for donations (clothes that are too small) and grow into (clothes that are too big). This way, you can easily remove clothing as your kids outgrow them.
Week 4: bathroom + office
Our bathrooms and offices can be places where we hold onto a lot of things we should just let go of – like expired make-up or the bills you already paid months ago. It’s time to de-clutter and set yourself up for success!
Remember: don’t be overwhelmed. Even if you just spend 5 minutes a day in January focused on de-cluttering and organizing, you will notice a huge difference in your home! LET’S DO THIS!
