Supposedly, a new year offers the perfect chance to reset your home and rid it of the clutter that’s no longer serving you.

Well, maybe it’s time to consider a purge party.

You probably don’t need me to tell you that there are so many decluttering methods out there, many of them coined by professional organisers and even psychologists. But sometimes, it’s the decluttering trends on social media that spark something in you and give you the push you need to get the job done - and I have a feeling that this latest social media storm will do just that.
