I haven’t even gotten to Day 2 of the NYT Declutter Challenge. After I took everything out from under my sink, I decided to buy some shelf liner to spruce up the bottom of the cabinet that has seen years of use without protection. There are bubbles and places where water has been.

Back in March, the NYT Wirecutter launched a six-day decluttering challenge. I love Wirecutter and can spend hours going down rabbit holes about the best vacuum cleaners, clothes hangers, pots and pans, dish soap, towels - you get the idea. I get a lot of great advice from their posts, so I’m definitely going to do the six-day challenge. Even as a tidying expert, I can always learn new things.
