Bye Bye Clutter: Home Organizational Tips
With Marie Kondo’s philosophy of “sparking joy” and the jump into summer, the time to cut clutter is ever present. “Clutter-free” are the two most beautiful words in the English language. Why not try these tips to help you tackle the mess? Spruce up your living space — one room at a time!
The Living Room
Start off in the living room, to get a clear-eyed view of your clutter and how it impacts your everyday life.
- Consolidate all of your electronics in one custom cabinet and use linen panels to conceal the television when it’s not in use.
- For bigger necessities, a three-tiered vertical basket is ideal for grouping bottles, brushes, and rolls of toilet paper.
The Office
A cluttered desk often reflects a cluttered mind. Clear it and you’ll feel more at ease to be creative, productive, and to fly through that to-do list.
- To get started, tackle those piles of paperwork. Organize receipts, lists, and other items in a notebook that can accommodate papers of different sizes. You can also scan them in for storage on an electronic device in order to preserve them digitally.

Powered by the revolutionary new technology platform GVNG, the TwainMania Foundation was founded by Val Kilmer with the sole mission to use art and education as a means to inspire people from all walks of life on what it means to be an American, utilizing the legacy and lessons of prolific author Mark Twain.
“Mark Twain can teach people today by applying a critical thinking lens to problems in our society, and by always asking the tough and probing questions in order to make collective progress for America and our communities,” said Kilmer. “I believe Americans can be the best version of themselves by instituting the lessons and historical teachings of Twain.”
The concept of TwainMania Foundation was born out of HELMEL Studios, and in such will be teaming up with the creative arts space to offer art exhibits, installations, films, plays and performance pieces that promote social good as well as provide a place for community members to exhibit art.
