What\u2019s the secret to keeping your sleeping space peaceful and serene? According to these decluttering experts, there are 7 things they would never let through the bedroom door.\n

1. Bills And Other Paperwork\n

 \n

To create a haven where you can fall asleep easily, keep anything related to work or life admin at a desk in another room.\n

\u201cI never have paperwork or my computer in the bedroom,\u201d says Sally Walford (declutterme.london), decluttering expert and author of The Declutter Monster. \u201cI need to relax, and be in a calm environment.\u201d\n

2. Technology\n

Try to make your bedroom a screen-free zone. \u201cThey emit blue light and EMFs, and are work or play equipment so should be kept in a work or play area,\u201d advises decluttering expert Helen Sanderson (helensanderson.com).\n

She adds: \u201cThe only technology I have in my bedroom is a stereo for nice relaxing music. If you have your phone or tablet in the bedroom, try to use it in the night light setting, and give yourself a switch-off curfew an hour before you go to sleep.\u201d\n

3. Bedside Table Clutter\n

We know how easy it is for that little nightstand to become covered with empty glasses and hairbands, but be ruthless and try to clear away anything unneeded daily.\n

\u201cI only have what I need near me so that I can switch off from the world and get a good night\u2019s sleep,\u201d adds Sally. \u201cA decluttered bedroom gives peace of mind.\u201d\n

4. Items Under The Bed\n

Decluttering expert Vicky Silverthorn (younneedavicky.com) says that drawers and boxes under the bed are a no-go for her. \u201cI sleep better knowing there is clarity and a clear space below,\u201d she explains. \u201cSo I purposely ordered a bed with no storage under it.\n

\u201cMy advice would be to only store items under the bed if it is a simple category and is simply organized, such as your seasonal clothing or items you only wear on your holidays.\u201d\n

5. Piles Of Clothes\n

\u201cIf you have an early start the next morning, you’ll feel calmer if you have chosen your outfit and accessories,\u201d says Beverly Wade, decluttering expert at Cluttergone (cluttergone.co.uk).\n

This means no clothes hanging over the bed or on a chair. \u201cPut the clean clothes away straight away, put dirty ones in the laundry and ones being worn on a chair if you must \u2013 but only a few,\u201d says Vicky.\n

6. Unwanted Cosmetics And Products\n

\u201cIn my experience, we all have our favorite make-up and things we use, plus a few extras for special occasions, but the rest is just clutter,\u201d says Helen.\n

\u201cI did have a client once who had a store cupboard of supplies, but it was very contained and orderly. I wouldn\u2019t recommend having this in the bedroom.\u201d\n

Go through all your products and if you haven\u2019t used something in six months, chuck it.\n

7. Books\n

Other than the one or two that you\u2019re currently reading, that is. Helen warns that not putting them back on a shelf (or giving them away) after you\u2019ve finished can easily lead to them piling up.\n

\u201cDon\u2019t leave piles of unfinished business to gather dust,\u201d she says.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
