Fall Decluttering: Creating a Calm, Organized Home for the Holidays

There’s something about fall in Michigan that makes home feel even cozier. The crisp air, changing leaves, and anticipation of the holiday season often lead to a desire to tidy up and create a peaceful space. As the holidays approach, many of us start to feel that familiar pressure to get everything in order before guests arrive and life gets busier. This is where a little fall decluttering and home organization can work wonders—not just for your home, but for your peace of mind.

Why Fall Decluttering Feels So Right


As the seasons change, it’s natural to want your home to feel just as refreshed as the air outside. During fall, many of us begin to swap out summer clothes, bring out cozy sweaters, and prepare our kitchens for comforting meals. But it’s not just about the things we bring in; it’s about making space for what matters.


Taking some time to organize your home this fall doesn’t just make things look nice—it can make life feel easier. Having a clutter-free entryway when you walk in the door, a well-organized closet where you can easily find your favorite fall sweater, or a tidy kitchen ready for holiday baking—these small shifts can bring a sense of calm amidst the busyness of life.


Simple Areas to Tackle This Fall


  • Entryway: This is often a catch-all spot for shoes, bags, and coats. It’s also the first thing you see when you come home. Organizing your entryway can instantly make your home feel more welcoming.

  • Closet: Fall is a great time to rotate your wardrobe. Bring your favorite cold-weather pieces forward, and consider donating or storing summer items you no longer need.

  • Kitchen: With the holidays coming, this is the perfect time to declutter your kitchen. Clear out expired pantry items, organize utensils, and make space for baking supplies. A tidy kitchen means less stress when the cooking frenzy begins.

  • Living Room: This is where everyone gathers, especially during fall movie nights or holiday parties. Decluttering and creating a cozy, organized space can make this room a place you truly want to relax.
