Making clutter count
Guru, Suthivas Tanphaibul, Published on 07/01/2022
» Knock on wood, it's a relief to enter 2022 in one piece after a white-knuckle rollercoaster ride that the last few years have been. You may already be working on your "New Year, New Me" motto and planning which New Year's resolution box to tick first. You can also have a fresh start at home by donating stuff you no longer want to public and private organisations that turn your pre-loved items, or even trash, into treasures for people in need. Plus, it's a win-win situation where you can declutter your home while making the beginning of the new year better for others, as well.
