The Clutter Challenge – a Home Reset for January (week 3)
Are you ready for week 3 of The Clutter Challenge? Even if you didn’t finish everything up from last week or if you haven’t started, jump right into week 3 and follow the checklist. Each week, we’re working through different areas of our homes following the checklist. We’re starting this week in the bathroom(s). Keep reading for links to posts and tips for getting your bathroom(s) decluttered this week.
TIP: Clean your bathrooms using my bathroom speed cleaning process first and then get started with your decluttering.
You’ll find that there’s a specific order in the free printable list for the month. It’s important that you follow this order for decluttering your home but complete it in a way that makes sense for your schedule. Some recommendations: one task a day, set a timer for 10-15 minutes, or 2-3 tasks a day until completed. This order matters because it will take you through the house in a logical, sequential, and efficient way. If you haven’t grabbed the checklist yet, there’s a link down below 🙂
The goal for this week is to work on the Bathrooms Checklist and do one or two of these things every day this week.
BATHROOM(S)
- clear + clean bathroom counters
- bathroom cabinets – tackle all of them or just one or two
- bathroom drawers – tackle all of them or just one or two
- medicine cabinet – empty, get rid of expired items, and return items
- toiletries and makeup – keep the best and get rid of anything you don’t use
- bath towels, hand towels, wash cloths – repurpose anything worn or with holes and keep the best
Every Monday for the month of January, I’ll post some tips for the week ahead right here on the blog (make sure you’re subscribing below). Read on for more, grab your checklist, and follow along!

As I moved recently, the only clutter left is some books boxes and wall decorations to unload. My kitchen was thoroughy cleaned (except washing my floor! And I’ve just finished our shower-bathroom downstairs. There is still our first floor bathroom. That will be done by the end of the day.
Many thanks.

Made your bathroom cleaner and grabbed all of my microfibers and cleaned my bathroom top to bottom in the order you suggested. (I’m guilty of just using wipes and a toilet brush usually 😉). I’m embarrassed to say how much cleaner it got today!!! I thought it was clean… Now it really is! Used the unlock features on my toilet seat also… Umm, that was a little scary! I’m a convert to the spray and microfiber cloths! Thank you!!

I NEED to do this. I’ve been slowly decluttering my house the past few months. This list is perfect! 🙂
