Fighting clutter is an ongoing and sometimes unrelenting process. One moment, you’re clutter-free and the next moment 15 boxes arrive from Amazon. Cats jump into the boxes, scattering paper everywhere. Supposedly hilarity ensues, but then the boxes are forgotten and sit around gathering dust and adding to your lack of good mental health. AmIRight? So here are some ways window film can assist you in your ongoing battle against clutter.

Hide it All!

By that we mean, keep your clutter behind window film while you figure out what to do with it. Window film can obscure that clutter while you decide whether you really want to take the time to take photos and post them to eBay (vintage broken toaster, anyone?) or simply take it to the dump. You might not be ready to part with certain items because they’re sentimental, which is another reason window film can help.

Distract yourself and your friends

You can use window film with an interesting design to create something prettier to look at. There are so many pretty window films now that you won’t have to look very long to find something. Divert your eyes from that pile of junk by telling yourself to look at something else. By the way, we’ve talked about decorative window film before: Will Window Film Make My Life Better?

Minimize clutter by diffusing the light

Why shine a spotlight on that stuff you want gone? Soften the light coming in through your windows with film! Either that or get some rose-colored glasses to create a soft glow to envelop your clutter. And you might also like this article: Ten Uses of Window Film That Will Definitely Spark Joy!

Replace curtains or other window coverings with film

Window film doesn’t gather dust like those ugly curtains from 1974. Yes, they belonged to your grandmother, but would she really want you to suffer from breathing in so much dust? No, she would not! She would want you to be healthy.

Hide clutter in cabinets

We’ve talked about kitchen cabinets and how people have this idea that everything will look perfect once they have new cabinets. Then they have kids and there are suddenly one million sippy cups! You can use window film on cabinetry to hide clutter–at least until life gets less cluttered and the kids go off to college.

You could also get rid of the clutter

This might be the toughest option of all. But if you get rid of the clutter you can still use window film to make your home more beautiful!
