You must be browsing the Instagram accounts of interior designers all day. And while you may dream of becoming one of those perpetually tidy people, the struggle to organise is real. To help you turn your clean fantasies into reality, we researched a few people with neat homes and made a note of their daily habits. It turns out that it needs daily work and preparation to keep your house in a constant state of perfection. Here are all the patterns you can adopt to get out of the unorganised zone.

Make Your Bed

Even before you brush your teeth after you wake up in the morning, make your bed. If you are in a rush, pull the comforter up to your pillows and smooth it out to create a sense of order in your home.

Don't Procrastinate

When you have some grocery or goodies delivered, make sure that you unpack the box immediately and discard the packaging. The longer you wait, the harder it will be for you to deal with the mess at home.
