- Take everything off of the floor of one room, wash the floor, after which you only replace the items that actually belong there.

- Get some of those pretty decorative bins. These can be found all over the place these days and are invaluable as they look both nice-looking and uncluttered where-ever you place them, and they can conceal tons of random "stuff".
