When shopping, she said, consider the floor space you're working with as well as the architecture of the room. "You should have good traffic flow within the space, but it should never feel like it's missing a piece or feel empty," Moreira told BI.

Find a nightstand with drawers and hidden storage to reduce clutter. New Africa/ShutterstockSarah Barnard, interior designer and founder of Sarah Barnard Design, told Business Insider that nightstands can quickly accumulate a variety of odds and ends, creating visual clutter. "Opting for a nightstand with drawers or covered storage keeps items close at hand while maintaining visual calm," Barnard explained. She added this type of nightstand can also offer privacy for your items. Plus lined or compartmentalized interiors can help reduce the noise of opening or closing drawers.

Placing too many picture frames on surfaces will create clutter. Lots of picture frames can clutter a tabletop. JTaI/ShutterstockIf you are someone who enjoys displaying family photos all over your tabletops, it's better to opt for a gallery wall instead, according to Bo Keuleers, interior design manager at MVA Home. Not only does this declutter shelves, nightstands, and dressers, Keuleers said, but also it creates space for more functional items that contribute to creating a relaxed environment. She suggested replacing those picture frames with table lamps, candles, or coffee table books for a better lit and less cluttered space.

Sarah Scott, 27, spends five hours per week selling found furniture on Facebook Marketplace. Within 48 hours, she'd sold it all on Facebook Marketplace, a section of Facebook where users can buy and sell goods, often to and from people in their local area. She says she spends just five hours per week on her side gig — three hours for driving and picking up items and two hours for staging, photographing, and listing items online. And some, like Scott, have embraced reseller platforms like Poshmark or Facebook Marketplace to earn extra cash or become full-time resellers. While she occasionally ships items, Scott leaves the vast majority of them on her porch for buyers to pick up and they can pay her through Venmo.
