  • Washing piled up on furniture
  • Clutter over benches and tables
  • Comments like ‘I’ve been meaning to clean this’
  • Often embarrassed by the mess and try to justify it

2. The Perfectionist

  • Zero clutter – everything has a place
  • No washing or dishes out in the open
  • Homes professionally cleaned regularly

  • Wardrobes full to the brink
  • Piles of shoes by the front door
  • Empty boxes from their latest purchases
  • Cupboards and entertainment units fully stocked
