Some of the categories included: abandoned craft items, old, scary cosmetics, excess dishes, mis-matched Tupperware, duplicate items, and clothing that do not wear.
Given that I have worked through the bulk of my my possessions courtesy of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, I do not have much to address. However, when it comes to simplifying, I believe two things:
- That small bursts of simplifying and de-cluttering are ways to keep your home under control while working through your de-cluttering method of choice
- Clothing is a category that needs regular attention
After a mere 15 minutes of digging in my closet, I gathered more than 10 items that I am ready to consign and/or donate.
You have some good ideas :) Now I'm going to donate two pair of shoes that are pretty but not practical enough for me. I want to smile when I see what shoes I have and not remember how uncomfortable they are.
ReplyDeleteYou know I subscribe to The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, but there's no harm in kick-starting the process with a quick de-clutter. These little burst can be used to refine the deeper work as well.
