Declutterathon Day 8: Purge Those Clothes

clothes

I always find the task of purging clothes somewhat overwhelming. Even if I haven’t worn something in a long time, I can usually find a reason to wear it once I’m deciding to purge it 😛 However, I’m sure that there are some clothes that I either don’t like, or that don’t/won’t fit properly. While I don’t think my purge pile will be huge this time, I know I’ll have something to say goodbye too.

I will also be going through my daughters’ closets to put away too small clothes and purge stuff they don’t wear.

Here’s a post I wrote about 7 Ways to Pare Down Your Closet that may help you today. Also, I read the book The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up and I feel like it made me look at my clothes in a whole new way (and other household items). You may enjoy it as well!

Do you have a lot of clothes that will be going into the purge pile?

Declutterathon Day 7: Purge Those Shoes

Play with two pairs of shoes, alternating the positions of each one.

I’m back! I’ve been ‘suffering’ from technical issues for a couple of days now, but I am finally able to access my own website! Yahoo! So we can officially get back to decluttering.

Today’s Declutterathon activity: purge the shoes!

This shouldn’t be too hard around here.  I don’t have many shoes and my husband has even less!  I think my struggle is going to be convincing my husband that he needs to finally throw away his old broken soccer cleats. (He thinks he might use them one day as backup shoes??) I think if it’s been a year and he hasn’t needed them, they’re gone. 😛

The problem with my shoes is that some of them only get worn a few times a year. I keep trying to convince myself they need to go, but then I end up wearing them again out of sympathy or something. I’m weird, I know.

As for my daughters’ shoes, the too small ones and out of season ones will go into storage or get donated.

How do you keep a handle on your shoe situation?

Declutterathon Day 6: Purge Your Craft Supplies

While I don’t have a craft room, I do think that today’s activity of purging the craft supplies is going to take me more time then previous tasks! I seem to have bins all over the house 😛 I’ll be sorting through my daughters craft supplies too. By the way, I love these storage boxes from London Drugs,. They’re wonderful for holding all sorts of stuff!

Here are some links to great craft organization tips:

What’s the craft supply situation like in your home? How much did you manage to purge? Maybe you’ll find some unfinished projects you can finish!
