I liked the make a list and start in one room comment.For people like me who would rather read about organization than be organized that is a pivotal suggestion.Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413124039150647928.post-49771081195196349432012-05-20T10:07:30.786-05:002012-05-20T10:07:30.786-05:00Thank you for reading, and commenting!

You would think moms would keep all the important papers, but apparently they also love to keep newsletters from each semester in elementary school... I managed to rid my life of a few pounds of 20-year-old junk. What a freeing feeling! It's also comforting to read many blogs like yours talking about how easy it is to achieve less clutter and how we don't have to get rid of ALL our stuff, just the stuff we don't need. Thanks again for your post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413124039150647928.post-55842494382980953082012-03-31T08:32:37.153-05:002012-03-31T08:32:37.153-05:00It's just so much easier, isn't it?!

We have a fairly small collection, but we rarely watch any of them, so why not use that space for something we actually need/want? I like the old adage, "A place for everything, and everything in its place". If it doesn't have a place, it ought to go!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08559448743103933371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413124039150647928.post-71740206373297508442012-03-31T08:30:06.838-05:002012-03-31T08:30:06.838-05:00Glad I could serve as the reminder this time.

What an e...That is a good tip on the clothing, Jen! What an easy way to figure out what you really do and don't wear. I have certain articles of clothing that I keep because I "really like" them, but never actually wear them because they don't look especially nice on my body type or something. What's the point?! And as easy as it is to get pretty much anything for cheap these days with thrift stores, CraigsList, and FreeCycle, there really is just no reason at all to keep clutter "just in case"!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08559448743103933371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413124039150647928.post-47490004542777154232012-03-31T08:01:37.920-05:002012-03-31T08:01:37.920-05:00Awesome article!

One thing you can do to figure out what you wear/don't wear is to start out putting all of your clothes on hangers and putting the hangers on the pole backwards, and when you wear it, wash it, and hang it back up, put place it on the pole in the normal direction. It helps to see what you haven't worn!<br /><br />JenJennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17452276103821999254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413124039150647928.post-25608132948204608252012-03-31T03:28:15.768-05:002012-03-31T03:28:15.768-05:00Good tips, Meg!

I regularly clean out closets and shelves, but it is always good to read something like this and think, "Hmmm, could I do more?"Elizabeth J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08146827610224637906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413124039150647928.post-20747555725546352022012-03-30T21:41:21.338-05:002012-03-30T21:41:21.338-05:00Yay for clutter hate!

I've been going through a lot of the sentimental things and old home decor stuff.Also dvd's we will never watch, books that I've owned forever, thought were crappy, but never got rid of and other random stuff like old kitchen appliances. Feels so good. I've kept our living areas clutter free for quite some time but now the garage and attic are getting really good.Diana @ frontyardfoodiehttp://frontyardfoodie.comnoreply@blogger.com
