Decluttering - making your space feel lighter

Lily-Rose's avatar

It’s been hard but I have learned that not bringing more stuff into my space is the number one way to cut down on clutter

see something someone is getting rid of

  1. Am I going to use it in the next week/month
  2. is it beautiful- does it add aesthetic value to my life
  3. will it be easy to dispose of if I decide I don’t want it
  4. is it broken/marked irreparable

I have x 2 boxes of men’s DVDs which I haven’t managed to sell

if you want some ‘men’s films’ DVDs let me know what you’re into

ill see if I’ve got it.

I have a black bag full of women’s clothes between size 8-14 if anybody is interested!😊

That’s great!

sadly wouldn’t fit me at the moment

I’ve just sent loads of things to Thrift +
They take high end high street and designer wear.

they’ve listed one of my dresses that was new with tags for £100 so I’m really pleased

I get 40%

I’ll have to have a look! I usually put my on Vinted but never really have any luck🙈

On Thrift + they do all the photographing and uploading and description for you on their own platform

Oh that’s amazing. It would save me so much time and effort. My camera roll is full of pictures of old clothes 😂

I also have a black bag of coats and winter bits not sure of sizes but good condition!

I have a whole host of what would generally be considered men’s films

Clint Eastwood

Steven Segal

if anyone is interested I’m selling them at £2 each

free postage if you want multiples I will need a bit for postage also

bug they’re quite light to post.

I had loads of DVDS and in the end nobody wanted to buy them so I put the box outside and let people help themselves 🤷🏽‍♀️

Yes

i think I’m getting to that stage…

much quicker way to make space

I'm going to the mothers house to help sort out a whole loft of goods she hasn't used in 10 years lol I cant understand why she keeps things .

Oh that is brilliant Jed

well done for helping her

We do have a lot off accumulated stuff as we get older it happens to most people

I have organised for BHF to come and collect some clothes and books in a few weeks time that will feel great to get those out of the house

I’ve also got a bag of old electronics nothing exciting to take to PC world or anywhere that will take it

Still getting stuff to the charity shop so much to go through

I’ve been able to sell a few bits on vinted but think I may just donate the rest too homeless shelters as it’s freezing I couldn’t imagine how they’re all feeling😢

Recently moved old house stuff to the new house . Got a lot to get through while renovating a third apartment. It's a tough task as I have also treadmill, cross trainer and heavy mini gym equipments to move round . One step at a time .
