    I find it very helpful after a declutter to hang all the hangers backwards, hooks facing out. Then when i wear an item and launder then i hang it up normally. It is an excellent way to see what I'm not wearing and what can be donated at the end of the season or set time frame.
    Hope that idea is helpful. Great job working together to help mom with this task.

    Lovely to see you girls helping your mum. I had a huge declutter and then put together whole oufits with their accessories and costume jewellery in a little gauze bag on the hanger. Now every day all I need to do is ro take one hanger out with it's complete outfit for spring summer autumn winter and special occassion. Much easier to store the out of season clothes away, much less stressful and I look well presented every day. I donated so much and feel happy another person will benefit as well as each of the different charities I donated to. Even better I know what I have and just needed to purchase a couple of items to complete two outfits. A weight off my shoulders. I plan to replace items as they wear out but stick to having a prepared oufit for each day.

    • @theroadtosimple
      @theroadtosimple  2 месяца назад

    I am only a few years younger than your mom. Seven years ago I moved from a 2100 SQ. Feet house to a 675 Sq. Feet house. Before moving, I got rid of 90% of my possessions, including hundreds of pieces of clothes, kitchen supplies, tools, arts/crafts, photos, papers, nicknacks, shoes, books, records/tapes/DVD's/CD's, and memorabilia. What's left fit in my new, tiny one bedroom house, with room to spare. I only have 25 items in my closet, plus enough "unmentionables" and PJ's to last me two weeks, in a small dresser and a night stand. It took me one night to pack everything I own after my massive decluttering. Downsizing , or as the Swedish call it, "Death Cleaning", is the key to a healthy aging. There is really no need to keep anything for 35 years. I now only keep what I bought in the last five years; everything else is either trashed or donated. I feel so free!

      It certainly can be - but also seeing everything all together like that helps a person (or me, anyway) get a full understanding/feeling of just how much stuff we have. In this case, it was too much to do all at once - which is why we split it into 2 days.
