Wondering how to declutter<\/a> your closet<\/a> at home? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you looking for tips to help you pare down your wardrobe?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, you’ll find a few short tips to help you quickly trim down your closet.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give yourself a specific reason to declutter.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Why do you want to declutter your closet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you want to easily find your favorite blazer without having half of your sweater collection fall on top of your head?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you want to be able to assemble work outfits without hassle?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you tired <\/a>of looking at an unappealing mass of clothes every time you open your closet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clearly state a reason (or two) as to why you want to declutter your closet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you want to gain when you declutter your things?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will give you the motivation<\/a> you\u00a0need to bite the bullet and let go of items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

remove clothing you love to wear.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Start the process by removing those items that you absolutely love to wear, and fit you well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll be more motivated to continue the job because you’ve already picked out your favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rest of the sorting<\/a> process should go a lot smoother…and easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sort clothes into two categories.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Next, you’re going to separate your remaining wardrobe into two piles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the two words you’re going to keep in mind: comfort and discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All you have to do is apply it to each item in your closet as you pick it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Would you rather…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wear a pair of slacks that are oversized or a pair that fits like a dream?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have your feet pinched in\u00a0too-small shoes<\/a>, or walk about comfortably in well-fitting ones?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place each item of clothing into the appropriate pile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re still sitting on the fence when it comes to letting go of an item that is clearly\u00a0uncomfortable, think about your future self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you want to continue to slog through your closet again, and again, day after day, week after week?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wouldn’t it be great to finally get rid of something now, so you won’t have to deal with it later on, ever again?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you’re done sorting everything, place the items you’re going to keep back into your closet, dresser, or wardrobe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donate unwanted clothing.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By now, you should have a good amount of clothing that you’re ready to let go of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider\u00a0donating unwanted clothes to a local shelter or charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think old or outdated clothing<\/a> is destined for the trash? Think again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even decades-old clothing can help others out.\u00a0All you have to do is use your imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For\u00a0example, is there a local community theater or school that\u00a0could use clothing for theater or dance performances?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just think: you could easily donate\u00a0boxes upon boxes of shoes, belts, hats, dresses, scarves, and more…all for a good cause!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
