My issue is that I try and declutter but decide I want to sell the items. They simply get moved to a new pile!
Great list I find it easier to do it in small steps, little and often.
Definitely just a take things one at a time it can make things seem easier.
I am 100% working my way through this list. My life needs a clear out!
I hope it helps you declutter a little!
some grea ideas
So I love it when I am in the mood to go through my wardrobe and then upload and sell things on Vinted but I really have to be in the mood. I love this printable list, what a great idea. I find writing lists ready to declutter actually helps me want to do it so this is fab.
I find that having a list helps me stay on track more, I am awful for just getting distracted and deciding to do something else.
I like “Clothes you haven’t worn in a year”. A year? More like a decade. 😁😁
To be fair I probably have some of those myself.
great list! I wouldn’t have considered some of these items, so thanks for the reminders.
Your welcome I am so glad it has given you some new ideas!
I have no clutter, cleared it years ago don’t want my daughters hving to do it when I go
Very handy list to help! thank you 🙂
Your welcome I am so glad it is helpful to you!
I always try not to collect clutter, not always successfully!
I am very bad at collecting clutter ahah!
Some really great advice, I’m due a declutter at the moment.
I really need to get onto doing some more bits myself, I’m slowly listing things on eBay.
I’m deep in decluttering at the moment! I won’t print off though because it would be 1 more thing to recycle 😀
Good luck! Ah yes that is very true, I didn’t think that through did I lol.
