    Questions to Ask Yourself When Clearing out your Closet

    February 16, 2021 /

    For this next post of our decluttering series, we’re focusing on decluttering our closets. Choosing to Let Clothes Go Whether it’s because you’ve been looking at your closet and desiring a more minimalist approach or it’s just time to create some space, letting go of clothing can be challenging. We’ve probably all heard by now Marie Kondo’s question “Does this spark joy?” when it comes to decluttering. I do love that question since I like having things around me that bring joy, but find I need to delve deeper than that, like Roberta Lee does when she talks about wearing her values. What to Ask Yourself If the “does this…

    Approaches to Decluttering: How to Get Started

    February 9, 2021 /

    Last week we shared some of the benefits of clearing clutter and living with less, but the question is: where does one start? Various items or areas of your space can present different challenges to declutter. Some items hold a lot of memories and can be difficult to approach while other areas – like maybe a jammed closet – can seem overwhelming. I enjoy a good purge and have a few methods that work for me, depending on what items or area of my home I’m looking to clear! Speed Purge This post from Be More With Less walks you through decluttering 10 Spaces, 10 Minutes, 100 Items from easy…

    Why Decluttering your Space is Good for you

    February 2, 2021 /

    Today marks the start of our Decluttering Series that will run for the next five weeks. Decluttering our spaces and owning less is something Krista and I both continually try and work on. And it is just that–a continual work in progress! Over the next few weeks we’ll be sharing some resources, some approaches to decluttering, and some creative, environmentally friendly ways to dispose of your belongings.

    Have you been spending quarantine times decluttering your house hoping to have a garage sale this summer? (If you haven’t started your spring clean yet, check out this post for 3 easy steps to get started.) It’s still pretty unsure if garage sales will be able to happen this summer, so it might be best to try selling online. One of my side hustles is buying, refinishing, and reselling furniture online. Since I spend quite a bit of time reading and constructing online ads because of this, I’ve seen a lot of the good and bad that’s out there.

    3 Easy Steps to Start Decluttering

    June 23, 2020 /

    Sometimes looking at the huge task of decluttering a household can seem daunting. Where to start? What do let go of? A few years ago I challenged myself to purge 30 things in 30 days because I was overwhelmed with stuff after a move. Choosing one item every day felt like an achievable goal and it started me on a continual journey of decluttering. Here are a few things that helped me start–and keep going–on this process of letting things I don’t need go. 1. Start Small Looking at an entire house can be overwhelming, so my suggestion is to choose something small and easy to start. This could be…
