Ok at the risk of sounding a total nutcase, this is the Kondo method.
When you open your wardrobe or open a drawer, does the sight of everything hanging or folded neatly, fill you with joy. Or do you shuffle through stuff choosing the least worse.
I have decided that Life is too short to wear uncomfortable ill fitting clothes that sap my self esteem. If I am relaxing at home, then I wear the things that are comfortable, if I am going out wear what makes me self confident.
The new me had a radical hair make-over, once I stopped feeling dowdy.
If you look on YouTube , she shows you how to fold your clothes to free up space. Sounds crazy when you first watch but I have converted several friends.
I threw away 45 coat hangers on my first session. I had so many clothes for gardening, so many clothes for housework. Goodnes knows why I thought needed 8 pairs of old jogging pants.
I did not stop at clothes, I Kondo''d my whole house. She says that you have to put things that are the same in the same place. I gathered up enough medicines to start a pharmacy. Six bottles of cough medicine, 5 packets of plasters pain killers and ointments, many out of date. I am too embarrassed to tell you how many rolls of sellotape and how many pairs of scissors I had around the house.
One of the best things was, that seeing the difference I made to my things, my OH finally cleared out 30 years of paper work, freeing up half of our spare bedroom.
No, I never run out of clothes to answe your question. Sorry for the essay?
