CLOSET HELP

Do you hesitate getting rid of clothes due to the money you spent on them?  Remember, thisy overstocking is costing you in closet space, in remorse and in the amount of frustration when you can’t find something you’re looking for in a jam-packed closet.

• You wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time (open those closet doors and think about it)
• Overwhelming task? When organizing, target one room – one area – one spot (closet, drawer, or corner).
• Four ways to go:  KEEP – CONSIGN -- DONATE – THROW
• Set a timer for 30 minutes and see how much you can get done in that time.  Repeat until the closet works for you.
• Ready, sort, purge –
• Does it look good on me?
• Do I love it?
• Does it fit?
• Have I worn it lately (in the last 12-18 months)?
• Is it in style?
• Does it need fixing?
• Is it a duplicate?
• Is it comfortable?
• For each new item you add to your closet get rid of one.  One item in – one item out.  This will maintain a manageable level of clothes.
• For those items you will be donating, you will need to check with your favorite donation site.   Donate clothes so that someone who truly needs it can use it.
• For those items you will be consigning, store them in a clean, dry location.
• For more details check Nu Look’s consignment policy.
