A few years ago I did a full house decluttering. It took me a full year but my house was so much better when I was done. But I also noticed a theme, that theme was every closet we had was stuffed full of stuff.

  1. Great tips, Shelly! I think de-cluttering on a regular basis has worked best for our family. I try to regularly move things out of our home so that we don’t keep tons of things that we don’t need or use for years.

    Thanks for the podcast! 🙂

  2. I loved all the tips in this podcast! It’s definitely hard to get rid of things when you have to make room, especially when you are a frugal person, because you agonize over how much that item cost (or at least I do!).

    There are quite a few items in my closet that I need to let go of…I’ll just have to close my eyes when I stuff them in the giveaway bag 🙂

    1. That’s a great way to get rid of those items, close your eyes and stuff. I like that. 🙂
