First, decide what the closet is really for. Um, how about holding items of clothing that I actually like and wear, not just stuff I might wear or fit back into one of these days. And also, if I fit in something but just don't like wearing it, it doesn't need to be there.
Excellent. This is what the closet looks like before the minimize...
You will note that I am judiciously ONLY showing my, um, half of the closet.
This is all the stuff that came out of my half of the closet out on the bed...
After going through everything and making a fast judgement on a) does it fit, b) do I like it, and c) do I actually wear it, just the things that hit all the preceding criteria went back in the closet. This is the end result...
Pretty nice minimize, if I do say so myself. I kept my suit, two blazers, a few dress shirts, and the polo shirts that fit and look the best. I also retained all my ties, belts. A hand-knit sweater my wife gave me is on the top shelf.
The best thing is that the items left in the closet are the pieces of my wardrobe I actually wear and now they are not stuffed in with a bunch of things that never see the light of day.
More room for the good stuff, eh?
So basically your closet is like everyone's closet where only 1 item out of 100 is actually worn. lol!
ReplyDeleteGood job getting it sorted.
Yes, my closet was not the first one to discover the joy of hoarding clothes that never see the light of day. Maybe they are vampire-clothes? : )
