Weekend Challenge: Get Rid of 2 Bags of Clothes

Ugh! Some days, I really just wish What Not to Wear would swoop in and save me from my own clothes (Clean Sweep would be too much to hope for 
). I have too many, and I know I don’t wear them all. I’d love someone to step into my life, toss out all my clothes, and buy me news ones that I’d actually wear.
Hoarder Problem: I keep clothes that fit me when I was 2 sizes larger.I don’t wear them, but I hang on to them because if I get rid of them I won’t have them “in case I need them”.
Apparently, the hoarding part of my brain skims over the fact that since I don’t wear them, I obviously don’t need them (and even if I did need them, they wouldn’t fit right anyway!)
Clutter Fact: I have more clothes than my dresser can fit, so much of my clothes sit on the floor next to it (admittedly, it’s a crummy dresser that doesn’t hold much, the drawers only open half way, and weighs a tonne to boot). It’s ridiculous, and I hate it. It makes the room an instant mess, and the clothes get wrinkled.
This weekend, my personal challenge is to get rid of at least 2 bags of clothing. This should cut it down a bit, and maybe I can wrangle more of the clothes I do wear into the dresser!
Try it too, if you like! Get rid of some of the clothes that you no longer wear. Do it this weekend!

I hope you make it to two bags! Maybe if you are thinking of giving those clothes to a charity, and you tell yourself how nice it will be for the people that get them, then getting rid of the clothes will be easier.
Well, I just put 3 big bags of clothes in my car, to take and donate tomorrow! It feels great to have them out of my closet! Really, once I started, it was much easier than I expected.
Good luck Kitty!

I got rid of a bag of clothes last weekend - my suggestion is do it when you’re in a bad mood! I alwyas find it easier to get rid of things when I’m in a grump, and getting rid of the clutter is an instant pick-me-up!
Hope you make it to 2 bags!
