""Purge Or Not To Purge...THAT Is The Question..."

"Purge or not to purge, THAT is the question…."

Here in America, we have an obsession with items. It is a great race to acquire as much junk as possible in order for us to feel important. Today is the day we change that! No longer should we stick with this mold and believe the lie that we need 400 different tank tops.  Or that we need that 157th candle smelling of clean linen. Keeping our belongings to a reasonable level is super important, not only for organizational solutions but also for keeping our house clean. Yet purging those items can be hard. Why? Because it takes time and a lot of times we do not know where to start. Learning some simple techniques can help you put the stop to the hoarding.
Purging can be hard. But let’s make it simpler for you.

  • Hold each item. Does it bring you joy? If not, then it is time to get rid of it. You may like it, but if you do not have that sense of joy then it is not worth having.  That cassette tape that no longer works from 20 years ago probably falls into this category. 

  • When you take items out of a box or put them away, ask yourself when you plan to use it. There is no longer a need for you to continue hoarding items of little or no value.  Do not store something you think, maybe one day I will use this..

  • If something comes into the house, something goes out. Someone's husband we know has this policy with shoes. If they get a new pair of shoes, they get rid of one. This keeps our closets from overflowing with items that we barely wear.

  • The hanger challenge. Turn all of your hangers the same way, as you wear and wash items hang them back up with the hanger facing the opposite direction. This makes is obvious which items you never wear. If you don’t wear something for weeks then donate it right away.


Taking the time to purge occasionally can lighten the load in the house and make the house feel larger and cleaner without doing anything else!
