Clutter: A disorderly heap or assemblage Remote controls are NOT chic! amanda wallace said...

Um, I don't know where to begin. I hate the remote control pile ups as well. Let me know if you figure out a fun way to contain them. The thing I tend to hoard are clothes I don't like or wear. I realize there are just a handful of items I would be completely happy with - good quality, classic style clothes (which I would consider as found in JCrew magazine...although I only own about 3 items from there). Look forward to reading another post. --amanda

There was a little project going around on the blogs in November. It was a challenge to remove 100 things from your home in that month. I did it and it was liberating getting rid of some things that I never use. Just start somewhere getting rid of things you don't need and have no emotional attachment to and then go from there. My trunk was full in my car when I went to donate it all. That's a lot of stuff when you think about that much space.

Hi Amanda! I'll let you know about the remote control situation. You said a mouthful when you said you hoard clothes you don't like or wear. How bizarre is it that we do that? I know all of us do, and it acts as a sort of security blanket. I love J Crew too. You have the perfect figure for their clothes.

Bonjour Madame, I hate I missed that 100 things challenge with everyone. I always have a to go bag in my closet and take many things to my family when I go home. I find it easy to go through things as I wear them or use them. I bet you felt great getting rid of a trunk full of clothes! That is A LOT!! Do you miss anything yet?

Hi Jennifer! I have been recently decluttering my paper files...well before the baby. Kevin and I decluttered our closet and got rid of a ton of things a couple months ago. I had clothes I hadn't worn in 8 years! I have a huge list of things to declutter but before I get started can I hoard some more of your magazines to feed my creative frenzy?
 
It's magazines, all the way dear Closet Therapist! I too am in the process of decluttering and the magazines are slowing diminishing as I cannot bear to get rid of them before reading. And I too have files of 'useful' magazine pages which I may or may not get back to ever again. That is phase 2 though. Love your blog!
 
Sarah, I've been decluttering my magazines especially for you now! I'll bring them over soon. :)

Fiona, You too with the magazines! I hope I've learned my lesson now because this is ridiculous! I am still tearing out the pages and I've been eyeing some cute binders at Target to store them in. It's really like your own personal magazine and totally worth keeping for inspiration!
