HELP!
Ladies, I need to clean out my closet. Everytime I attempt to do this, I freak out. I have a TON of clothes I need to get rid of, but for this reason or that reason (none make any sense) I don't. Part of me thinks "I MIGHT need that one day!" but I haven't in like 3 years.
How do you get past the side of your brain saying "Keep it!" when you know someone else could get good use out of it!
Re: HELP!
I am the same way. What's worked for me in the past is pulling the items from my closet and putting them in the closet in our spare room for a few weeks. If I decide to wear the item in that timeframe, I move it back to my closet. If I don't, it goes to Goodwill.
I purged my closet when we moved last month and have thought "that sweater would really go well with my outfit today, too bad I donated it." And then realized, it wasn't the end of the world. I had another that looked fine. Plus, someone else probably has it and has worn it way more than I would have if I had it. BUT, I feel your pain and just wish I could get H on board to get rid of a couple things!

Adoption Journey
Aug 2012 -- Began the foster-to-adopt process
Oct 2012 -- Turning in foster/adopt application, completed background checks, and began classes for foster care and adoption. Dec 2012 -- Adoption placed on hold due to a semi-surprise pregnancy.
If you go an entire year without wearing the clothes, toss it. Here's how you can tell.
At the beginning of the season, hang the hanger on the rod backwards, so that the opening of the hanger is facing you instead of the back of your closet. As you wear, wash, and rehang your clothes, put them on the hanger properly. At the end of the year/season, any clothes that are still on backwards hangers are ready to be tossed/donated!
