These days I'm alone at home, sorting out the apartment. We have a lot of stuff that needs to get into place - And even way too much stuff for this tiny apartment. I've been throwing a lot of stuff out, am planning to donate some(have a few boxes and some clothing ready) and have considered to sell some things I don't need anymore from my closet and apartment. I don't know if there is an interest for that out there? And if, should it only be more valuable items?
It would be nice to get it into place soon. I'm reading a lot of organizing-blogs at the moment, but it really does stay with the thought ;) I fell across the saying "A place for everything and everything in it's place", and I feel that is a good thing to remember when organizing.
What is your best tip for organizing?
My best tip is the same as when it comes to creating: kill your darlings. Oftentimes I hesitate before throwing things out because they have a sort of nostalgic value. However, I never use them so in reality they are completely useless. Therefore, better to just throw it out :P
ReplyDeleteOh, that is a really great tip! I get so attached to stuff that has the slightest meaning in some way and everything get so cluttered! Thank you!
DeleteAre you thinking about remove your dreads or do you let them grow until your hear look long?i have a very long hair with some dreads but i really need a change and i'm considering about getting dreads in all my hair. i don't know if it's a hard job to make that they look great or if i would be pacient to let the hair grow another time.can you tell me something about if it's hard to keed dreads for a long time?please excuse my bad inglish. fortu
ReplyDeleteSometimes I'm thinking about it! I've just decided to let them behave as they want and not do anything about it. However they are kind of "walking out". It takes some time to make them, but if you keep them for a long time, I think it is definitely worth it. Hope this helps!
Deletehej anna,
ReplyDeleteas i once said before, i really love your style and it would be a pleasure for me to buy some things from you. so, i'm definitely interested :) my best tip for organizing (similar to yours): everything should have its own place. have a great day!

Ooooooh, that sounds amazing! I'm cheap for shows like that! Thank you so much, I'll check it out immediatly ;)
Deleteyes! make a sales blog for all your items, cheap ones and more valuable ones! im sure people are interested:)
ReplyDeleteOk then! :) Thank you :)
DeleteI'd definitely be interested in seeing what you have for sale, both valuable and less so! I think having a mix of values is good as people have different amounts of money to spend :)
ReplyDeleteI'll think about it then :) It's always nice to make a good find, even though it is not necessarily something of great value, it is something you can treasure! Thank you! :)
DeleteFor organizing my closet, I would have to say that I tend to separate clothes according to occasion. So, all formal wear on one side and casual wear on the other side. Home clothing too is another category I like to put in a separate cabinet rather than with all my outdoor clothes.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a good system. I change it up a lot and will definitely wear lots of my clothes in both formal and casual situations.. But sounds like it works for you, thank you!! :)
DeleteThat's a cool idea! I think I'll try that too :)
DeleteHermosa :D

I say share it all...you never know who wants what and a closet can never be cleared enough. Just think all the new stuff you can find to fill that space! Blessings, girl!
