Anybody up for March Madness - Decluttering Style?

It's been a while since I did any major decluttering and thought it might be fun and motivating to make a game of it instead of a chore.

So, let's play a decluttering game for March Madness. On March 1st (yes, sorry I'm a day late) declutter one item. It could be anything - a piece of paper or a sofa! On March 2nd, declutter two items. And so on each day, until by March 31st, you are decluttering 31 items that day. If you follow that simple rule every day, by the end of March you will have decluttered 496 items! Isn't that an amazing number?

Nothing says you have to do the entire month, of course. I'm not sure I will manage that myself. But every item gone is a win, in my book.

Yesterday I decluttered an old worn out swim suit. Who knows what it will be today, once I take a look around.

What do you say? Wanna go mad with me this month?

I found this article this morning, full of advice about decluttering.

One bit that makes people hold on to things is "What if someone can use that?"

Well, then set it free, let that person find it. Offer it to friends, take it to a secondhand store.

Keeping a thing someone else may need and cluttering your living space is not worth it!
