I didn't make 30 items, I have 70 :0
Wow a person sure can stuff a lot of stuff in a closet!
I also ended up with a tub of extras/maybes, and pants one size smaller (hoping I need them)
I ended up with 5 bags to either donate or have a tag sale.
I realized that by being unorganized I actually bought things I already had. What a waste! This is my new starting point, I hope to still reduce it more. But not today, I'm organized out!! I also cleaned ou the drawers and minimized enough to have a whole empty drawer.
Things I realized:
We always think we need something
A bargain is not a bargain if you don't need it
I have a hard time with wanting extras ( hence the tub) but I want to work on this. It is not like they will quit making clothes lol.

Heather... you have inspired me to clean out my closet of clothes. At first it was hard, it seem each piece has a memory of where I bought it or where I wore it or I really use to love this outfit but not any more. Most I have bought a thrift store. Some, I have bought a the mall many, many, many years ago. Middle age has changed my body shape and I will never be that skinny again. I also can to the realization that it's just fabric and thread that I purchased at the thrift store so I have not invested a lot of money in to the garment. I also realize my life style and taste in clothing kept changing so why not. Out this the old and in with the new to me from the thrift store.

After my dad died in July ( he was living with us) I started cleaning the room he had first. and then I am making my sewing room in there. So, I am finding things everywhere in the house that I had tucked in places cause I did not have the sewing room. Boy every time I come across a sewing item, I purge that particular space. I am having so much fun getting the place back to how I want it. Cleaned out. I agree with all of you , purging is very therapeutic!!
