De-cluttering
I’m such a pack rat. I never throw anything out – even if its worn, old, broken, tarnished. I have clothes from the fifth grade that still fits and broken jewelry pieces that are missing a backing or something. I do not throw them out not because they are worthy in value but because they are priceless. Even if my homecoming dance earrings are missing a rhinestone, I still want to keep it. And even if my ankle’s clasp is broken I still wanna see it. But today, I took a big step and threw out my broken jewelry and sorted the usable ones. I admit I did keep a couple memories one – I can’t just throw out my emotional baggage like that!
Anyways, I’m not much of a decorating person even though I always wanted to. I went to Target and found a bunch of tableware that was on clearance. For $1.99 a piece I grabbed a couple of pretty clear bowls and cups. I sorted them by earrings, headbands, necklace, bangles (which I own like 30+ and I only have two arms!). I don’t have a picture right now but I swear I’ll upload one when I do. I’m not done organizing since I left half of my accessories in my apartment and I’m currently living at home with my parents. Try to imagine it. Think – Forever 21 accessories branch store. They sort everything in bowls. Yes, I admit I stole their idea but when have they ever had an original idea themselves. It’s like an open jewelry box; let’s just hope no one robs me! Knock on wood!
Next – de-cluttering my closet. Oh boy…
