I have been actively clearing my small wardrobe of 4-doors. Until now, it is still as packed. Gonna start a blog on my little uncluttering journal very soon.

What's in my wardrobe
- Clothes
- Tissue packets
- Hair dryer
- Little plush toys
- Bags
- Caps
- Gift boxes
- CDs
- Balloon (deflated)
- Hair products
- Some accessories
- Belts
- Toys
- Little small things from overseas
- Jigsaw puzzle
- Poster
- and many more!

I realise I have so many random things in there, but they mean too much to me!
So, starting from now, I decided that if there's a new thing added to my wardrobe, I should take out 1 thing too! If it makes it simpler.

Yeah, one in-one out helps a lot. I try to do that with clothes. It also helps to get a set number of hangers. More clothes than hangers isn't allowed!

If it is still packed with stuff, obviously you have to do more than 1 in and 1 out. You need to try 0 in and 100 out and you will be sorted in no time.

maxinemarshall: what is your problem? And this is not the first time someone on this forum has dropped a hint to you.

@natano, I'd suggest maybe 1 thing in, 2 things out? A much less painful way to go :-) Or come join us on the ATAD (a thing a day thread), you'll receive lots of encouragement there. Good luck with your uncluttering journey!

Natano, do you have space elsewhere in your home for some of this stuff? For example, you could move tissues and hair items to the bathroom or to a vanity box on your dresser, toys and gift/party items can be sorted and put together. If you're in a small space like a dorm or a room in your parents' house, then try these areas in the forum for inspiration:

Thanks guys for the advice. I started to clear alot of stuff, esp my clothes. To date, I have donated about 30-40 apparels. And yes, having a fixed number of hangers really help control the clutter. :) I will still try hard to clear other stuff in my room.

When spring cleaning clothes try turning the hangers backwards then as you wear the item hang it forward. After 6 months to 1 year get rid of the items that are still backwards.
