Owner Tracy McCubbin knows it is easy to get overwhelmed by the clutter in our home or offfice. She has set out on a mission to help you see through your chaos and maintain a more organized environment. She sent us these great tips to jump start your spring cleaning:
-Before you start attacking your closet, know where you plan to donate and give the stuff you don’t want to. It makes it easier to part with something if you know where it’s going.
-Just because you paid a lot of money for something doesn’t mean it’s worth keeping. If you’ve had an article of clothing, pair of shoe, purse for two years and haven’t worn them then chances are you aren’t going to. Accept that it was a mistake and let it go.
-Shoes don’t go from uncomfortable to comfortable. If they hurt when you bought them, they are going to continue to hurt!
-Keep clothes for the life you live and not the life you think you live. Everything in your closet should make you happy, not make you feel bad about yourself. Embrace your style and get rid of the clothes that don’t work.
