KickOutClutter
Closet Edit Checklist
Declutter by category, not by closet. Keep only what fits, feels good, and works for your life right now. Finish with a simple maintenance habit.
Supplies
- Sturdy hangers (matching if possible)
- 3 bins: Keep, Donate/Sell, Tailor/Mend
- Laundry basket + lint roller
- Mirror, measuring tape
- Labels/marker + size dividers (optional)
Quick Rules
One category at a time. Try-on test: fit, comfort, confidence. Duplicates? Keep the best; release the rest.
- Trash stained/torn items or move to Tailor/Mend now.
- One in, one out going forward.
- Limit 'special occasion' to what you’ll realistically wear.
