Start by removing old and broken hangers as well as those wire hangers you get from the dry cleaner.
Then get rid of any clothing thats stained, damaged, or doesnt fit anymore.
Donate anything in good condition thats no longer your style.
Finally, take a quick look through your shoes.

Children are great at creating messes.
Start in the closet by tossing any clothing thats stained, worn out, or no longer fits.
Then move on to toys and art supplies.
If something is broken, missing pieces, or no longer age-appropriateit needs to go.
Go through each shelf.
Expired foods and spices need to go.
After decluttering, take a few minutes to rearrange everything and tidy the shelves.
Check expiration dates on both prescription and over-the-counter medications.
Throw out anything thats expired and order replacements for anything expiring soon.
Dont forget to check vitamins and homeopathic remedies, if you use them.
Keep in mind that many topical products start to expire once theyve been opened.
Thats the number of months it’s good for once opened.
If you cant remember when something was purchased, its probably a good idea to let it go.
