Decluttering for Something Better - My Minimalism Accident

Author: Angela Brown January 20, 2022 Duration: 7:43

Are you decluttering for something better or just decluttering to clear out space? My minimalism accident started out innocently enough. I was pairing down my extra socks. I had plenty. I also have no history of regret when getting rid of stuff. I'm not a minimalist by nature nor am I a full-blown hoarder. I'm just an average housewife like most people with a little too much of everything. BAM! And then this happens...

Today's Ask a House Cleaner sponsor is #HoardingWorld a place where you can learn to #declutter as you change your relationship to stuff. And your host today is #AngelaBrown
