How do you declutter when you have very little storage space?

[MoonFace2]

My wardrobe is tiny. Should I just become a minimalist and basically just chuck out things that I’m currently using and that I always thought I needed? (3 t shirts, 3 pairs of 3/4 pants, 3 pencil skirts, 2 sweaters, 2 in between weather sweaters, 2 winter dresses, 2 summer dresses and anything extra that I want to keep, timeless pieces, go in a bag for storage?

I’m a hoarder, from a family of hoarders, so I need advice on how to become a minimalist. Thanks.

As someone who loves buying new clothes all the time, even with a decent wardrobe I'm running out of space all the time. If there's something I haven't worn in some time or don't like anymore as much, I try to sell them. Makes space for new pieces and also pays for them.

Also have a storage bag for stuff that's out of season. Will go in the basement or under the bed or wherever is space

You make 3 piles: Keep, Think about it, Throw out.

After throwing out everything in the throw out pile, if you still don't have enough room, you create two piles from the think about it pile: keep and throw out. Part of that decision is how much room you still have, or don't have.

Keep the clothes you are wearing. Discard or donate clothes that you haven't worn for a year.

Transitioning to a minimalist lifestyle can feel daunting, especially with limited space. Start by identifying pieces you truly love and wear frequently. Yes, you might need to be ruthless, but think about quality over quantity. Consider the seasonality of items and rotate them based on the weather. Donate or sell things you haven't worn in the last year. Keep timeless, versatile pieces that mix and match well. Storage bags are great for off-season items. Remember, it's about feeling organized and happy with what you have, not just reducing for the sake of it. You got this! 😊

Visit my parents and slip some of my excess crap into the back of the closet in my old bedroom. They never look in there.

You can take your winter clothes out of your closet for a while :)

You send it to a storage.
