A Slob Comes Clean

390: Questions About Toys, Finding Places, and Decluttering


Listen Later

I'm answering a few questions that were asked over at AskDanaKWhite.com

Question 1: My question is on the subject of toys. How do I go about starting (outside of your normal questions)? Like where do I start? My son is 3. Do I pick what to keep or does he? (We have tons of Hot Wheels, monster trucks, and small tractors.) How do I decide what to keep/donate? Is there a limit to how many of each?! HELP! Thank you!

Question 2: I am just starting my decluttering adventure. How do I create a home for items that I don't already have a place for?

Question 3: What do you do with items that you know you would have (Q2) but are not sure where you would look for that item? My "look for first" place changes. What if you haven't had a look for this item first space yet?


Part 2 of this question: What do you do for hope chest and heirloom items? I am saving for a home of my own. I have items that I would need for my future home. Right now I am living with a roommate and using her stuff (per her request as she owns the place that I am living). I have some of the same items i.e. dishes, furniture that I needed with different roommates and apartments in the past. When I have my own place will need these items again. How do I declutter items that I will still need when I'm wanting to declutter what I have and make it more manageable?
