Simplying clothing

My dressers can't close to the loads of cloths there are inside. Merrick's needs constant updating, as he's growing so fast, and Mariann's pile unworn clothing (she's so slender). My drawers are filled with pre-pregnancy clothing that are likely not to fit me anytime soon, and Papa's closet is full of Big Bills that need to be mended, t-shirt that needs to visit the garbage bin and long sleeve shirt that need to become short sleeve ones.



I want to share my technique for simplifying our drawers, as in, getting to a point where I can close them again!



One drawer at a time, I take all the cloth and sort them weather they fit or not, and place aside any that does not fit.



Then with the remaining pile I ask myself if they have been ever been worn, and remove some more.



Then I ask myself if the item is made out of natural fibre, comfortable, and pretty!
Only then, they can go back into the drawer.
