Just 10 Things - 80 Winter Warmers

Published: Aug 11, 2018 by Alice · This post may contain affiliate links · Leave a Comment

Declutter all those winter warmers the family never wears whether outgrown gloves, odd mittens or hats with holes in

Here in England.

There's a week in mid August.

When you start to feel winter coming.

EVEN when it's scorching hot.

Honestly. There is.

The first harvest's ready.

The evening's draw in.

And there's a freshness in the morning.

Which has the promise of frosts to come.

So even though it's not remotely time yet to be pulling on our winter hats and scarfs.

It IS a good time to be clearing out all those odd gloves, tiny mittens and bags full of beanies.

Plus all those snoods and shawls and neck cosies.

That seemed a nice idea.

But no one actually wears.

So when winter DOES come the whole family can find the few things they need WITHOUT tipping the whole lot on the floor ...

If you're following along with my quick daily declutter, read on. BUT if you're new do hop back and read how just 10 things can help you declutter easily.

Just 10 Things  - Winter Warmers

As always we'll stick to the just 10 things rules:

  • Take 5 minutes or so, 15 minutes max
  • Focus on winter warmers
  • Open our eyes to the never worn, the orphans and the moth eaten
  • And without yanking stuff out 
  • Spot any we're ready to let go

Keeping our eyes peeled for old ...

  1. Beanies
  2. Scarfs
  3. Gloves
  4. Mittens
  5. Balaclavas
  6. Snoods
  7. Shawls
  8. Neck cosies
  9. Mitten strings
  10. Winter caps and berets

Almost all these can go to your local charity shop.

Or in a charity bag for collection.

And even moth eaten and orphan gloves and mittens can go to recycling.

Or to a local knitting group for re-use.

Well done for anything you let go.

You really will be thankful when winter comes and everyone can find stuff easily.

I hope today's gentle declutter prompt helped.
