To Downsize or Not To Downsize

Have you ever had occasion to downsize?  Maybe the clutter is out of control?  Or maybe you just need to let go of some “stuff”?  Well, I’ve found myself in that predicament lately.  And just to give you an idea or two of my space (or lack thereof), thought I would share.


Sad but true, and yet, this is AFTER I started the process.  Believe me when I say it was even worse.  You see, this is the shelf, now here is a section of the floor



The biggest problem with de-cluttering is what to do with everything, especially when some of it isn’t even yours! 

Trash – check. 
Dump run – check. 
Donate – check. 
Sell – wait, you mean I can sell some of this stuff?  Time to take a closer look! 

Ahhhhhhhh, yes.  Some pretty nice treasures CAN be found.  I feel like I hit a gold mine.  Yes, a vintage gold mine.  For you see, sometimes de-cluttering can open up a whole new world.  Here is just a sample of what I found, and is now in my Etsy shop.


So if you have occasion to clear, de-clutter or downsize, take it from me, don’t just think about dumping it.  You could have a virtual gold mine on your hands!
