one for one...

spring cleaning has kicked in a little late, but i am starting to deep clean, de-clutter and reorganize around the house one project at a time.  i have a rule that for every one new thing i bring home, one has to be thrown out or donated.  my "one for one" rule.

if you buy an item to replace a broken one then you must throw the old one out.

if you buy a item because it is fun, pretty or a "must have", then you must find an item to donate.

and of course there is just the good old rule, that you must donate if:
~it doesn't fit
~you haven't worn it in over a year
~you don't need it or use it
