Day 11 - The Life Changing Magic of Tidying


Hi Friends,

So today I wanted to talk to you about a book, which may sound a bit odd but this book is amazing. It's called 'The Life Changing Magic of Tidying' by Marie Kondo. I saw it going around the internet a before the summer and I decided to put it in my amazon basket!


When I went to Singapore for a holiday in August I decided it was time to read it and it actually IS life changing. Every time I pick it up, even if it's just for 5 mins, I suddenly want to throw away everything I own. EVERYTHING. So I came back from holiday and gave my friends and local charity shop most of my jewelry, about 2/3 of my t-shirts and tons of make up. There's so many other parts of the flat I want to de-clutter though!

I think the main point of the book is to realize that you don't need to keep all the things that you hoard. You don't NEED a shirt that you haven't worn for 5 years... you will never wear it again! So please please please buy it and have a read. Over the next few months I want to do even MORE to declutter in my flat. I want to tackle my wardrobe, lingerie chest, kitchen cupboards, shoes, bags and so many more areas in the flat. 

I'll definitely take you on this journey of 'Living with Less' - time to cut my hoarding habits :)

Love & hugs,
