Ways to Sell Clothes Without Leaving Your Home (Or Having a Garage Sale)

I shared a lengthy and somewhat philosophical idea for a keepable resolution yesterday. Today, I'm keeping it short and sweet. Get rid of stuff you hate. I know.

This post is sponsored by The Home Depot. When we were looking for houses, the number of bathrooms wasn't a concern. I always clicked "2 or more" on the real estate website search.

I am so excited to get a "new" desk! It's not new at all, and it isn't even new to me! It was in my room as a child. I do love furniture that's free and nice.

I … [Read more...]
