October 12, 2020 By Dana White | 4 Comments

This one makes me so happy! But I do have to clarify that you can fill your hands with things to take to their homes together to cut down on trips. Just don't set anything down, in a pile or a box. Hi Dana! I've been following you for years, and I want to thank you so much for all you do. This past weekend I went to visit my 80 year old mom, … [Read more...]

A Donate Box Helps Create Good Habits – One Reader’s Experience

March 16, 2020 By Dana White | 3 Comments

I loooooove this story. I experienced the same thing. As I worked on decluttering, my kids picked up the basics from me. I don’t always feel like I’m passing on my new, declutterer habits to my daughters. They like collections, and they treasure coloring pages from church and school. Then I walk into my bedroom and notice something in my … [Read more...]

From Our Mailbox: 93 Shirts!

February 10, 2020 By Dana White | 5 Comments

I love this story. I gasped at the shirt count, but then admitted that I have probably been in exactly this situation in the past. I especially love how she used the actual numbers to help loving shirt-givers understand that the giving needed to stop! Yay math! I just finished a purging (really, the only word that truly describes it) of … [Read more...]

February 3, 2020 By Dana White | 12 Comments

I love this post by Molly. I'm a huge fan of figuring out cleaning and organizing strategies that work for your unique family, and that's exactly what she did!
