Is it Time to Clean out your Wardrobe?
 With spring here, it's a great time to go through your wardrobe and refresh it for the coming season, and to work out what you need to get you through the coming months. If you're not sure if this applies to you go through the following list, if you say yes to any question, maybe it's time for a rethink.
* You can't shut the wardrobe door because there is too much stuff trying to make it's way out.
* Some of your clothes are older than your kids (and your kids are over 5).
* You have to iron everything again after it's been in the cupboard.
* You don't iron anything til you need to wear it because it'll only get crushed in the wardrobe.
* You keep buying the same item over and over because you can never find the ones you have (eg. black trousers, white shirts, t-shirts).
* You use wire coathangers because they're thinner and you can fit more into your wardrobe - even though they're wrecking your clothes.
* There is dust on the shoulders.
* Your wardrobe is stuffed but you still feel that you have nothing to wear.
* Your wardrobe isn't just one wardrobe it has expanded into every spare wardrobe in the house.
* Your skinny or fat wardrobe is taking up all the space.
If any of these points start ringing alarm bells in your head then it's time to sort through what you have, need and want. Some clothes may still have wear in them, but it might be time to let them go.
If they no longer fit you, if they have stains or marks on them that you can't remove, if they're just old-fashioned are making you look older, why not let them go to a charity who can use them.
It's also worthwhile going through your shoes, and storing your summer shoes and bringing out your winter shoes and boots.
