How I did it: It took me quite a while to get through this one because of the massive amount of clothes I own.  I moved an enormous walk-in into two small basic closets, so I have been challenged ever since we moved here.

I have one dresser that was over-flowing as well, so I had to remove everything & start with a clean slate.  I put back my favorites & bagged up the rest.  Then of the items I kept, I checked for wear & tear.  If anything needed to be mended, I sent them to the tailor & I donated the rest.

Yay!  I feel so free  :)

Lessons & tips: I am lucky enough to have a friend who loves to trade clothes, so I packaged up the better stuff that she wanted & mailed it off.   Take good pictures of clothes that you want to trade or sell on eBay! 

Resources: Items for mending/polishing, bags for donating, boxes for mailing, a camera & some time.
