How to stop throwing clothes on the floor
It made me
Pleased
 "My room looks soo much better now!"
How I did it: I still want to throw them on the floor. Every single day! But first I moved to only throwing them on a chair. Just like the game you played when you were little, the one where the floor was lava; nothing could touch the floor. I still kinda felt like this was cheating a little but it did limit the amount I could avoid dealing with. After awhile I made the chair lava as well! The only way the clothes are safe is if they are hung up! ;) |

How I did it: I ended up buying a couple of washing baskets from Argos, one for dirty clothes & one for clean clothes. So now instead of throwing all my clothes on the floor till I could be bothered to move them, I put them into a washing basket until I feel like dealing with them.Doesn't stop me being lazy but it does stop clothes being everywhere all over the floor Read how I did it…

How I did it: Am I completely cured of my bad littering ways? No, afraid not. When I get home and I'm tired, or I hop into the shower after a late night, I do forget to hang my clothes up properly. But it's more an exception than a rule now, so I say yay for me :). Read how I did it…

How I did it: Tossing clothes on the floor was a hard habit to break. I had circumstance on my side: my new house in the mountains has cold, damp concrete floors. The high humidity and damp floors make anything set on them susceptable to going moldy. Avoiding mildew was the main factor, but after a while the habit was broken and not I don't toss clothes on the floor no matter where I am. Read how I did it…

I do this for no reason
1 month ago
I will be deciding what to wear and try somethings on and what ever I dont want to wear I toss on my bed—and then Im in a hurry to leave so they just stay there until I come home and then I just want to lay down and poof the clothes end up in the corner on the floor..maybe I need to start picking clothes out at night so I have time to hang everything back up. Or at least when I come home take the 5 minutes or so it would take to hang everything back up….easier said than done though.

Wardrobe Makover Party - Oct 2, 2009
2 months ago
I decided to go ahead with this goal for real.
The main reason my clothes are all over my apartment is that I do not have room for them in my wardrobe anymore.
I have lived in this city for 9 years and I gathered so much stuff it’s unbelievable. I’m a pack rat. But definately I am not as much of a pack rat as my mom is – but I think in her case this might be some compensation syndrome for communist times where there was nothing in stores.
I try to overcome my tendency to gather things. I don’t mind this in only one case – when it comes to books as one day I want to have a really nice library room so I will need all of them :)
I must say that I changed my approach to things and gathering them after reading Dominique Loreau’s “L’art de la simplicite” – very good read for a pack rat :)
And doing it for real means that I am organizing a Wardrobe Makeover Party with my girl friends. I already send out an email with the date so now I have a deadline and I need to sort out my wardrobe by Oct 2. I want my friends to take as much of my clothes / bags / belts that I don’t need anymore as possible. The things that will not be taken by them I will give away to charity.
My wardrobe currently looks like in the attached picture…

It’s actually a lot easier to accomplish this goal when you have a new puppy that will urinate on anythign left on the floor. Unfortunately, I’ve just swapped this habit for throwing my clothes on doors, closets, hooks , chairs etc.

My house has been near to spotless now since the start of the year. No clothes on the floor. This could just be a temporary fase of cleanliness, so I’m gonna see if I can keep this up until february.

viobio asks,
“OK, so where should I put the "half-dirty" clothes that I wore once? If I put in closet, the dark will breed moths; on the floor they get hair and dust in them; on a hook the knits get stretched out. Maybe make room for a nice chair or two?”
