Minimalism Challenge

As I have been reading books and watching documentaries on minimalism, I kept hearing about getting rid of one item each day for a year. I decided to do the challenge for 1 month to see how it goes! I started March 1st and these are things I got rid of just in 1 month.

So here was my March Challenge!

Day 1     Candle
Day 2     Pen holder
Day 3     Dog dish (Brand new so I decide to sell it online)
Day 4     A little bird decoration
Day 5     Dog clothing (10)
Day 6     Plastic dish
Day 7     Soccer Ball
Day 8     Pajamas (1)
Day 9     Magnet
Day 10   Movies (7)
Day 11   Mugs & cups (11)
Day 12   Baby bouncer
Day 13   Necklaces (3)
Day 14   Old College Textbooks (5)
Day 15   Lap desk
Day 16   Jewelry organizer
Day 17   Desk shelf
Day 18   CDs (8)
Day 19   Glue sticks (5)
Day 20   Note pads and stationary
Day 21   Craft things such as stickers and scrapbook stuff
Day 22   Bag
Day 23   Shoes (4 pairs)
Day 24   Skirt
Day 25   Shirts (5)
Day 26   Jackets (2)
Day 27   Binders (2)
Day 28   Board games (2)
Day 29   Flower vase
Day 30   Brooch
Day 31   Hair ties and cosmetics (3)

I had gotten rid of a lot in just 31 days. Some of the things I sold online and got some money for them which is a huge score! Since these were most things that I wanted to get rid of anyways I didn't list them online for that much money. People love getting deals so the items got snagged quickly! After doing this challenge for only a month I feel happier and lighter. Because I have less stuff now there is less to clean and I felt like I saved myself some time and really focus on things that were important to me.

I know I still can get rid of more things and I haven't reached the point where I feel satisfied, but I am definitely getting closer to that point! My closet size has been cut in half since I started my journey of organizing, and I know I am almost there with getting to the clicking point (Konmari method).
