Why not do an annual clothes, toys or just general junk declutter! A great way to feel better about your living space is to declutter, and in terms of clothes, this uncovers old favourites whilst making room for new purchases. You could also donate any unwanted clothes to a charity shop or local homeless charity, which will put them to good use.
