This is the list of "guidelines" I follow when I declutter my sons room. Since his birthday is this week, I will be decluttering once again to make way for the stuff he will recieve.
TOYS
*Anything that makes noise or is annoying
*Toys that are plastic
*Anything broken, missing pieces, cracked, etc.
*Anything not played with within the last 2 months
*Anything not put away where it goes
*Toys that take up too much room....ie..the whole toybox
*Tyos overflowing out of the toybox onto the floor--exception train table
CLOTHES/SHOES
*Too small
*not in season
*Anything that won't fit over my sons big head
*Too big (goes into a storage bin)
*Things that he has never worn
*Things that he doesn't like
*Anything stained or ripped
*socks missing mates
*shoes that are too small
*shoes that are torn or splitting
*shoes never worn or worn only once
*anything annoying or uncomfortable
GAMES/PUZZLES/BOOKS
*books with ripped pages
*books with writing
*books never read
*books with bad content
*missing pieces
*never played with
*boring
*too advanced (goes into storage bin)
*games that are confusing to play

Though I'm not zen-propelled :) I appreciate your post on de-cluttering. I, too, am in the process of simplifying our home and my daughters' room (2 who share) is making it's debut of simplicity this week. So, as I was looking for some guidelines, your blog popped up. Good job on getting your blog out there!
