This is so on point for me at the moment. I’m on phase 2 of my mission to declutter and only take things I need or have particular sentimental value with me to my new, smaller home.
Like you I find the temptation to buy a bargain enticing. Now I’m gifting many of things I bought in that way!!
I love the idea of only keeping what we need and v much Swedish death cleaning - especially as my husband’s a hoarder. HOWEVER, how on earth do you manage to be minimal with babies and children? My baby has more stuff than I do!
Haha, this made me laugh! I’m with you that my kids own more than I do! Well, I have a post actually about some simple ways I try to manage the laps with kids. It isn’t perfect but it’s a starting point and has worked well for me over the years to be strict and care a little less about how many cute outfits they have too! I’ll pop a link below so you can see if it’ll inspire you ☺️

Gifting things is a great idea! 😄
That’s a very smart time to declutter when you’re about to move, I respect you on this!
