Tips to Start 2023 Organized
One way to help you feel renewed and energized for the New Year is to do a deep cleaning of your wardrobe and start 2023 organized. This will help you do away with anything you don't wear or need, help you to better see what you have, and make getting dressed each day simpler, quicker, and dare we say it, joyful! Plus, it will make your bedroom look and feel more organized and will also create space for the new items you will be shopping for this holiday.
Here are five ways to make the most out of cleaning your closet and leave you feeling refreshed and excited for the New Year ahead!
1. Donate to charity
Start by giving away some of your clothes that are still in good condition. Donating your clothes to charity will give you a warm feeling, knowing that you are helping others in need.
We love envisioning the recipients of our loved belongings that we let go of! You never know which garment might become someone else’s new favorite.
2. Rent out your awesome pieces to keep making more money from the same clothes
If you need more space in your closet but don't want to say goodbye to your clothes, renting them out is a great option. You can make some extra money while spreading the joy of a beautiful piece of clothing to someone else.
There are many websites that will do all the work for you. All you have to do is sign up and send them your clothes. They will take care of the rest, and you will make money every time someone rents your clothes.
3. Make some extra cash from clothes you don’t wear
If you want to get rid of some of your old clothes, you can trade them in for cash. This is a great way to make some extra money to boost your holiday shopping and declutter your closet at the same time. To do this, you can either take your clothes to a consignment store or sell them online.
The Maajic might be right inside your closet! You can start by going through your Maaji pieces and selling the ones you don’t need in the Maaji.co secondhand section!
4. Do closet exchanges with friends
You can get some new clothes without spending any money by asking your friends if they want to exchange some of their clothes with you. This is so fun to do with a group of girlfriends and mutual friends! You could also hold an outdoor meet-up and get everyone to bring a few clothes that they wish to swap.
One Maajic maker even suggested each friend at the clothing swap pick a piece for someone else and give them a compliment.
5. Reuse your old clothing
There are plenty of sustainable ways to reuse old clothes rather than throw them in the landfill. It feels great to know you are doing your part to help take care of the environment.
If you have any clothes that are damaged, stained, or torn, you can take them to a recycling or upcycling company. They can recycle the materials or use parts of the clothes to make new things like face masks, padding for chairs and car seats, cleaning clothes, and industrial blankets.
¡Doing away with all of the clothes you never wear will give you a sense of relief and new energy to start 2023!
