reader. We all get so gung-ho (and rightly so!) about decluttering, but sometimes we forget that there are people who can really use our old items. Next time you have a pile of clothes to give away, remember this idea from Deborah."you mentioned giving away clothing to charities...
please list any nursing homes in your area...I work at one (nurse) and some of the people have very little clothing.
I took a huge trash sack full of gently worn clothing up there, and you would have thought it was Christmas!!!
they were all so pleased to have "new" stuff."

Yep, with Christmas just around the corner, donating old clothes to charity institutions does help for the clutter to disappear in my home. This now makes it,a lot easier for me to clean my house faster.Thanks for the great idea!!!
I have donated my old and used clothes to an orphanage here in the city and some of it to the Salvation Army. Now, it's a lot easier for me to clean my room, the attic and the whole house. Thanks for sharing your ideas!!!
What a great idea. Laundry is so hard on their clothes that they wear out sooner so this is a win/win all around!

Absolutely right this tip is...de-cluttering is very essential for the house and for this it is necessary to do away with some old and very dear things...to replace them with new ones surely.
Your junk can be another one's treasure. This is really good idea especially for those who has growing children with a cluttered closet already. A closet-full of clothes may be really trimmed down. More space, easier to organize. Thanks for reminding us of this possibility.
i totally agree with this post. We all keep far to many clothes and could be used by someone who needs it. I many have to give my wardrobe a good clean out and get some old stuff to the charity shop
