Refreshing Your Closet for Spring

Spring cleaning is one of the most essential and feel-good tasks that you can do each year! It's the perfect time to transition your closet to fit the season’s styles and make space for a new rotation of clothes to enter! Plato’s Closet is the ideal place to sell your gently used clothing and gain some extra cash for your new additions to your wardrobe!

With Earth Day happening this month, it's especially important to be mindful of your impact by sustainably managing the cycle of clothes coming in and out of your closet. Instead of tossing out clothes you no longer wear, consider selling them to Plato's Closet. You'll keep clothes out of landfills, give someone else the chance to enjoy them, and earn some cash in the process. The opportunity of giving your clothes a second life helps continue and extend the lifespan of the clothes, instead of contributing to an over-production of clothes that go in the waste within the next year.

I recently cleaned out my closet and finally let go of clothing I had held onto for years. But I also rediscovered a few forgotten pieces—like this purple long sleeve, that I use for those chilly spring days! 

Cleaning your closet is such a rewarding experience! You get to go through the clothes you’ve held onto over the years, notice which items no longer serve you, and find yourself caught in a loophole of memories attached to certain pieces.

The physical declutter quickly turns into a mental refresher, leaving you feeling refreshed with an organized wardrobe and ready to help someone else love the clothes just like you did! Plus, it gets you excited to use your extra Plato’s Closet money that you earn from selling to be able add a fun new, sustainable addition to your closet for the new season. 

Thinking sustainably and decluttering your closet isn't something to do one day, but rather something to live by and act on every so often to feel good on the inside and out!
