Weekly Challenge: Spark Joy 📦

Complete one of the Lost 200 point DIY Objectives through telling your clutter to “get lost” with a trip to the local thrift store.

Details:

Lost offers two DIY objectives, which are both worth 200 points! The objective this challenge refers to asks you to get rid of items in your house that no longer serve you. In other words, we’re telling our clutter to “get lost”!

1) Choose a focus.

This is a 200 point objective, so ideally it should take a few hours to complete. That said, the scope of the decluttering is up to you.

Before you begin, answer the following questions for yourself:

  • Is there a spefic amount of time you would like to spend decluttering?

  • Would you like to focus on a specific area of your home?

  • Do you have a goal of how many pieces of clutter you would like to get rid of?

2) Once you’ve got a clear goal, it’s time to declutter! Systematically work through your home with your goal(s) in mind, and create a pile of items you no longer wish to keep.

3) Get rid of your stuff! Take it to a thrift shop, give it to friends or find another way to dispose of it. This objective is not complete until the items have been removed from your residence. (We don’t want any lingering bags and boxes in the garage or car!)

4) Take a photo of yourself getting rid of your items (e.g. in front of a Goodwill or handing off the items to a friend) and share it in a comment on our Facebook Page on the post “Weekly Challenge- Spark Joy 📦”.

5) Alongside your photo, tell us a bit about your experience completing this objective.
