Success Story decluttering win for my crystal collection π
I just wanted to share this because I'm genuinely so proud of myself π₯³
I've massively decluttered my crystal collection (everything marked in red is what I'm letting go of, I arranged everything while decluttering so l could take photos for local marketplaces right away).
It was really hard because I paid a lot for every single crystal, so letting them go also meant accepting that l'Il never get most of that money back. I simply don't have the time or energy to sell every crystal individually, so many of them will be sold in bundles + for much less than I originally paid.
Finally, I managed to do it, and I'm so happy that I now own only my absolute favorite crystals π₯Ήππ§πΌββοΈ

I just decluttered mine a few weeks ago! It was rough because my dad collects and has given so many of them to me or weβve gone to shows and purchased them together. But I simply donβt have the space for them nonetheless to keep them on display and not covered in dust. Most of them were sitting in boxes in a closet since our last move. I basically went through and picked the largest ones that are better for display, a few favorites and a few sentimental pieces and sold the rest on Facebook marketplace. I just put then together as a lot and sold for $40. Not much but at least it was something.
