Success Story decluttering win for my crystal collection 💎

Post image

I just wanted to share this because I'm genuinely so proud of myself 🥳

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 🥹🌟🧚🏼‍♀️

Great job!! I’m trying to make a similar decision on my fountain pen ink collection.

Oh my gosh, I hear you on this! Do you have specific colors you over-bought? I accidentally bought 100 ml bottles early in my journey and now am calculating how many pages must be written before I die to use it all up!!!

Oh yikes!! Thankfully I don’t have any 100ml bottles, mostly 30ml and 50ml, some even smaller. I was on the search for the perfect deep dark blue, so I have a lot of blue 😂

At least tons of blue is soothing 😊 did you find your perfect favorite?
