The Breakup Basket: Painlessly Edit Your Closet

Introducing the Breakup Basket

I keep a basket in my closet under my dresses. Every time I try something on that doesn't quite fit, isn't my color or even just bothers me, I throw it in the basket. At the end of the day, if something I wore made me frustrated or distracted or left me feeling less than my best, I throw it in the basket.

Shoes that hurt my feet, purses that swallowed my phone and keys—it feels fantastic to toss it all in the basket and walk away in my jammies. 

A breakup basket is an essential tool for a well-edited closet. Call Closets of Tulsa today for your Free Consultation and 3-D Closet Design: 918.609.0214.

I call this tool the breakup basket. Over time, I've found that I do not pull things back out of it. A breakup basket helps you temporarily disconnect from things you don't really need or want in your life. Eventually, you’re ready to move on.

Choose a breakup basket that fits seamlessly into your closet. Closets of Tulsa can help—call or text us to book your Free Consultation and 3-D Closet Design: 918.609.0214.

Edit Your Closet with Less Effort

 Clients get excited when I tell them about the breakup basket. They know they need to get rid of stuff, but it’s too easy to save closet cleaning for another day... and another... and another. The breakup basket takes no time at all!

Choose a breakup basket as stylish and functional as the rest of your closet.

The breakup basket makes it easier to be more aggressive about getting rid of things, despite all our reasons for keeping them. Setting pieces aside without totally giving them away today gives you time to process. And removing them from your line of sight—your shopping zone—gives you space to untrain your emotional attachment to them.

PRO TIP: Don't pay to dry clean what you won't be excited to get back. Take a moment to consider each item before you put it back on its hanger or shelf.

Whether or not you’re short on space, a built-in laundry hamper makes a lovely breakup basket. Closets of Tulsa offers so many options, from single, double and triple hampers with soft-close drawer slides to pullout wire baskets.

Using a built-in laundry hamper, storage bench or wire basket as your breakup basket keeps it off the floor of your closet. Questions? Call or text Closets of Tulsa: 918.609.0214.

Experiment with a breakup basket, and stick with it for a while. You’ll enjoy the instant gratification and calm of creating more space in your closet. Your wardrobe will shrink, but it will be painless!
