Well, it is almost April 1st so I spent some time today getting ready for my first involvement with Project 333. See this post to find out what it is all about.
Here is my cupboard with most of what I have chosen for my project.
There are 2 pairs of trousers missing as they are currently in the laundry basket. This makes a total of 32 items so I thought I would keep a spare space, in case I thought of something else.
Here they are listed.

I will be putting other clothes back in the wardrobe as I don’t want to move them to another room.
I have put aside 5 pairs of shoes to go – I will try to sell them on Gumtree but otherwise they will go via Freecycle.
I have not culled many clothes as I do not have a huge collection. However, a few things will be re-homed.
This is a black polar fleece vest which I re-modelled from a hand-me-down and it is really too big so out it goes. The shirt is a cotton sleeveless one but the colour is not particularly flattering now that my hair colour has changed significantly.
This pile are a bit too tight so I have decided to put them in a bag and if they are still too tight in 12 months they will go. There is a skirt, pair of trousers and 2 jackets.
This shirt has been well-worn but has lost its sharpness of black and white – looking decidedly grey. I love the style so I plan to de-construct it to make a pattern. Off to the sewing room for this one.
I will endeavour to update my progress each day. Hopefully there will be more successes than failures.

Well done Fairy…that is a good number of clothes when you list them and there seems to be lots that would mix and match. Good luck with it.
Thanks, Barb. i will keep updating how I am going.
