National Old Stuff Day is observed annually on March 2nd and is all about getting rid of the old and trying something new.
The obvious old things we can start with tend to be clutter and old, unused things around the house. Maybe it’s time to spring clean your wardrobe and get all those bits you haven’t worn in a long time over to charity. But if you’re a bit of a hoarder and the idea of separating yourself from any of your things “in case it comes in handy” doesn’t scare you, it can be as simple as ditching your old route to work for a new one. Trying a new type of food. You could try a new way of doing something, or you could even try and make something new out of somebody else’s old stuff and get yourself to a vintage store or charity shop.
However you choose to celebrate National Old Stuff Day, we hope it makes your day a little bit different from the same old.
HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalOldStuffDay
Approach the day with a new attitude. Consider alternatives to each of the choices you make each day. Is there a better or equal alternative? Try making a new choice when it is available.
Some other suggestions for ridding yourself of some old stuff and ways include:
- use an old item for a new use
- look at things from a new perspective
- throw out all you know about something and relearn it all anew
- take something old and freshen it up—clean it, paint it, fix it, give it a haircut
- order a small instead of a large
