Share the Wealth (and Warmth)

Does hosting a holiday party mean piling guests' coats on your bed? If so, it might be time to take a hard look at your closet. If it's crammed to capacity, it probably holds at least a few nonessential items. Donating coats and boots lessens clutter while helping those in need at a particularly vulnerable time. "By gathering up the winter wear in your closets, you're opening the space, and you're opening your heart," says Walsh. To donate shoes, he suggests Soles4Souls; for coats, mittens, and scarves, head to Goodwill.
