“Swedish death cleaning” may sound morbid, but it’s strangely uplifting. Here’s how to try it in time for spring.
that have come from Scandi shores, but allow us to introduce you to döstädning. Or, to call it by its infinitely more clickable name: Swedish death cleaning.To put it simply, döstädning is designed as an easy way for folks to purge their homes and organise their possessions in hopes that their families won’t be overburdened by their belongings once they pass away.
If you’re keen to give döstädning a go, Magnusson advises that you work top to bottom. Which means that, if you have boxes in the loft, you start there first, and work your way slowly through your home to the bottom-most floor. Much like the KonMari Method, the aim is to keep only those things that speak joy to the heart. However, Swedish death cleaning is primarily about being kind to others and making sure that people aren’t hurt by what they may find among your things after you’re gone.1) Begin with things that are out of sight
If you’ve stashed items away in boxes because you don’t want to deal with them, chances are your loved ones will feel the same. Gift them, donate them, or recycle them.If you don’t want them to find something and can’t get rid of it, store it in a way that will spare them later .
