My grandma is practicing Swedish death cleaning by giving things away to her family. She might not know it, but she's carrying out a practice called Döstädning, or Swedish death cleaning — a philosophy of getting your house in order before you die. Tegan Forder's grandmother is giving away items to her family in a practice known as Swedish death cleaning. Facebook Marketplace is also a useful platform for giving things away for free like furniture, bags of clothes, and kids' shoes. AdvertisementI've learned that decluttering is a lesson in patience if you are doing it thoughtfully — just as the Swedish death cleaning philosophy dictates.
