Courtney Love's Auction Nirvana

Los Angeles (E! Online) - Teen Spirit has never smelled so lucrative.

Courtney Love has announced plans to hawk the bulk of late husband Kurt Cobain's belongings, with at least a portion of the proceeds going to charity.

"I'm going to have a Christie's auction," Love told spinner.com. "[My house] is like a mausoleum.

"My daughter doesn't need to inherit a giant hefty bag full of flannel f---ing shirts...A sweater, a guitar and the lyrics to 'Teen Spirit'—that's what my daughter gets. And the rest we'll just f---ing sell."

The 42-year-old former Hole frontwoman tied the knot with the ill-fated Nirvana frontman in 1992, the same year she gave birth to daughter Frances Bean. Love said that her inability to move past the suicide of her iconic husband nearly 13 years ago was a major impetus in deciding to put the Cobain collection on the block.

"I still wear his pajamas to bed," she said. "How am I ever going to go form another relationship in my lifetime wearing Kurt's pajamas?

"Everyone's been positive and behind me on it," she told the site. "We'll make a lot of money and give a bunch of it to charity."

A publicist for the entertainer said that the logistics still needed to be worked out, including date of the sale, exactly how much would be earmarked for charity and which organization(s) would receive the spoils.

The planned sale comes about a year after Love struck a $50 million deal with Primary Wave Music Publishing for a 25 percent stake in Cobain's music royalties.

As documented on her blog at moonwashedrose.com, Love has been reiventing herself in recent months. She boasted online that she has had dropped 44 pounds, fixed her self-proclaimed botched nose job, taken up a macrobiotic eating plan and, most importantly, remained sober for more than a year.

"All i care about is that my self esteem is [limitless] and intact, and that nothing and no situation effects my self esteem," she wrote.

The new Love has not only rekindled friendships with the clean-living likes of

Gwyneth Paltrow and

Chris Martin, but in attempting to relaunch her stagnating musical career.

Her new album, Nobody's Daughter, is due out later this year. Love told spinner.com that the 11 tracks deal in part with the ghosts of relationships past, with not only Cobain but rockers

Trent Reznor and

Billy Corgan and actor

Edward Norton as well—not to mention an unnamed recent paramour.

"There are two songs that are specifically about this guy," she said. "The rest of them have bits of Kurt, bits of Edward, bits of lots of people in them."
