Did an hour and a bit this morning in the baby's room, whilst OH moved stuff around in the office. Both rooms now look SO much better - some stuff still to go but the cotbed is now in the right place and I can get into the baby's chest of drawers .

+ 1 teapot, sugar bowl, and 5 cups to friend - I LOVED this part tea set, but today was the day I decided to clear it... and today was the day that met friend's new fella for the first time - who spotted it straight away and said it would be lovely in his salon! All packed up and given to a very grateful new home.
+ last year's xmas cards - recycling
+ old museum leaflets - recycling
+ top - cs
+ two more cups and saucers - cs
+ sugar bowl, milk jug and plate - cs
+ crafty bits dd never used - cs
+ 10 books - cs

Packaging from above - recycling
Scaled up kettle - electrical recycling
Old iron - electrical recycling
Aromatherapy set - charity bag
Manky sponge from bathroom - bin
Manky cloth from under bath - bin
Oddments of soap - bin
Shoe horn - charity bag
Old parish magazines - recycling
Children's book - charity bag
Adult book - charity bag
3 boxes of LPs (about 120 of them!) - freegled and picked up

I'm still amazed at where it's all coming from, considering we must have got rid of about 1,000 items already since January!!!

Guess I must be one of those hoarders I keep hearing about!

Well done to you all for your decluttering.

We went to Cash for clothes this morning with 73 kilogramms of books (mainly books from the 80's which couldn't get sold on Zapper etc.) only got £7.30 for it but at least it is out of the house now. Also got rid of a black sack of clothes and got £4.50 for that, the wardrobe looks so much tidier today.Next thing to sort out is the shredding.

Have a nice weekend.

I did a car boot today and cleared out loads of things And came home with £57.75 profit

Most things i sold for £1 or 50p and a few things for a couple of quid - gonna average it out and say it must have been about 50 items gone so far so good for June target

Must say I have no idea where all this stuff is coming from -even my parents are very impressed I have accumulated all this stuff! Also finally caught up with all the washing today - hopefully will get more stuff for cash for clothes bag.
