Decluttering 2012, this year, definitely ...

happytails

Afternoon!!!

Well got a near full bin bag of rubbish from my car *embarrassed* So just need to give it a good clean when my friend is here to watch kids. Got a charity run to do as didnt get it done yesterday. And 2 ebay parcels will be going out today.

Hoping to clear a few surfaces of junk today, will see what i get done. Hoping my sorting will result in some free'd up plastic boxes i can store all my Ebay stuff in as that will look a lot tidier but im refusing to buy more lol

My daughter accidentally broke her tambourine/drum toy yesterday so we had lots of tears so going to see if i can pick one up at the charity shop later when i drop the other stuff off. I know its not decluttering but im replacing something i wanted to keep

Brought a carrier bag of toys back into the house from the car so need to sort that out so its not just dumped by the front door with all the coats i brought in to wash

Hiya
You have all been brilliant - I know to my cost how hard it is to get started. I have been busy clearing my wardrobes ( Notice plural lol). I sent 6 big boxes of clothes and 1 box of books to the charity shop last week. I had tried a few on Ebay as they were brand new and tagged, but they didn't sell, so CS it was. My wardrobes are nearly empty now. I have lost loads of weight, so none of them fitted me. I have had to replace a few bits in smaller size, but def either ebay or outlet shopping - nice and cheap.
I can get rid of a few more clothes, then I will start on the loft. It is absolutely packed!! We have loads of computer stuff up there, some craft stuff, printers, shoes and bages and I think more clothes. It will take me forever to clear. Luckily the charity I chose is Air Ambulance, and they collect from us, which is great.

me too Judi, only in my case they're reddish brown lippies! I only ever end up wearing the same 2 or 3. Am not sure how to tackle these because I like having them just in case I fancy a change and some of them are bright ones I have for when I go on holiday and get a tan and then the red brown ones don't look right.

I've been at work today and working tomorrow,so I'm not going to get much done.

I'm feeling full of vigour though,as the flat is looking good,especially with the last declutter.

I've got two ceramic bowls to give away,which I think brings me up to my total.

Hi ma-ri-ella, nice to see another new name in the gang.

I didn't get into the cupboard in the kitchen I am afraid, got sidetracked by a hubby!!:mad:

Have a few things still on the list to deal with but am actually getting to the point of nothing to rid in the kitchen, even with the dreaded cupboard. It' just the tins cupboard but I know we have tins of food in there that we will never use, and Foodbank can! So it's got to be done.

Hope everyone has had a good day:)

I've got 13 more dvds to sell/give away:

Car is officially decluttered and cleaned. Afraid I didn't go charity, post office with eBay stuff or do any other form of de cluttering today ah well.
