That's the old dining set decluttered. It's good to get ahead of target (day 10), it'll be good to finish this challenge early. My energy is faltering but it's good to see some order!!

Weekend again so back to the clutter mine:
Bin:
96. dried up glue
97. assorted school stationery items
98. curtain tiebacks for curtains we no longer own
99. rusty drawing pins
100. instructions & packaging for a watch
101. a handfull of screws
102. dried up paintbrushes
Recycling:
103. an envelope of paperwork
104. a printer I didn't even know was in the house
CS:
105. small ornament
106. jigsaw roll
107. pack of underwear
108 decorative mugs
109. small plastic bat
110. - 112. books
So much more to go but I'm just plodding on.
The back bedroom needs to be empty (or very near) before carpet layers arrive and, unfortunately, the room has become a dumping ground for the DSx2's 'stuff'. I can only get rid of the obvious at the moment
Later:
113. broken toy
114. plastic watch holder
115.- 121. jigsaws
122. travel bookletsI can cook and sew, make flowers grow.0 -
