Thank you for setting it:T Although its very much inspired by loopy chriss who introduced the concept of declutter 100 things in 10 days, so 10 things a day.
I work so much better with numerical targets so that's why I set it. It's hard going but I still have clutter around in the really bad areas. And these rooms need to transition into exciting new things

morning all
today i will mostly be delving into the world of christmas.
the plan is to go over my mums at the weekend and take the rather large pile of stuff im getting together for her along with various family members christmas and birthday gifts.
Not sure how much of this will count as decluttering but i will be using lots of wrapping paper and cellophane from the mountian of those ive amassed and some of the gifts are handmade things from my stash cupboard and things ive had in the pressie stash so it will be clearing space in a way.
perfumes went down really well when i gave them to the organiser last night he used those as a reminder for others to bring things in and seemed really pleased. more space in my cupboards for meSPC~12 ot 124

Good Morning all..
I have hit the ground running two days ago. Was going to wait until the weekend but looking at so much rubbish was driving me mad.
I made piles of "stuff".. 2 bags of rubbish from my stationary drawers, 1 bag to shred of rubbish that was sat in a box under my bed, 2 now empty boxes are squished and ready for the bin men, one pile of clothes to sort for charity/eBay, another bag of clothes put aside two months ago for the same reason, shoes for eBay, shoe boxes to send to the charity shop, with a chest that I used to store all my toiletries in that I don't need any more and 3 "throw" cushions that are taking up vital space...
...and a cat to find somewhere in the middle of all this...:rotfl:
At least it's a start eh?“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent".0 -
228-229 two large pretty wicker baskets - used as hampers
230 paper cellophane and ribbons from stash - used as wrappings
231 cards from stash - written and ready to go
232-240 9 made from stash or bought ages ago presents
hope you find the cat Kat! youve certainly made some serious progress well done.SPC~12 ot 124

I'm getting a little impatient with the small pile of stuff I have that is listed for selling. I have sold a few things but some things don't seem popular even though the prices are very low. I just want it gone and almost don't care if I just give it away. Anyhow, got someone coming today for the steamer:D.
Took 4 bags of stuff to the animal shelter CS today. They were really pleased:). I did buy a large tin while I was there for £1 but that is for storing my veg seed in.0 -
some more old newspapers and other papers out this morning, fb sale has gone this evening - a nice £5 in my pocket for something i have never used! I've really got to start on the spare room, it is needed now as an office more than ever, so will battle that one at the weekend again. Hopefully the other bits and pieces ive put on the fb selling site will go and that will make some more room for me!! Happy Decluttering everyone! xxSPC6 #116 £652.75
