Decluttering 2013, the saga continues ...

164 on Friday night, bag of teatowels washed & back to the theatre.
So 164 items out of the house but 168 squares crocheted together using 18 balls of yarn so although they haven't actually left the house I have a usable blanket now rather than a pile of squares and balls on wool on a shelf so I think that's pretty good.
I'm raring to go with December. November needed me £101 selling 'clutter' on Gumtree and a further £8.74 on Etsy.
So I'm hoping for 300 items actually out of the house in December and at least £100, preferably £150 from selling stuff.
Good luck everyone.Initial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000

After a successful and slightly frantic 300 item declutter in November, I've decided to go for a festive 40 item fling for December. So far we have decluttered:
3 books (my daughter got rid of these off her own bat, she's been converted!)
Tricycle - sold on ebay
Clock radio - ebay
2 razors
Skin scrubber
3 more items have bids on ebay, so those will be going too.0 -
1 - bottle of nail varnish remover that was empty in the bathroom recycled.
