2014 decluttering thread (part 3)

Becky_2

MadamMim2013, good luck with your car booth tomorrow. Hope you make lots of money.

I have achieved loads today since OH attended a training course:
* I cut back the lavender in the garden and dealt with some more weed. The garden bin is full now ready for collection next week.
* I hoovered and cleaned the bathroom
* 2 bottles of conditioners used up as a cleaning product.
* 1 hand cream used up
* I dealt with some unopened mail and either filed it or shredded it

Off to watch TV now and chill.

Getting a skip delivered today, so hopefully all the bits of the old conservatory will go out of the garden, and I can have our garden back :T


Having a big skip, so can tackle the garage as well. Definite progress here. Still listing on Ebay, but going away for Easter so will have to close everything down soon.

Think I was a bit optimistic there, the garden rubble will fill the skip, but garden is looking fabulous and so much bigger without all the rubbish :T

I found some more stuff to declutter :T

118. Top - CS
119. Top - CS
120. Top - CS
121. Trousers - CS
122. DVD - sold and posted
123. Dress - CS

I've also sorted out some things to go to one of those nearly new shops - I will list them when I've actually taken them there (next week), they won't be coming back into the house as if they are unsold the owner will donate them to charity for you.

Thanks Becky2, we had a fab day today.. came home with an empty trailer!!!! Yesssssss :j:j (& only a little bit in the boot!)
I made way over what I hoped for and my boys & OH made some ££ too:j
All in all a fantastic result

glad you had such a profitable and clutter clearing car boot madamMim - well done.

took 3 big bags down the CS over the weekend
broken clock, broken plate and tatty old car seat cover all binned
carrier bag of stuff went into the clothes bank
carrier of bottles went in the bottle bank
small pile of batteries went into the battery recycling bin at the local supermarket

mrs-moneypenny

Taken my stuff off to the nearly new shop so:-

124. Trousers
125. Dress
126. Trousers
127. Trousers

(had to get rid of loads of clothes as I lost weight!).

If they don't sell, then I will donate straight to charity.

Haven't posted for a while but my outs for the past couple of weeks are:
8kg to cash 4 clothes = £4.00 in the kitty
Used up more toiletries and recycled packaging
Sold DD2's toy pram with accessories and about 6/7 dolls
Sold 5 children's jigsaws (more money earnt for them to spend on 'clutter'!)
2 bags of garden rubbish from back garden
Weeds and hedge cuttings from front
Cleaned out car and binned various bits hidden under the seats
Had 3rd bedroom (to become DD1's room) plastered last week so had to empty it - not that there was much in there but it still needed to go - some recycled/binned and single bed for free cycle
DD's had a further sort out of teddies this am - big bag of them to go!
Bag of new baby items to OH's colleague who's wife has recently had a baby - these were from my nappy cake making days and I still have some left over stock to sell/donate etc
Probably more but can't think at the moment!

My de-cluttering speed can currently be described as slow but sure.

Do LPs sell on eBay?

I've a load of old folk ones.

OH is maintaing his new leaf. We went through the underbed storage drawers yesterday and got rid of a pair of trousers, some shorts. Lots of polo shirts and some cotton shirts.

Feel like we are getting somewhere at last!
