We're intending to move this year, and I don't want to move things I could have dumped prior to moving (like I did when we last moved 11yrs ago and I was heavily preggers).

So, my intention is 2015 in 2015 ...

We'll be moving in 2015 or 2016 and I definitely don't want to move unnecessary stuff. We still have boxes in the garage that we brought to this house nearly 10 years ago! Skip required, me thinks...
I was thinking about 352 items to de-clutter but 2015 is probably needed. Are you really going for that amount?

Sorted through Christmas decorations before putting away. Broken ones banned. OK ones that I just don't love any more in CS bag

About to do this. Have already de-cluttered a few decorations but need to be more ruthless!

Yup, I really am It's "only" 5 to 6 items per day, I must have done 30 items today alone.

I reckon it may get tougher as the year goes on ... but we moved so many boxes last time, which like you haven't really ever been unpacked fully, that I don't want to do it again!

Not felt at my best but have managed to say goodbye to another 8 books while cleaning and sorting through my 'library' Also moved on half a dozen small sweet tins into the pile for my sister for when she visits later in the year.
The tins were in 2 old cat food boxes along with other old jewellery boxes which have also been culled and the 2 cat food boxes are in recycling. Only little bits, but it's still things going out rather than things coming in. :j

Oh dear, negative decluttering today I went in the loft to put the dex away and brought out a box been in there since I moved. Opened it to find 2 x very nice casserole dishes I forgot I had. Now in kitchen cpd awaiting a decision.

Just found a salad mixer thingy I forgot I had, I never use it so I might flog it on Ebay or if anyone wants it...?

...but now I am posting.

Had a big surge before Christmas and made the most progress I have in ages.

Sold 38 plastic plates on a local FB page today.

Loads of post Christmas recycling gone out.

Decs and tree coming down tomorrow. Cards already in a bag to be recycled in the box at M&S.
