2015 - No Clutter To Be Seen

lynnejk

Hiya everyone


I have tidied the shelf under the other table in the sitting room, filed what I want to keep and recycled the rest.


Three more books in the bag for the cs, together with a coat I never wear and some excess kitchen sieves.


All the newspapers, magazines and advertising leaflets in the house, except today's newspaper, bagged for recycling.


I'm not counting recycling, as I do that all the time, so just seven items to add.


Hope you all have a fantastic Friday

Having rolled up everything in my clothing drawers I opened the airing cupboard where the towel monsters live.


It was quite tidy as we went through it a few months ago. But, with only two people in the house, why do I need sooooooo many?

I asked DH who suggested we got rid of the "shabby ones"


Shabby??? :eek::eek:


Turns out he doesn't like the bright pink ones as he hates the colour. He also thinks hand towels are a "waste of time."


13 towels on their way to recycling. Easy!


We have 11 bath or 'beach' size towels plus two pairs of hand towels should we have visitors.


Off to do some more rolling


Also - one cardigan I don't want to iron and don't like any way into recycling

71. I just had a frustrating time rearranging my chests of drawers as I wanted to move the small chest of drawers into the office and I didn't find one thing to declutter apart from an old tube of toothpaste.:mad:

72. Bins emptied and all old letters, flyers and takeaway menus into recycling bin.

73. Old rags used up to clean surfaces the cats use for food and cat litter tray so the rags were binned afterwards.

Morning all - thanks to everyone re specs, going to drop 5 pairs off at local specsavers, hockey stick in CS bag along with hearth set (weighs a ton!) Spent the weekend away at a friend's who has recently moved - house was perfect and no need for Kondo there. Must admit to opening a couple of cupboards to see if they were overflowing (they were not)and everything pristine. Had a great time and came home and back to the junkyard - bit disheartened but now have bit between my teeth so yesterday -
23. Knitting basket sorted and ten balls of wool in charity bag
24. bag of paperwork shredded and out to recycle
25. two tee shirts made into cloths as ripped
26. LO gammon decluttered into jacket potatoes with cheese
27. 4 jam jars washed and recycled

Have a clutter free day everyone

Ha ha - new to this thread and reading through backwards, started to read your post and thought you had got rid of 278 bottles of body lotion

No...not quite...but I do still have about 14 bottles in my stash :eek:

74. Old bottle of dog shampoo out. I might use the last drops to clean the floor or something.

75. End of a couple of bags of frozen vegetables cooked and used up to make pasta salad.

Yeah! I think I've finally finished decluttering the bathroom :j 6 more out of date/ unusable toiletries have been thrown away.

I've also had a brief tidy up, rehoming items : so literally decluttering rather than actually throwing things away. Although 2 craft items, which were free with card making magazine, but which I won't use, have been added to the CS pile.

I'm now at about 38 items - not bad for a couple of days work What has been interesting is the effect this is having on DH. He says he wants to join in and do some decluttering at the weekend too :T
