    48 & 49 - 2 cross stitch kits sold on Ebay - posted
    50 - 1 book finished and ready for the next chazza run - CS


    I've also done half of OH's ironing to take back next weekend, so that means I can crack on with Ebaying his gear once I've finished the other half. I shan't count that into my decluttering total though, as technically it's his clutter, but at my house - hopefully briefly! :-)

    Well I managed to get started at the weekend with a suitcase from the loft. It's got a lot of bits and bobs in it and some have been listed on ebay. By sunday, if I haven't managed to find homes (outside our house!) for the suitcase and everything in it, then it will be going to a charity shop.

    Will add a list of things tonight but I think I'm up to 62/2016 :)

    Just a tip - if you have books/dvds/cds etc that you no longer want, and can't seem to get rid of to friends or through selling etc, try the cashback sites such as musicmagpie and ziffit. I did this in January and sent off a lot of dvds and cds. You don't get a lot for them but it adds up and you get rid of them quicker than keeping them for a boot sale unless you have got one coming up very soon.

    Good luck declutterers!

    Can I join (a little bit late)? Have sorted my daughter's bedroom out this year already - I counted up 300 items altogether so will aim for 1,000 by the end of the year
