    3 items decluttered: a basket, a spoon, old undies. :)

    I would have come for the edible decluttering :)

    It's fun finding things to get out of the house isn't it? :)

    Happy decluttering.

    At the moment I am just picking up things randomly as I go along. Serious getting into cupboards after I come back from holiday, So, today:
    One really tatty jumper.
    Some more decorations that I found in the cupboard whilst putting the Christmas tree away,
    Fruit tea bags - where did they come from and how long have they been there?
    Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.

    Hi all,
    I've got rid of 6 items so far from the ironing pile (which was insanely high!). Im currently half way through the ironing so I may find more items yet! :rotfl:
    I am also decluttering the kitchen, I got rid of a few tupperware pots that are so old and discoloured, an old blender that hasnt worked for ages and some attachments from an even older blender. So 9 items so far and I have a lovely tidy cupboard now.:T

    Also working on 'decluttering' the fridge! ;)
    mortgage £800 overpayment 2022. £600/£2400 2023 🙂 savings £1853/£1800 😊

    Hi

    I'd like to join please. I'm a crafter so have all the associated paraphernalia and need to make the effort this year to tidy up. I also think it's time for me to choose to concentrate on only one or two hobbies rather than the many I currently dabble in. 3 items a day sounds achievable as I struggle with letting go of stuff on a big scale.
