2020 - banish the clutter

lindens

Another 15 mins of decluttering done yesterday evening - a craft stash under the kitchen table :embarassed: :eek:

It was divided into an ebay pile, a CS pile and a keep pile. It never made its way upstairs to the craft room though :rotfl:

6 more things listed on ebay

Day 7 - 1 of DDs toys that is indescribable (I have literally no ideas) and 2 hard back books to the charity bag. Charity bag is ready by the front door to be dropped off as I drive past following school run.

Crikey! This thread moves fast!

Mrs SD, the bed itself could be sold to help fund the purchase. I think I have a few other things in the spare room, not just under the bed, that might help pay for the chair/bed. I'd very much like not to spend any " real" money in it as I'm supposed to have started a no buy Year

Anyhow, we shall see. Have decluttered quite a bit of recycling ready for the collection this week. Most of the Christmas " stuff" is now sorted or decluttered ( including food). I have a very lovely footstool in the lounge which I know to be packed with fabric ready for "projects". So I'm going to sort that and be ruthless. Any fabric remaining must be used by the autumn or it has to go.

Well done to all, I had to go back 4 pages to catch up on Mrs SDs question!

Good luck Mrs SD on your quest, and many thanks for constant cheerleading

Can I join please? I’ve gone through the boxes in my landing and the kitchen noticeboard. I’d like to get rid of 100 bags of stuff! 1 bag done! X

It's now in the bin.

Heating fixed, new pump needed, so that decluttered £190:eek: but it was nice to be warm last night:D

And now a radiator has sprung a leak:(:o:mad:

Any of you planning to move, keep visiting the house you want, you might spot such problems and point them out to current owner, let them fix it or try and get more money knocked off, after all it's been an expensive 3 month's since we moved in.

I think I missed the boat on this thread, and I'm trying to keep off the forums (it's a kind of mental de-cluttering)but you you might find the following info useful, Hope I'm not repeating previous posts:
Currys will take anything electrical for WEEE recycling - not just stuff bought from Currys. Over the holiday I successfully recycled a couple of dead Li-On batteries and a bag full of surplus kettle leads
