Not much decluttering going on here.......... we're still decorating . I'm hoping to have it all finished on Monday now, it's been a hard slog this week. Only recycled an empty sugar soap bottle :eek:. Will try harder next week !

I'm back on it today. Bag for the chaz in the car this morning, will go tomorrow or today if I have to go out. A sweater, a pair of leggings, some memory cards, a lunchbox, an umbrella, 2 unopened packs of stick on nails, and a few other bits. A box of food I can't eat (allergies) which I've been given, passed that to a departing guest. 2 half used pots of bath stuff into one. Another pair of shoes on eBay gone. About 4 cardboard boxes flattened and in the recycling bin. An old pair of rubber gloves used in the garden then binned. 25 books off my shelf given to a son in law who will donate them when he's read them.


I've got to go through my spare room wardrobe and get rid of a lot more clothes. Sadly I'll never be that size again and if I am they'll be too dated. The ones I want to keep I've put in a vacuum bag to save space.

Decorating still here too

A few items sorted for decluttering though -

Wesco kitchen bin - no longer needed since we have 2 x 2 pullout bins for rubbish/recycling etc in the newly finished kitchen. It's a bit rusty, so going to the tip

Ancient camping stove - tip

Deep fat fryer - tip

10 x DVDs - charity shop

Hopefully will make more progress this week.......
