Opened a drawer and look what I found!
These have been kicking around since the days of Liquidation World downtown – and I can’t remember the last time they were used.
Eight packages of incense and two candles.
I feel a little bit like I cheated since I could have called them a set of incense but I’m tired from a busy weekend with the wee one so it’s going to have to do.
Happy Friday!
Sweater, pillow, ornament, calculator and a book.
Little steps toward a leap into a decluttered home.
Today I decided to let go of one of my favorite purses.
I had grand plans to try decopaging over the peeling parts but I did a little reality check and decided it was highly unlikely to happen – so I’m tossing it.
For giveaway – a book, a friendship bracelet maker and half a dozen glasses.
This weekend I’m going to load up the items from the last couple of days plus a couple boxes I’d filled over the last few months and drop them off at the thrift store.
The house will be a little lighter already. 😊
Let go of 2 things today…easy!!
A corner punch I picked up at Value Village that doesn’t work. It’s a struggle to toss it but why should I send it back for someone else to waste their money? Garbage it is.
The little clay flower petalish dish I made in pottery club a few years ago. I never really liked it but figured since I made it I should keep it. It’s just been clutter so I can let it go.
When this starts to get difficult I’ll probably start letting go of books – I have a lot of them and it would be good to pare down.
Tomorrow I’ll share another corner of clutter I would like to clean up – hopefully as I start making more space I’ll be able to organize the things I want to keep and use.
This is just one small area I want to declutter.
For years I have “jokingly” called myself a hoarder. I am a firm believer that our thoughts create our realities and the house is getting more and more cluttered every year.
I was listening to ‘The Minimalists’ podcast a few weeks ago and they mentioned a 30 day minimalist challenge. I’m not ready to become a minimalist (yet?) but I am more than ready to learn to let go of some of my stuff.
Over on Muckenaround.com I am doing a 100 Day Joyful creativity challenge and the accountability of posting daily has really helped me stick to creating a little something every day so I thought a challenge would be helpful to create a little space.
At the end of the 30 days I will be 465 items lighter in my home. That’s a lot of stuff!!
