When Summer began this year I vowed I would set aside some serious time to work on decluttering some areas of my home. You've never see these places~ They are the ones bulging from closet wall to closet wall and shed wall to shed wall with more things than you can imagine! I have purposefully kept them hidden away from you because I wouldn't want you to stop thinking I have a perfect life or anything....
(BIG SMILE HERE!)
I hate clutter. Except for my daughter, Adrienne, I do believe I despise piled-up-unpleasantness and disorganization more than anyone else in our family. So when stacks of once treasured things grow tall, wide and spin wildly out of control, it's time to clear out!
I spent nearly every day last week taking pictures of my Miss K's outgrown clothes and listing them on eBay. I've sold a big chunk of them (especially the higher-end dresses) and this week I'm listing even more stuff.
It's just stuff! Lots of stuff! And it all must GO!
Tennis Rackets used once or twice...
Angel Figurines
(from my early days of, um...collecting!)
Wood mounted Rubber Stamps
Scrapbooking Paraphernalia
Fabric
Lace
Trim
Old Patterns
Buttons
and more
and more
and more...
So...I'm going to be popping in and out this week as I try and get on top of the over-stuffing in my home. Last week I sold over $500 worth of decent junque and I'm nowhere near close to what has to go! My goal is to sell off, haul away and clear out anything that is keeping me from safely storing our two cars in our garage.
Feels good great to let some of the stuff go! Honestly it's helping me to breathe!!!!
Air is good!
More soon later this week! I'm finishing up a darling cottage style chest in pink...don't faint...it's got hand painted pink roses!
Have a wonderful Monday!
Love to you...
