De-cluttering, still at it, still no end

I have tried and took three bags of clothes to a charity shop, I should never need to buy any more. I have about 20 handbags, none of them big enough to get all my stuff in, so virtually unused, why did I get them.
It's what to do with my Ercol furniture, it's in mint condition and I love it. I won't be taking it though. Also boxes of ornaments , not to my taste, Lladro etc. And copper, kettles etc all presents. Too good to just throw but I couldn't sell on line as get in a muddle buying on line.
Going to get ruthless now with my cooking utensils and gadgets

DH and I were busy in the garage yesterday.

He was going through his metal filing cabinets which hold a multitude of tools, gadgets, bits and bobs. He has sorted some things out for our next car boot sale, and says that stuff that doesn’t sell will go for scrap.

I recycled many empty bottles and jars which I have been hanging onto, but never use, leaving space (it’s an old upright freezer) for more useful items. Some of the jars I swapped with really old tatty ones which hold nails, screws etc. Look smarter, though I doubt the contents will ever be used, he has so many.

Same here - I began like a hare, then my inner tortoise took over! Once the roofers have finished, I’ll get back into the loft and start getting stuff down and away. Little and often suits me.

Karmalady, thank you for running this thread. I rarely post on it but it has been an inspiration and I’m gradually clearing the decks. Haven’t done much recently, painful joints, medical appointments and looking after granddaughter, but must get back to it.

Reducing items before we moved I dealt with so many recipe books by taking out and the recipes I use or knew I would use and disposing of the rest of the book. Although it felt oh so wrong and was hard to do I was left with easily sorted, organised small files. I’ve not bought a recipe book since, in search of anything new I use the internet and either cook from the iPad screen or print a single page for my files. The recipes from 56 years ago handwritten by my Mum, ma-in-law and an aunt have also been carefully filed. I can’t recall the last time I used any of them other than one cake but they are too precious to loose.

My plants needed a de-clutter, I kept all the good plants and I now have one normal plant plus sansevierias, many varieties and collected over the years. All now re-potted and checked over, cleaned etc. My pots are all lechuza planters, they look very nice and substrate is lechuza pon

Part of my spring cleaning. I took several planters to re-cycling and moved a kitchen table. Suddenly feng shui came into play and ambience is good, nice and fresh for summer.

I will be de-cluttering again in the garage as soon as I can

I have lots of knitting books, rowan etc. I may do the evil deed of tearing out the patterns I might use. They can then be filed and I will get more bookshelf space
