730/365 Decluttering Challenge

It's already been a month since Amy over at The Finer Things in Life set up a decluttering challenge.  My goal is to do 2 items a day so that by the end of the year I will have gotten rid of 730 items.  So far I've said goodbye to 44 pieces of STUFF.  I know, I know...it should be 64 items by now...but, I'm getting there.  One thing I've discovered is that it's easier to help someone else get rid of their things than it is to get rid of your own.  Lots of sentimental value in our things...

I've been doing some organizing as I've been going along. I'll put up some pictures in another post.

Getting rid of the CLUTTER



Amy at The Finer Things In Life also has decluttering as one of her goals for the year. She's planning to get rid of 730 items over a year long period. Getting rid of stuff is one of my goals for this year. While I don't know if I have 730 things to get rid of I know that I do have a lot of stuff that needs to go. I do like her idea of keeping track...so I've decided to keep an unofficial tally of what is going out of our home. Today a bag of 12 items and 1 item for consignment left the house...never to return. Hmmm, I wonder if there's a counter of some sort I could use to keep track of the numbers?
