post #141 of 1617

I have already set aside so many items I  am not going to list them each individually. :)

1 box of baby feeding items never used -bottles, manual breast pump and such- 17.  First trying to sell on craigslist.  Will donate to local food pantry if no interest.

cleaned out a linen closet and paired down on miscellaneous linens- 4 donating

cleaned out closet that has become a dumping zone- 43, donating, threw a couple of things away, recycling old cell phones, and selling a nice land line phone set we don't use

13 glasses collecting dust (margarita and wine glasses..we don't even drink!), Donating to Goodwill.

 

77/2011

 

Now the key is to actually box and bag all the donations and get them out of here.  I had bags of clothes sitting around for months that I finally brought to a Goodwill a month ago...Also, if items don't sell I am going to donate them...even if they have decent value.  They aren't making money just sitting here and I need them out!

here's what I did the last 2 days:

 

-went through entire folder of 2010 receipts and bills and threw out all unrelated crap that made it's way in
 (counting this as 1 item)

-donated 20 pairs of jeans and I didn't even bother to count how many other clothes of mine and DH's, 2 huge garbage bags full (will count as 50)

-went through recipe books and donated 1

-went through misc junk pile and got rid of about 5 items

 

I'm just going to say I'm at 70 so far this year and will try to keep better track as I see so many of you have it ALL written down lol!

Another 20 items for me - various things: bottles, old pump parts, "artwork", a pair of old sneakers, a few glass jars, broken crayons, and more! I just keep a count in my head as I go through the day. I don't count every little thing and I don't really care about listing everything wink1.gif

I also managed to locate all but 2 pieces (extra) to all 4 of my pumps, organized, made a list and bagged into 4 separate bags so they don't get thrown or mixed up all over again. I haven't counted this in my total yet, but I will once their out of the house. I really think 2011 things is going to be easy. smile.gif

All to donate box:

1 cookie cutter

1 pastry cutter

1 cookbook

1 business card holder

1 boppy

 

And, I went through a HUGE pile of leftover material from making diapers and cut them into useable pieces for my quilt- I say that counts as 1 decluttering point! Also, I made two diapers tonight out of two old t-shirts and an old ripped sheet so +1!

Wow, this is easier to do than I thought! We are hoping to move within the next two months so that will really help my count. I can just imagine as I go through my kitchen cupboards and my storage closets, "I don't want to pack that so I'm donating/ tossing it! Plus, it'll count towards my goal on MDC!"
