My room wasn't too small, It was just full of stuff I hardly ever use!Other websites have given me the boost I need to tackle this problem once and for all.
Usually this means I tidy.
My version of tidying up is completely different to normal peoples views of tidying up. I just throw everything into corners and hide the pile with stuff (like blankets or furniture.)
This blog will track my progress at decluttering my room. I have set myself some rules to get past the fact I still actually have things from 10+years ago in here:
- If I havn't used it in the last month, I clearly do not need it.
- If I "forgot it was there" and was never looking for it anyway, Its gone.
- Items will go into a 'Holding Cell' at the end of each week that box is sorted into 'Throw', 'Donate' and 'Sell'. If I use an item in that box before the weekend it escapes that weeks trip to Ebay/the dump/the charity shop.
- If I decide I am going to sell an item it has to be listed up immediately (otherwise I will never get around to it.)
- Items can be sold on here, on forums (car spares etc), Ebay or even boot sales.
(That will be hilarious, I can't haggle well, I am terrible with maths and money and I drive a classic Mini so the actual boot is only as big as a very small suitcase). - If the money raised goes towards the Classic car's upkeep (spares etc), I have to fit that spare part the same week it arrives to stop me from being swamped by spares again.
Now that formalities are out of the way I will get onto another post specifically for showing my room at its worst!!!
Thanks for reading! =)
