It has been quite some time since I decluttered due to a busy summer. However, this past week, we got rid of 42 more items. First, I got ride of 29 diapers and diaper covers and a baby bouncy seat by selling them on Craigslist. I made $55 as I documented in my weekly Saved [...]

This week I decluttered 34 items, most of them my kids’ outgrown clothes to go to the garage sale pile and books about giving birth and being pregnant. I have now purged my home of 1,322 items. What I am most excited about, though, is that I have shut down my eBay store and am [...]

The Cost of Clutter Financially and Emotionally

As my readers here know, I have been on a mission to declutter for the last 20+ weeks. Doing so has revealed quite a bit to me. We are no where close to done, but I am able to see the difference it has made in our lives so far. I am over at Free [...]

Decluttering Challenge, Week 23

June 23, 2011

My husband brought up a tub of clothes from the basement marked 2 to 4T. I had packed these away after our son outgrew them thinking that a girl could wear them. Now that we have two little girls, I don’t know what I was thinking! One of the outfits was a light blue and dark blue [...]

Declutter Challenge, Week 20

March 31, 2011

Seriously, this is getting embarrassing! This week I rid our apartment of another 89 items, bringing our grand total to 1,105 items. I am quite sure we will reach 2,000 to 3,000 items before our house is fully decluttered. Yikes! This week, some items were more from my eBay business that will not sell. The [...]

Declutter Challenge, Week 19

March 24, 2011

Doing my eBay inventory helped me weed out a lot of clothes that I bought when my business was new in 2006 and 2007. Basically, I was inexperienced and thought any piece of clothing with “Gap” or “Gymboree” on the tag could be sold on eBay. Boy was I wrong. I got rid of 93 [...]

My cousin’s house was routinely as messy as mine. She has two kids about the same age as my oldest. In her home, toys were strewn about every room of the house. When she and her husband bought a much smaller fixer upper to move into, my husband and I were skeptical. After all, where [...]

I didn’t get as much accomplished decluttering this week as I would have liked, but I did manage to list 22 of my children’s outgrown clothes on eBay. Typically spring and summer clothes start selling in February and March, so I wanted to make sure to have them up before the big selling season. I [...]
