Decluttered all day! I had 3 large bins of Christmas wrapping paper, bags, bows, etc. Before I put them back up in the attic with the Christmas stuff, I wanted to declutter them down to 2 smaller bins. I did that this morning - yeah! I will donate the extras that were in good condition to Goodwill tomorrow.
Then I continued in the afternoon to sort and declutter all the Mrs. Grossman's decorative stickers I have. I go to the warehouse sales they have and buy lots of stickers that I use throughout the year to make cards and papercrafts. Well....I have accumulated way too many bins of stickers. My church Youth director has asked for donations for craft projects, so I talked to her and asked if she wanted Valentine's and spring holidays stickers. She said she would take any I wanted to give her, which was a great motivator to sort and donate lots of stickers. I finally finished tonight sorting all the stickers into categories. Yikes - I'm a sticker hoarder - kind of scary how many stickers I have! I took all the hearts and Valentine and St. Pat's and Easter and Spring stickers and divided them by 50%. I am keeping half and donating the other half to church tomorrow. Wow - that's out of the house. Now I need to find homes for 50% of all the other sticker groups. Maybe the local elementary school or YMCA after-school group. Big project that is spread all over my living room. I'll have to clean it up tomorrow and finish donation bins.
A big pat on my back for decluttering all day - I'm tired!
