January Declutter Club

[sweetpumkinpye]

I have been really good with the decluttering. Never thought of de cluttering recipes, but that is something that needs doing at some stage, I will add it to the list. Have just gone through all the DVDs and removed some, at some stage would like to go through the CDs. Need to go through the linen cupboard too. Every where I look I see the potential to de clutter.

I'm getting back into declutter mode...I've started a pile of clothes to give away, and will be going through my recipes. I've had many of the for years, have no idea what's in there so if I haven't made it yet out it goes!

Need to load another 3 bags into the car. The charity bin at the shopping center is full so I will take it to work with me tomorrow and drop it in the bin there.

Feels good to get them out the door.
DH cleaned through his catch all drawer and got rid of a bag of trash.

I've been working as I can on organizing/de-cluttering the apartment. We're still waiting for our house to be finished and have a lot of stuff in storage units and a lot of stuff sitting on shelves in our spare room waiting for the move home.

BUT I did go through both closets this weekend and get everything cleared out, organized and tidied up. Got all of DS's toys organized - which lasted 5 minutes LOL - and plan to work on bathroom closet and storage in one of our standing dressers next.

I coupon and have a fairly decent stockpile of extra toiletries, over the counter meds and cleaning products, etc. Need to go through and make sure like is with like so I know how much I have.

I threw out a decent bag of trash and have a large bag ready to go to Goodwill when the weather clears.

I decluttered my closet this weekend. I'm trying to decide if I want to take the things I cleaned out to Goodwill or save them for a garage sale.
I think I'll work on my recipe box this week.

I did the same thing the other night...would like to get rid of the big 3" binder...need to look for something smaller

I have way too many recipes as well.

I love ripping them out of magazines but then rarely make them!

Annie, I am the same, I have to folders full of tear outs, but always seem to cook the same things over and over. I either need to jazz things up a bit, or get rid of the folders

I put ripped out recipes right next to me on the kitchen table. If I haven't made attempt to make the recipe in a few days I toss it. Sometimes if I really do think it might be a good recipe I'll find it on the internet and pin it. But the paper copy goes out to the trash. It's not like I'm not going to find more recipes. lol
