April 2026 Decluttering Club

[Lana]

Was surprised that April wasn't started!

My sister stopped by and she took some stamps, a picture of our great aunt, and then a wedding picture of our great grandparents, and another one of them.

One unworn Winter coat, a picture frame and a necklace into the donation box.

DS is decluttering all sorts of electronic crap and it will go to recycling place. He "thought" he would bits and bobs and parts and such and tinker ... that hasn't happened and the stuff is now old and outdated. Glad to get those boxes (yes, boxes) gone through and they will go out the door!

A shirt, a book of flower pictures, a portfolio

DS is decluttering all sorts of electronic crap and it will go to recycling place.

This is on my to do list for some stage. DH has 3 boxes worth of cables and bits and pieces taking up room in my spare room cupboard. I have mentioned it once but need to be a bit more forceful so that it will get done.

12 cassettes
18 children books
1 pair shoes
1 children ski pants (given to sis for her granddaughter)

We are using stuff up from our freezer.

 

[AnnieClaus]

Went through the last couple of weeks of newspapers.
They are in recycling bin now.

Latest Taste of Home came in. Went through it and it is also in recycling.

 

[halimer]

About 7 cookbooks

 

[missjane]

3 pair of rubber boots
3 pair of tennis shoes

 

[Lana]

If they were a cute rubber boot with prints or even if plain---could make them into a flower planter

We are using stuff up from our freezer.

We did this for a few months before moving here. It was amazing what we had in there. We had some interesting meals.

 

[halimer]

I bought myself a new cookware set. Some of the older one was tossed into recycling and the others were put into bags for VV pickup.

 

[Ahorsesoul]

Dh came out with 7 to 8 (he says) short sleeve shirts that he put into our to go box.

 

[missjane]

Major pantry cleanout...two garbage bags gone. DH and DD both will leave a handful of food in a food package (cereal, chips) and never eat the remainder. Must be hereditary. All thrown out!
