CLUTTER

I have a confession to make - I am a hoarder, and so is my husband

Now all our children are travelling down the same lane

I keep things that no longer fit me  - just in case

and I also have things in the attic that I have not touched for at least 10 years or so.....

This year I am aiming to reduce the clutter

I have put it off for so long, as it can be quite overwhelming!!!

I have decided to take it slow and easy, so as not to become too overwhelmed and give up

By tackling 1 drawer, box or cupboard per day it should take quite a while, but at least it will get done

Here is an image of our ugly hallway/front entrance that was previously filled with bikes, sporting equipment, shoes etc... etc...

 

 

NOT a welcoming sight I must say

First I threw away some of the mess

ie.. old tennis balls, shoes that no longer fit the boys and some broken sports equipment

Next I purchased a storage shed for the backyard to put all the other bits into

ie.. sporting equipment, bikes, tools etc...

I have also removed the old door and repainted the walls,

but more on that later
