I know that we are well into Lent, but this year as well as giving up sweeties and rubbish food, I also set up a bag which every day I add one item to . An Item that I no longer want or need. This way, just after Easter I will be donating 40 items to a local charity shop.
Its amazing what I have found to get rid of and it also is amazing what I have found and put up for sale.
I actually feel that I am making space.
Yes, yes, yes I know that I still pick up things in the charity shop, but I am more selective now.
My collection of china, linen and my glasses are the things that I cannot whittle down at all and so for the time being I am keeping them. They are the the 'pretty' things which I love and use everyday. I always think its lovely to set the table.
I now feel that the 40 day clear out for Lent will become a habit, as for the selling, well it is going towards funding my further adventures abroad. so its all a win/win.
Heres to less clutter and more travelling.
