Well I have a lovely friend who is helping me to declutter. We don't try to do a whole room (which why it always went wrong before!) we just do part of a room. Last week we did one small cupboard and 3 drawers in the dining room.
Yesterday we did part of a bookshelf and a couple of surfaces. Let me show you the before!
This is what people can see in the background of zoom calls!
And now the after.
There's still a lot to do but at least it's much more pleasurable to walk into the room.
How are you getting on with tidying and decluttering?
Thanks for joining me today.

I like decluttering, but like you I hate the moment when it all looks worse than before! Always worth persisting though!
ReplyDeleteI like the advice to do little and often. Every Monday I go through my In Tray and write a list of priorities. Two years ago I moved house downsizing and cleared out a lot of my filing cabinet as I am a paper hoarder! I have not missed anything I discarded. But maybe need to start on it again as some files are bulging.
ReplyDeleteOh, you got a "bee in your bonnet"!
ReplyDeleteGood job.
My problem is... I stsrted everywhere so it is ALL a mess now. I NEED more energy :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I’ve also learnt that small steps and areas make a difference. It’s rewarding to see what you have achieved rather than as to the overwhelm
