After working on the kitchen cupboards, I decided to do some easy rooms. The guest room usually doesn't have a lot extra things in it. I did go through my sewing basket and craft supplies. I haven't done the scrapbooking supplies yet, but my daughter wanted to do that. It is really nice to know that I can clean this room in less than 10 minutes dusting and vacuuming. I pared down my wrapping supplies. There weren't too many to start with, but I am starting to give gift cards which are easier to send and I don't have to deal with all the wrapping paper that way. I went to the guest bathroom next, and went through every drawer and cupboard. There was nothing to get rid of. It was all exactly how I wanted it. Cleaning the bathroom will also be a breeze and won't take much time.
Today I am going to clean out the outside of the kitchen cabinets and wipe down the kitchen table and chairs and counters. I am going to clean the floor and the glass door. All the cupboards are clean inside and there isn't anything outdated or anything that I don't need or use. It is a good feeling!
Join me in the challenge any time you would like to join in. You only have to get rid of 25 things a day! If that is too much for you, then change it to what works for you. I knew if I did 25 things a day, that it would force me to get rid of some of the things I like but don't use.
The lists of what I get rid of each day can be found at

This is what I plan on doing once the kids start back to school. With a two year old it is nearly impossible to clean anything. I usually like to take everything out and put it back how I want it. Then what is left over needs to find a new home either trash or donate.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea to take eveything out! It has been a busy month for us. Maybe in the future I will try doing it that way instead of just finding 25 items per day.
