Weekend decluttering

[rmc28]

I am continuing the project of moving my younger son into his own room, formerly our spare room.  He and his clothes are installed, but there is no room yet for any of his other belongings like books or toys.  Today I excavated around and under the bed and found many things! Some have gone in the bin, some have gone in the laundry, some have gone onto a shelf to sort out later.

More about my Surprise Tip Run and plans for reshelving in the comments. How is your weekend decluttering going?

Re: Reshelving plans

So, the run of six is basically "things I would like to read *once* more" so I have moved them into my room to the to-read pile there. I found a few other books that I don't really want, but in a way it's really nice to look at the shelves of books and go "these are all really great books and I am glad we have them".

I have not yet done much moving around of books or toys, but I have emptied some more space in the room: I binned a box of things I put away a few years ago because I wasn't sure what to do with them - in the intervening time it seems my brain has settled on "recycling is good enough" - and I took a set of cot-related things to the charity shop, which had been sitting around waiting for me to decide where/how to sell them.

And I have now found http://www.usednappies.co.uk/ for selling my used cloth nappies, so I "just" need to make the time to photograph / list the dratted things, but that will be LOTS of space reclaimed if I can get them gone.

I think the theme of the weekend has been "just make a decision".
