Weekend uncluttering

How goes the uncluttering this weekend?

I've been using up fabric scraps to repair cheap 'reusable' shopping bags -- horrid plasticky fabric that shreds surprisingly easily (extruded in some way, rather than woven, so a tear just shreds across if not spotted). At the rate I'm going, I might have to start repairing other peoples, but it will be a great way to get rid of scraps!

What a great way to both use the scraps and keep the bags usable! They're probably more interesting to look at, too.

Yesterday I went through a box that contained things I had bought as gifts, either with no recipient in mind, or far in advance of the gift-giving occasion. I had also stored other random small items there over the years, and due to the out-of-sight, out-of-mind problem, most were no longer relevant for gift-giving, or useful. So I have about 10 items ready for the thrift store, and others now stored in better (I hope) locations.

Well done on the sorting through the gifting items! I kinda resemble that problem, so you have reminded me that I have to do the same thing (and I can do the gifting aspect by releasing them into the Buy Nothing group!)
