Picked up a couple lamps from IKEA. I'm finally startin' to slowly declutter this office. Picked up a Logitech VX Nano mouse as well.

I bought this Sept 16, 1996. I am selling it on ebay.. to declutter.. I have owned this for a crazy long time.. as weird as crystal pepsi

This is a very thrifty/upcycled bag. The only new material used was some thread. The hedgehog was from a pattern that I found in a thrift store magazine. The doily it is stitched on was given to me by a friend, who got it from the thrift store they volunteer at. The buttons were from another friend. The yellow and red fabric was from a friend of a friend, who was moving and had to declutter their craft supplies. I'm very proud of how it turned out.

Total throwaway photo -- I didn't use the tripod, didn't adjust lighting, didn't declutter or move tables, etc -- but what say you about including this type of shot in the MLS?

 

1) Yes, it shows those big-ass windows and makes the house seem roomy!

 

2) No, OMFG it looks like serial killers will murder you while you watch TV, plus scary red well, plus NO.

The new location for the table which serves as a desk and a dining table. It has leaves that pull out to make it twice the size. Also the bookcase I need to declutter and replace.

ADD & paper clutter seem to go hand in hand and I've been buried under it for a long time. Every time we sit down to eat at the dinner table, we have to push some papers off to one side, or take one pile and put it on top of another pile, or move a pile (or two) from the table to some other place that it will clutter up. No, I'm not proud of this. I hate it. It is very stressful. But every time I try to put some sort of organization in place, it seems to fail. I got cube organizers with fabric bins and that helped A LOT because a lot of the stuff that built up "To File" could just get slipped into a cubbie. It wasn't perfect, but it was a major improvement. The problem is that we just have so much paper coming into the house that really needed to be organized in some logical & safe way (like financial stuff) or the boy's schoolwork (I want to keep samples to document his progress) or artwork that I really want to keep.

 

I spent a LONG time going through piles today. Lots of scanning. Lots of throwing out. Lots of shredding. I'm not done. Once I've tackled all the visible paper clutter there are those fabric bins and desk drawers and file folders. But damn, it's almost like I can breath again. And that feels really good.

I'll print up a list later when I add the carts. See anything you like? email an offer to declutter@jenncutter.com The games are NTSC except for a couple of Japanese imports.

Revisiting one of the locations I scouted last night. One of the oddities of so regularly shooting in this style is that a lot of the clothes and such that are in the shots actually don't show up. The coat that Victoria is wearing in this is, frankly, awesome. Still, gotta love the end result.

 

Strobist: a 430 in 1/2" grid @ 1/8th camera right, near, about 5 feet away. A second 430 @ 1/16th, bare on the ground camera right, far, to provide some depth and ground texture. Triggered via a 580 set to nul.

Although two things (well, three if we're being picky) on it are mine. Guess which?

vintage porcelain teacup. . .purging some vintage goodies in a new etsy shop called wolfiedigs. It's not a new venture or direction, just a way to declutter the house a bit (I hope!)

The desk after my declutter session today.

www.organizingbuddy.com - these are my shoes in shoe-boxes. i made a picture of the shoe, then printed the pics out, cut, and labeled them. easy, fast, cheap, and it fits into any angle.

 

i actually created a template for this, so the pictures of the shoes just easily can be inserted into it. if someone would like to have the template, i would happily email it. just drop me an email on info@organizingbuddy.com

I bought 4 Panama embroideries 20 years ago, put them in standard oak frames (which I'm going to spray black), and hung them with fishing line which disappears to the eye. A friend customized hooks so I can slip them under the acoustic ceiling tiles and move artwork around. (He bent British art hooks formerly shaped like an S for wood picture moldings in old British houses. Thanks, Idaho.)

wish i'd unplugged the dehumidifier n moved the soap to declutter a bit… but it's real life :)

Raisin bread, Nutella, and banana....yummy!

I did a little work on my 365 Declutter Challenge. I have some items in the donation box, and I organized a spot for the K-cups in the pantry.

Amazed at the amount of clutter that gathers from year to year.

While trying to declutter my apartment this summer, I discovered a bunch of videotapes stored in some drawers in my living room. Wow, I've watched a lot of TV over the years, but going through these so far has only confirmed for me that I have pretty good taste and still love everything now that I loved back then.

 

I got "Fields of Gold" in my head for this illustration after a weekend full of watching and listening to my immense stash of Sting performances. Tyrone blends into this warm scenery perfectly, but he will neither confirm nor deny whether it's really Sting's backyard.

I am in Niagara and have been for a bit. I've been tending to my mom's home during the first four days here (redecorating the dining and living rooms, patching up and helping to declutter.) The work I promised to tackle is done and now we are set to unwind, visit, and take the boys around to places we knew when we were kids. I took my sons to Fort George National Historic Park in NotL yesterday as a start on my search to meet the challenge posed to me during my Get Pushed assignment. Fort George is significant as a point of conflict in the War of 1812, know as the Napoleonic Wars in the rest of the world, wherein the US failed in its one and only attempt to to put its doctrine of "manifest destiny" into practice into effect over British North America.

Why do books always look so untidy? I feel a declutter coming on.

These are excellent bookshelves or atleast I have been using them for that purpose, to carry all my files and folders. This is a heavy duty rack, again, ofcourse from Ikea.

Definitely needs to be de-cluttered

Today I found various bits and pieces in a box in the garage that my sister had donated for a charity event. These were some of the leftovers. Plus I’d had a sort out in the spare bedroom wardrobe, which is where the animal books, coat hangers and shoeboxes came from.

 

Clockwise from bottom left:

 

Farmyard jigsaw puzzle. I bought this to go in a shoebox gift, but it is too large to go in as well as all the other bits I want to put in. I am donating this to another freecycler who will put it in her church Christmas fair.

 

Various educational books for GCSE and AS level. I have no use for these so they will also go to the church fair.

 

A bag of coat hangers, the plastic and metal hook type you get given when you buy an item in a shop. We have hundreds of coat hangers so can afford to lose these. I put them on Freecycle, but there were no takers. I ended up giving them to a lady who takes clothes to a homeless shelter – they hang all the clothes up so these should come in useful.

 

Shoeboxes: I am doing shoebox gifts for Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child, and was given these to fill. I had already got my quota of shoeboxes and won’t have enough to fill these as well. I offered these on Freecycle too and they were taken within the hour!

 

Various video tapes, given to me by my sister for the charity. As they have hundreds already and these didn’t sell, I’ve offered them on Freecycle. These were taken by the same lady who wanted the shoeboxes. She will be taking them to her church Christmas fair.

 

Another china teapot from when I collected them. This was taken by a freecycler.

 

An earring holder. In with the stuff my sister gave us that didn’t sell. Off to the church Christmas fair too.

 

A pill box with the days of the week on it. I had this when I needed to take iron tablets earlier in the summer. I no longer need to use it now, so I’m donating it to my mum, who needs a new one.

 

SIM card for mobile. Given in with stuff from my sister. I don’t need it and won’t use it, so it will go along to the church fair too.

 

Eye mask for sleeping on a plane. Again in with stuff from sister, and going to church fair.

 

Two animal books. I bought these from a charity shop sometime and was going to alter them and make them into mini scrapbooks, but I don’t think I’ll ever get around to it. These went to the church fair too.

 

Another hodge-podge of bits and pieces today, but they all go towards the grand total of 100 items that will be gone from my house by next weekend!

 

Was going through a bunch of old stuff I had collected over the years to declutter, and I just couldn't throw this away without at least taking a picture of it.
