So I'm a bit redundant, I can't help it. I WANT to declutter but I couldn't bear to give up anything.
So today I got serious. Really serious. I started taking things out of the house with the idea of moving things back in, maybe in a new spot, maybe where they were. And anything left outside would be sold or stored down in the barn.
When I started pulling things out I had a real eye-opener about how much stuff I have.
Take a look. The two pictures below are of the things I dragged out from the bedroom.
I can say without a doubt that five doors are sooooo not going back in.
Now we move to the livingroom.
Decisions will need to be made here. There's a church pew hidden behind stuff on the left that I would like to move inside. I'll have to walk around with a measuring tape.
Now the dining room.
It doesn't look like a lot but it was a mess. The door wasn't in a happy place. I love the door and it's staying but I'll have to drag it from room to room to find a spot.
I'll have to do a Part Two where I show what didn't get back into the house.
And right now I need to get out there and start dragging because it looks like rain. Figures!

I'll send a truck right away. You don't need all that good stuff (I do).

Send the truck to Shady Cove in a few weeks! Tie Days is coming!
DeleteInvite us to your sale!!
ReplyDeleteOkay! I'll be selling the excess at the Tie Days celebration in Shady Cove. August 23-24. See you there.
DeleteThat's a lot of doors! I'm still decluttering here so I can't even look at what you have left over. If I look, I want.
ReplyDeleteI am laughing that you had 5 doors in your bedroom? Rest assured, I am not pointing fingers, since that is the kind of thing that I would do. In fact, in my computer room, where I sit, is a rolled rug, a chair resting on it, numerous boxes and all kinds of smalls. The cats appreciate the maze I have for them in every room.
ReplyDeleteWhat is pathetic is the fact that I would SO go to your sale, if you weren't on the west coast. Hah, hah. Don't you just love when people write about stripping their homes to just the basics?
I love the patina on the doors and frames! It looks like you have your work cut out for you. Enjoy the journey!
