Spare room clean out...

Do you have a spare room that magnetically attracts all the 'stuff' you don't have a place for? We do!
I got in there this morning and just methodically put stuff away or tossed it in the bin. I advertised some things on our local Facebook Buy/Swap/Sell site and got rid of them straight away. It didn't take long as I advertised them as FREE! Goodbye 5 cushions, a carpet rug and a timber corner display cabinet from our family room that we want to replace with a low-line TV unit.  Gone!
Yesterday, I cleaned out under our ensuite vanity and the main bathroom vanities too. Toss, into the bin! I purged my make-up drawer, tossing old eye shadows, powder puffs, hand creams, lip glosses etc. Binned it! It felt so good!
Anyone else spring cleaning in summer?

Cheers - Joolz xx

  1. Oh, if only mine looked as good as your before photo!

    For some reason the wine bottle lying beside the blood pressure cuff gave me a laugh. :) Wait! Maybe I should start with some wine to lower my clutter-busting inhibitions!

    1. There are boxes of wine under the bed to the left and boxes of mine full of holiday treasures under the other one! I just couldn't put up with it any longer!

  2. Your spare room looks great:) I'm doing some "late" Spring cleaning - just a drawer or two at a time. I must look into joining our local Buy/Swap/Sell group, I keep meaning to and then forget!

    1. That's how I got started - sometimes just a drawer at a time. I'm nearly done now, for a while any way.

  3. The room looks great, Joolz. How is that blogging App going? I got as far as downloading it but am waiting to see how you go with it as you seemed to be having problems.

    1. I'm a bit baffled by it, Chel. I have been posting with one or two pics and it works fine, but I did a big post the other day with lots of lovely photos of my garden and it just kept coming up with an error message. Grrr!
      Also, I notice that the picture doesn't show on anyones blog roll so it must be something to do with the pictures. Very annoying and I've sent off several emails to Blogo help centre with no replys so that doesn't give me confidence to actually pay for the app. I'm only using the free app at the moment. Have a play and see what you think! - J

  4. I have noticed a few times when you have written a new post that no photos appear in my feed thingy. I need to get going with it before we head to the beach later in the year and I will need to blog on my iPad. By the way how do you get that background colour when you comment. I have noticed that on Phil's blog too.
