We’re at day 15 of my 21 day declutter challenge.
Going through a bunch of drawers today, I came across a lot of those little things, the ones that seemed like a good idea to hold on to, for one reason or another… but who has turned out to just be space fillers instead.
So why not let my drawers breathe a little!
As it’s my birthday today, I decided to make my decluttering a bit more challenging, Why not try to match number of items with my years?
How old am I? You’reย asking…
Well stay tuned and find out…
