August Declutter Challenge

I don't know how I find these things, but I decided to take part in a declutter challenge. Anything that comes with a cool little button or banner that I get to use always gets me.

The idea is to get rid of something each day, I guess preferably something that I've been unable to get rid of in the past because of some emotional reason I want to keep it around, even when I shouldn't. Instead, I'll take a photo, blog about why it's meaningful, then allow that to be the keepsake, rather than the item itself.

So, rather than use my time to, you know, actually clean, I thought I'd take photos and blog about it extensively, instead.

I don't see this as something that's going to miraculously turn my messy house around, in fact I see it as a journalling exercise even more than a decluttering exercise, but it still sounds fun, and if I manage to get rid of a few things that are unnecessarily collecting dust around here, all the better.
