AWESOME .. THANKS!! Great video!! I loved hearing you .. like we were in the same room lol... much better than just a normal blog post! :D
I like your idea about using and giving away.. I had been thinking something similar... I am too cluttered in my M4M/ craft space and so I'm inspired now to go de-clutter it all!!

I don't think I have a lot of 'mental' clutter until I sit at my desk and see the 'physical' clutter :) OMG.. I have so many paper pads (without matching bits 'n pieces) that I will NEVER use.. but some days want!! HELP!! I've got rid of sooo many rubber stamps, and barely look at buying more, besides sentiments lol! Rubber takes up too much space!
And with the b'day cards - I only ever make them for people who I know will like them, or for the special occasions. Random b'day cards to random friends/family are a waste of my time I've found.. good luck clearing out your clutter! You sound like any new mum frustrated with all the crap in the house that she has to clean around and pick up!! :)

Alicia, this is fabulous, I've signed up for Sue's newsletter. I moved from a 4 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom flat about a year ago, in the process I did a lot of culling of my possessions, mainly larger items and I have a few boxes of stuff packed up in the garage. In my little home there is very limited storage so I find myself being quite cluttered. This is exactly what I need to help me. Thank you!

Thank you also for your suggestion that you put together little packs of your 'crafting goodies' I think I'll sell them off relatively cheaply, it will help to fund your next purchase as well as putting the odd pack up for blog candy.

Off to get organised and decluttered! OK off to plan the first bit.

Cheers,

Hey, nice video, love the decluttering theme. As we have just moved out, aalot of our clutter was left behind and is now squished and will be used for fill in our new house. That pleased me no end. (althougth the weeks of packing/sorting/chucking is still the hardest work I have done in a long time..)
However, I barely touched my craft stuff... That is next on my list and the thought of it has meant I haven't done any physical LO's in months. Lots of digi to keep me sane but I really have to tackle the stacks and stacks of craft stuff I have. sigh.At least I have stopped any new supplies from coming in by stopping subs - also a great relief once it was done.

Anyway, it was great to hear from you in person, love video blogs, more I say!! xx

Great video....I have just gone through my craft area and the best thing is I have a spot for everything again. I am really making an effort to clear up when I have finished one project before starting on the next. I feel much more inspired...
