Picture Frames

I used to make craft things with picture frames...and I would still like to, BUT...

1. I don't have the time.
2. What will I do with the things I make?
3. Where will I store the supplies?

Therefore, while going through items, I decided to get rid of 15 picture frames.  Ten of them can be used as is for pictures, 5 of them are straight from the craft store and ready for a project.

I probably won't use them anytime soon, if ever, and I would rather have the space right now.  While going through them I thought of FlyLady when she says that if an item can be easily replaced at a later time when you need it, get rid of it.  So, that's what I did.  I didn't need them, use them or love them; they are in my car ready to be dropped off today.  That makes me feel good :)

Here they are!

Boxes on Stairs

A few days ago I went through some of the items that were on the stairs and was able to throw away and give away some of the things.  I took a bag for donations that contained:

• two new car seat covers
• stuffed animals
• shower clock radio
• alarm clock

These were the main items along with some smaller things, but I was glad to get a bag dropped of at my local donation center.

What I threw away was a bunch of expired toiletries and other items such as:

• heating patches
• eyeliners
• lipliners
• lipsticks
• old cosmetic bags not donation worthy
• dried up markers

Again, there were other things, but I just can't remember what they were.

I did pull out a couple good things, band-aids and new in package tweezers.  Both of these will go to use.  In addition, I am giving a good 8" saucepan with lid and new cutting board to a friend of my mom's...I just hope I don't see it in the house for another week!  My mom told me her friend needs pans.

The rest of the things were books, learn to play the guitar DVD's, small enameled picture frames and my pans and a couple small kitchen gadgets.

Where in the world am I going to put the things I will use when I move out?  Maybe I'll re-box them in plastic containers and keep them in the basement as "KEEP" items.
