De-cluttering : Day 4

Not much was done on Sunday. I wanted to go to IKEA to view the kitchen cupboard before making a final decision whether to purchase or not. Then to buy some groceries as we are practically running out of food supplies.

At IKEA. After viewing the the kitchen cupboard, I decided not to buy it after all. I don't like the design and the material of the cupboard at all. I may look at other furniture shops for the cupboard to my liking. In the end we bought the kitchen island and two Book cases. One for me and one for hubby. I just don't want to have to fight for space with him.

I spent more time cleaning and organizing on Monday and Tuesday instead of de-cluttering. At the same time I focused on my crochet so as to get more done.


Today I decided to clear the area beside the cupboard. I had them relocated to another spot temporarily. Even though I planned to view the contents of the box files especially, later, I changed my mind and did it immediately. Glad I did. I was able to remove half the contents of each box files (two of them) and had them moved to the junkyard box. In its place I filled them up with items from a bag that was sitting in one corner of the living room for some time. In the end I was able to de-clutter another part of the living room which was not on the agenda yet. Does feel good, really.

Note: I had used this photo before.
The cupboard is now empty of its contents. Today I had the
items on the left relocated.

This is how it looks like now. After relocating the items, I had the
area mopped and cleaned. Will have another round of mopping
done when I cleared the table before setting up the kitchen island.

Thank you for stopping by.
