I think it's good to get rid of nice stuff, too. I tend to toss things in the giveaway box because I don't want them, but I'm going to try to give away stuff I do want, too.Pom Pomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524994024698986829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050166309154978857.post-16676420592046634192010-11-28T09:39:53.949+04:002010-11-28T09:39:53.949+04:00What a lovely remote control box!

The pink pillow looks great on it too. <br /><br />Speaking of decluttering, when we remodeled the house including the kitchen we used a bedroom in the basement to be the catch all. By the time we finished it was almost to the ceiling in 2/3 of it. We would try to declutter it and it was too overwhelming. Then guests were coming and we needed several rooms so we said to each other, "you can eat an elephant one bite at a time." We got up and spent 1/2 hour each morning (many mornings I was hooked in and spent longer) and by the time they got there it was done! My best declutter story ever!!!Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10074013194838958441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050166309154978857.post-59231238579266995752010-11-27T22:37:37.412+04:002010-11-27T22:37:37.412+04:00Oh Pats...loved your post - and y'knw?

After 3 days of spring cleaning, you can find me squatting amongst the rubbish in the dump truck looking for things I absolutely cannot throw out. <br /><br />I bought a similar box from Sri Lanka but it's a box with secret openings. Not a good idea to keep remote. :)Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050166309154978857.post-29276593584709418752010-11-27T10:03:39.349+04:002010-11-27T10:03:39.349+04:00Yes, I remember you beautiful purple rug!
