Project Simplify June '08 Challenge

I've been wanting to do a major decluttering for awhile but I just haven't been motivated. BUT, I found this awesome project: http://simplemom.net/project-simplify/ and now I'm rearin' to go!

Who wants to join me? Each week I will announce a different area in your house to declutter/simplify/organize. Your duty is to take a before pic and post it at the beginning of the week then post an after pic at the end of the week. You can also write about your experience.

I will be providing decluttering and simplifying tips and motivations throughout the challenge.

So, who's in?! We start on Sunday!

  • I am so right the hell in.  I can't promise pictures, but lets just say my whole home can use help.  We have so much STUFF we are just in clutter hell. 

    Awesome idea, thanks!

    My before pics will probably scare some people! My bathroom cabinets have containers that have been here since we moved in (3 years ago) and I haven't used them in that long. WHY do I still have them?!?!

  • I'm so in! I will have to really keep some fire under my butt to stay involved, but our house is a MESS. I feel like no matter what I try it just doesn't work out Smile maybe being accountable will help

  • Some of the topics may not apply to me (ie toys) but maybe this will help me finish unpacking this house! Count me in!

  • I'd love to be in, but I just did this (well not this, but a similar concept of decluttering) a few weeks ago. I took 10 boxes to goodwill... I'm afraid I don't have much to let go of now.

    But I am very excited to watch you girls! I love organizing and cleaning (me=freak) and would love to help you if we lived closer.

  • I'm definitely up to give it a shot.  We still haven't totally unpacked since moving in 10 months ago.  : /
  • Sounds like a plan! We live relatively simply just because we don't have much space for clutter to accumulate, but we're definitely due for a clean out. Who knows what's in the back of those closets.
  • I'm in.... we still have boxes hidden around the house from when we moved in back in July :(
  • I'll give it a shot. Although, it might take more than a week to get some projects done. We still have stuff we haven't unpacked since we moved in to our house 4 years ago!

     

  • I am going to try... I NEED to do it, I'm just not sure I have the motivation or energy!
