It's the First of June, midsummer is a scant 3 weeks away, and those Declutter bugs should be bursting out of their cupboards about now!

Anyone else putting away winter stuff? Isn't it time you went over all the stuff you didn't use this winter and see if it can't be donated, decluttered or downright dumped?!

I'm starting by making 3 new pairs of trousers today and dumping those I'm no longer able to wear (mainly because I've worn them so thin you could read a newspaper through the seat!) and putting winter jumpers and coats into vacuum bags to save space. Then there's the blanket that I'm giving a new lease of life to, by using it as the batting in a quilt I'm making.

But the most important bit of decluttering... take 10 or 20 minutes out of each day to just sit and declutter your brain; sit by a pond, lie in the sun, snuggle up to a best beloved or just ponder with a favourite iced drink of your choice and be still.
