Welcome to Day Eight!
Today’s decluttering task is…STATIONERY & PENS.
How many pens do you own? Notebooks? Random highlighters? Time to get real about what you need.
I have to admit that I am a bit stationery obsessed. I have been know to take a trip to Officeworks after the kids are in bed just to walk up and down the aisles of lovely stationery and Kikki K stores give me heart palpitations.
Try to segment your goodies so that they are contained and organised. Put pens away into pencil cases, keep notebooks in a specific space and USE THEM before you buy more!
Remember it is OK to get rid of stuff that is new/unused or even expensive. Re-gift it, give it to charity, just don’t KEEP it!
Remember to think about these things when deciding if something should stay or go.
Do I use it?
Do I love it?
Does it serve a genuine purpose for a genuine need I have?
Am I keeping it “just in case”?
