Now I'm not one for clutter but I do tend to put stuff in cupboards I'm not sure what to do with ,
I have just spent quite a while sorting a cupboard I have on the landing and the Bathroom cabinet and I'm amazed how much rubbish I had ,
Half used Anti deodorant, tubes of cream ,hair grips, half bottles of shampoo , etc out of Cabinet ,
Then I tackled the cupboard , I keep my towels and spare toilet rolls in there but also have baskets on shelves , well it was a eye opener , Half bottles of mouth wash from when B was having Chemo, cotton wool balls I cant remember buying, 7 old tooth brushes I keep for scrubbing around tap and edges of the skirting etc , then found two pkts of 6 cheap tooth brushes I bought from the £ shop to do the job , 3 bars of Imperial leather soap again no idea when they were bought , A hair dye I knew I had one somewhere couldn't see it so bought another. DOG POO bags !!!!! why in the landing cupboard ? ? Then tucked down the back of one of the shelves Two white pillow cases still in their wrapper they had wedged themselves well and truly at the back , its not a huge cupboard its a free standing one I bought from Ikea but boy does it hold a lot of junk .
Nice and tidy now empty of all that stuff , I will ger myself up to sort the wardrobes and drawers in the spare room but it wont be today

This house used to belong to friends of ours (we bought it from the man who bought it from them) and one of the things I always loved about the house was the huge amount of built in cupboards, and couldn't understand why my friend was not clutter-free with all that storage!! Now I know!!! Clutter accumulates to fill the space available and then carries on accumulating everywhere it can!
