:: The Autumn 'Spring' Clean ::

A few weeks ago I half-heartedly participated in A Beach Cottage's de-clutter mission. I did a pretty good job, but I wasn't completely dedicated because some rooms in my house are so messy that I didn't know where to start. You know how sometimes you just have so many things to do that you don't know where to start - so you don't do any of them? Yeah, that.

Gracie and I were speaking about our houses needing a good clean and we came up with the idea to follow on from A Beach Cottage's idea and host an Autumn 'Spring' Clean!


So, starting next weekend we will clean/de-clutter one room each weekend. If you spend a weekend focusing on just one room, it won't seem so daunting ... well, that's the plan anyway! Gracie and I will be posting before and after photos on our blogs, but also on Instagram and Twitter! So, if you choose to join us, use the hashtag #asclean so we can see your progress!

And now, just so you know I'm serious about messy rooms, check out my spare room. This room is supposed to be a second bedroom/craft room. Currently it is a dumping ground for things that don't have a home.


So, who's with us? Are you ready to give your house an Autumn/Spring clean?

  1. This is such a good idea :) to do something like this together and inspire each other!

    I did some serious de-cluttering before Christmas so I'm not in a desperate need...but who knows! There's always something you need to clean and organize :)

  2. Very excited to watch your progress. --I have a room (okay two) that I haven't decided what they will be...so they end up with just stuff. I don't think I have the momentum to work on that this month though...so I will simply watch you two. :)

    1. P.S. Did I tell you that I've got you on my blogroll and my "Blogs I'm Lovin' " page? I do. :)

  4. We are going to struggle with our craft rooms but like everything else we are going to motivate each other with this little project. I will have to start preparing myself for this :)

    I still absolutely love your little stand with stationery. I want something similar for all of mine. x

  5. Oh dear, you are making me feel guilty as I have been re-cluttering instead of de-cluttering on my various op shopping missions lately! Well done on your job :)
