SUPER FLING BOOGIE TIME! :)

It's Super Fling Boogie Decluttering Time! Let's kick some bootie here....kick it to the curb I mean!

Dig in and REALLY declutter your home.


Gather up all that junk....

Flylady says it's time for her:

"Super Fling Boogie Meter!!

Every few months we have what is called a Super Fling Boogie, we all
as a collective group around the world, rev up our engines and commit
to spending 15 minutes a day getting rid of the clutter in our
homes.The Super Fling Boogie will start on September 22nd in Zone 4
(The Master Bedroom) and we will go through all of the zones/rooms in
the home!!

To make this fun we have a pound meter set up below, we ask that
everyone either weigh or guesstimate the weight of what you get out of
your house. It could be trash, recycling or give away. If it leaves
your house, it counts as pounds tossed out of your home.

The meter will be up at
http://flylady.com
on Monday the 22nd!!!"


Over on Scrapperschallenge we will also be keeping track of how much
you FLING in the Boogie this fall! Here is the poll where YOU can
register how many sacks you got rid of during the Boogie. (Think in
terms of paper grocery sacks or ten gallon kitchen trash bags)

Here's how to get the job done if you need some straight forward tips

Lets do some fall cleanup so it is OFF our minds.

I just helped a friend declutter her garage today and we got rid of 4 huge boxes to donate and two giant rolling 40 gallon trash bins of garbage OUT of her space. All that was in her single garage PLUS what she kept as true tools and garage necessities. She is ver relieved to have cleared the space in about 3.5 hours with my help. :) Go us!

I was so inspired by reading this again that I took a trunk load of stuff from the garage and my closet and my house to the church's thrift shop today. It feels so good to have less!!! Jeni

A Spiral Christmas Tree Skirt

Image
Here you see a  gift I just finished this morning for my daughter. It is a spiral bargello style quilted tree skirt. I sewed on it all Saturday and Sunday this weekend and just had the ties to sew on this morning. It's an early Christmas gift kind of like the one I made for my son and his wife a few weeks ago .  T his spiral design my daughter chose also uses a 10 degree wedge ruler but is about 1/3 more time consuming than the randomly placed 5 inch charm square wedge style because you have to spend more time getting the strip formation right.  There was a SULKY brand online tut o rial and pattern for a single color repeat but I liked the slower color change better seen in the t wo photos below . I think the spiral design is enhanced by the more gradual color change. I saw these two spirals below on Google Images but they only led me to p icture link s and not a tutorial. I ha d to devise my own from looking at that pictures.   http://www.backyar...

Paper Stash Storage Solutions: 1- 12 inches of paper

Image
Your paper storage units should suit YOUR needs and YOUR paper storage style. Imagine this: Two people who sit down side by side at a crop party. Soon they will start talking about tool and paper storage. Pretty soon, one will want what the other one has. It all sounds so good --and it is working for her companion. But when she goes out to buy it, and she takes it home, it might be all wrong. Why?? Because those two people will NOT need exactly the same storage solutions! So how do you know what to invest in? And yes, paper storage is an investment. You don’t want to waste money or TIME. Spend your time and money on solutions that are great for YOU! How much paper do you have? Are you happy with your storage units? How do you plan on going about using it? Can you find a specific paper you need in less than 5 minutes? Choose containers and units that appeal to your sense of décor style AND your real storage needs. Don’t be fooled by cute shapes or new prints. No matter how cute, an acco...
