This boot load of books and toys is the result of a major declutter in the kids rooms.
After we had sorted items for donating, I further edited down the toys, filling three 60 litre storage bins which are ready to go down to our shipping container.
This was necessary to make space for the girls to share a bedroom. Although their room is large and they share a bunk bed, there was still a lot to fit in the space and we wanted some floor space for them to play.
My son now has a load of space in his room, having moved the sofa out into our new home office. His room is the only one that we have completed so far. The other two rooms are almost there, so I will finish them off tomorrow when the house is empty and I can really get stuck in.
The kids seem happy with the changes overall and are rediscovering toys that had been hidden amongst the clutter. There has been the odd moment of concern, about not having as many toys or missing the familiar mess, but, it is something they need to come to grips with - just as I will when I come to decluttering my possessions.
More pics coming tomorrow!
