The therapy of cleaning

Monday, 9 April 2012

A little while back I visited my sisters for her birthday!
It was fun, but she's pretty busy (and messy) and I caught sight of her office and I got a little itch to just give it a good tidy. But I didn't have time there and then
So....
I went to stay at my sisters again over Easter and this time I had enough time to clean it up properly and wanted to give my sister a real 'before and after'

I give you the before...





And after! ...



It was the best to have my sister be so shocked by the results, it didn't even take that long- maybe 35-40 mins and my 'itch' to neaten it up had finally been scratched.
It kind of makes me want to clean for a living! Or maybe a hobby... haha

I have bags under my eyes...

Designer bags that is!

I'm joking, I actaully have some of the grossest bags I have ever seen in my life before me (or under my eyes as such) haha!

If you follow me on the ol' twitter then you may know that I did a bit of a spring clean or winter clean really and got rid of soooo many old bags that I've had for maybe 4 or 5 or 6 years, some even older and I just sat and thought, what on earth are these doing in my room!? I'll never ever use these!

I don't know about you but I'm more of a 'two bags at a time' sort of girl, I'll have one practical for everyday, and one more dressy, and I use them both until they wear out or I get sick of them, then buy another two, but the problem was- I wasn't actually getting rid of them, I was just keeping them in a 'safe place' incase I needed them.

If I've not used them in a year, then quite simply, I'm never going to use them!

Feast your eyes upon these as the four most picture worthy:


The last remaining to hit the shelves of the charity stores, the hello Kitty bag is actually quite cute but it's much too little for me, the grey bag has a cheerleader on it with sticky out pom poms!
As for the playboy one... Maybe someone will want it for a fancy dress party to go as a playboy bunny? Haha, I'm not so sure.
The grey glitzy clutch actually still has a tag on it, and it is kind of nice, but it's good to be ruthless when cleaning out!

So there you go, a little peek into some of the worst of the worst, but I sure hope it made you smile, or at least made you remember maybe something that you store up to use 'another time' but that time will never come! So we can all have a clear out together!
