Potential Jumble

My pile of jumble is getting bigger.  So much stuff, so little time.  I will admit that I am really getting into clearing things out.

Five years ago, when we cleared Mum’s house after she died, I brought so much “stuff” back with me telling myself that I would put it on Ebay or sell it privately.   Five years later and we all know that I haven’t done anything about it apart from move everything further out of sight so I can’t see it, therefore it doesn’t exist.  The plan is now that it will go to the Jumble Sale and if I make a few quid, then that’s better than it just sitting somewhere in my shed taking up valuable space.

There are just the sheds now to see if there is anything worth getting rid of.  I have loads of unused horse/pony grooming stuff, etc and probably some old tack etc.  I hope I’m given a big table.

Anyway, that was my craft shed cleared this morning.

And I know my hoarding self – I find something to sell, value it, then think I should probably to keep it a bit longer…… and maybe I could buy another one, and oh, look there it is on Ebay….. now I could have a collection!

I can see where this is going to end up.  Shoot me if I bring home more than I sold. Sunday’s the day of selling.

(and I bet there’s an old wok on every table!)

    Frances we are sisters in heart and hand. I also am trying to clear out stuff. Also from a friend who passed 7 yrs ago !!, AND of course my collections too. Mostly craft supplies and of course books. My husband says he can match me pound for pound with his tools. I would win. We have a spare ? bedroom that has a big table in it and I put ( fling) things in/on there. It is called the “secret room” because the door is closed to any eyes, also to cats that would be lost in there forever.
    Wishing you success at your jumble and you are in my thoughts and prayers 😉
