cleaning out

While Charlie was gone I did a lot of cleaning and finally got around to listing a million wedding items online. I'm so ready to get all of this clutter out of here! It's been piled in our guest bedroom closet for two months and every time I have to go in there I cringe. Now, hopefully it all sells! 

Anyway, while I was cleaning I came upon hundreds of cards. I have literally saved nearly every single card that I have received in my life. I even have cards from the day I was born! I decided that I probably can't keep doing this for the rest of my life without taking up tons of space. 

Luckily, I recently came across an idea on Pinterest to go through and decide which cards are truly important (hello, day of birth card!) and keep these. Then scan the rest onto your computer and donate them. I love that I'm getting rid of clutter and able to help someone at the same time! I thought I'd share this with you so you can make sure to keep this in mind for the upcoming holiday season!
