    Default Cleaned out DS's room

    Well once again it was time to dump the toybox and clean out the toys from McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's and Subway..and all toys that were broken or missing parts.

    Wow.. I threw out one 10 gallon bag of broken toys today.. I set up tree seperate toy boxes.. his large one houses all his stuffed animals now...a smaller one holds cars and smaller toys and a drawer systems holds his movies and legos...

    I am wiped out..that took two hours to get it organized again..

    I do this project about every 2-3 months...

    I'm also trying to weed out toys that can go to his younger cousins... (just not having much luck he keeps catching me at it)..*LOL*

    Good for you, I bet that feels better~! I know what you mean about being "caught", I have to do the decluttering when my daughter is out of the house!

    Good for you I love the feeling of decluttering toys. I swear they make up 95% of our clutter.
