Thursday - I made a couple more Ohio Star blocks and declutted an old mop head. ( This has been in the basement for at least 10 years. I bought it and it was the wrong size for our dust mop. Why I didn't return it, I'll never know. Just stuck it in the basement. No wonder I have clutter.)
Friday - Again I made a couple more Ohio Star blocks and cut red strings for the string blocks that are coming up soon. I've had the red fabric sitting at the end of my ironing board, so I decided it was time to get it cut. Decluttered item was tube of lotion I didn't care for. I love trying new things, but sometimes they aren't what you hoped for.
Saturday - Today was Quilt Day.
We made rag quilts today. I was cutting batting. Here is a link to Quilts From The Bluffs and the pattern we used.
Declutter item - I bought a new toaster and the old one is going out the door and NOT to the basement "just in case" the new one quits working. I know, where is the logic in that? But that is an old habit that I'm trying to change. I grew up with parents who lived through the Depression, so I think I learned some hoarder habits because of that.

I love binder clips! We use them for just about anything around here :) I have the "I might use it" or " I might wear that..someday" I too have been working on getting rid of things but it helps that I don't have all the extra $$ so I don't buy much anymore!
hmmm,I don't know about you,but I am so far behind that I think I am ahead!
Love your binder clip idea :)
I love the binder clip idea also!!
I struggle with mom's/grandma's "just in case" mentality also, but I am getting better too, one thing at a time!!
Good job decluttering this week!
