The 100 Day Project 2025 - #100Days100ThingsDecluttered - Week 1

Welcome to the 2025 edition of #100Days100ThingsDecluttered, a new mini-series here at The Joyful Quilter!!  I started The 100 Day Project last week.  I'm excited that I've committed to it, again.  It's particularly popular on Instagram.  I was hesitant to participate before last year.  I'll be releasing weekly updates on Tidy Up Tuesday for those of you who might be interested in seeing what goes out the door.

What did you say your project was, again, Joyful???

I signed up with a different idea in mind than most.  You can read about it HERE.  That link will tell you all about my project.

The gist of my focus...

Decluttering my home and studio in an effort to free up space for MORE creativity.

Here's my progress for Week One:

I can’t imagine that I will do as well as I did last year, getting 5 times as many things out of the house as I had hoped, but I’ll do the best I can.

I got rid of the following items:

1 pr earrings
1 waffle iron
1 blender
12 coat hangers
2 cardboard boxes
1 medical boot
1 pencil
1 notions bag


Total: 20/100



Can you believe I forgot to get a photo for Week One???  I'll try not to make that mistake again, but it was a tough week in Joyful QuilterLand.

Thank you to those of you who encouraged me in my decluttering efforts as I kicked off this challenge!  I appreciate your kind comments and your willingness to cheer me along.  Sara @ My Sewing Room had this to say:

I sure need to jump back into the challenge.  We live in a big house with too much stuff.  So I probably WILL join in.  Good luck to BOTH of us!

Sara

She participated alongside me last year and was pleased with her progress.  I'm glad that Sara might serve as my accountability partner again this year.

Come back next week to see what goes in the box during the next 7 days.  You can also follow me on Instagram @thejoyfulquilter, if you are there more often than in BlogLand.

Until next time...
Do the 100 Day Project!!!

  1. This is such a good idea. I am not on Instagram, although I have an account, I just don't use it. I like reading blogs because there is more conversation. I need to come up with 100 yards of fabric to move out, LOL!! But maybe I can do more with other areas of the house.
