The 100 Day Project - #100Days100ThingsDecluttered - Week 9

Welcome to Week 9 of the 2025 edition of #100Days100ThingsDecluttered, a special edition 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 is the list of items from Week 9:

1 pc of special fabric to a friend

3 partially eaten tins of nuts WAY past the expiration date  :o((

Total: 4/100

Not much, I realize, but it was a busy week that was followed by some time away.  Three out of the last seven days, to be exact!  Two additional days were spent prepping for this time away.  We head home tomorrow.

Updated 100 Day Project Total: 307/100

I so appreciate your willingness to cheer me along.  Thank you to those of you who encouraged me in my decluttering efforts last week!  I find this decluttering journey easier for your kindness.

Deb A @ Happy to be Scrappy blog had this to say:

Great job... we can include dead plants? Oh boy, I have a few of those!

I responded with the following:

LOL! I believe that when it's your project, you can include whatever you'd like. I am less likely to include things like that for the 100 Day Project than I am in the Declutter Discussion on Ravelry, but desperate times call for desperate measures. I had a goal to meet!!  :o))

Lyndsey @ Sew Many Yarns blog said this:

Great work with your decluttering this week. I don't do a declutter challenge but in addition to the usual cleaning I have a list of areas e.g. sewing cupboard, wardrobe, chest of drawers, and I work down the list ( one area a week) getting rid of items not needed or no longer fit for purpose as I go.

To which I answered:

Thanks, Lyndsey! Your list sounds like a really good idea.

Diann @ Little Penguin Quilts:

You're moving right along in your declutter project! It's probably time for me to join in - plenty of clutter around here, that for sure!

My response was this:

I'd love to have you join in on the decluttering fun, Diann! What area of your home needs it most?
