Happy New Year 2019!
My daughter and her boyfriend got me this book as one of their gifts this year (I had suggested it). 'The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning' was a quick, enjoyable read. Author Margareta Magnusson describes herself as being 'between 80 and one hundred'. She shares her wisdom with us, urges us to take responsibility for our clutter before we die rather than leave it to others. I am now encouraged to do some decluttering. Hopefully this doesn't go the way of many New Year's resolutions!

Happy new year dear Christine!
Perhaps you could share some of the suggestions in the book with us.
Have a happy, blessed 2019, Christine!
Sounds like good advice, but I have some clutter that I love, so it's staying! Have a great start in the new year, hugs, Valerie
Hi Christine sounds like an interesting book,i have been decluttering the last month or so,its amazing the stuff we hoard,lol xx
I enjoy my clutter but as I age I realise I have to go through it regularly and let some of it go.
Have a great year my friend.

Merry 2019 ~ may it bring you the decluttering you seek, and lots of creativity!
I would have a hard time letting go of my treasures...I would never call it clutter :) Besides, I might throw away something that one of my family members wanted. So I will just keep my clutter...I mean my treasures safe in their cupboards, on their shelves and in their containers.
Happy New Year Christine~
Decluttering in on my bucket list.
May your 2019 be filled with peace, joy, good health and prosperity.
Happy New Year, Christine! That is an interesting book. I should check it out.
The new year sounds like a great time to make changes in your life. Happy New Year!
Ha! Sounds like just the sort of book I could benefit from too. Best wishes.
This morning I am going through photos and getting rid of old notes and such. My sister's death has prompted me to get rid of things that no one would want should I be gone in a moment.
Happy New Year Wishes to you and yours.
All the best Jan
My question when it comes to Declutter...Is how I got all these items.
Coffee is on

Cool book, happy 2019 ❤
Happy New Year, decluttering your home.
it's always hard to make some decisions on whether to keep or throw. Sounds like an interesting book. Have a great new year Christine xx
