I know it sounds cliche but spring cleaning actually exists. I am struck down my this motivating cleaning bug at almost exactly the same time each year. Big big garbage bag of unwanted clothing went into the Red Cross bin this morning. But there are some things you just don't want to give to charity. Because they have rips, weird stains and other strange anomalies. Also, some things you just don't want other people to have. Sometimes you want to burn something, or let it rot in a hole in the ground. Stuff that reminds you of things you would rather not be reminded of. I think it's best to do what is right for you. If I really want to get rid of something I throw it in the bin. It gives me great pleasure to know that something that I have held on to for far too long will decomposing in landfill, returning to the earth, returning to nature.

It's nice to get rid of the old and make space for the new. It's amazing how many clothes hangers I have now. Just waiting for new clothes....

hehehehe.

I'm off to check out some new clothes on Ebay.

Art Deco Detail Wardrobe




















I love old art deco stuff. It's such a refreshing change from those "I want my house to look like a cold steel veterinarian's workspace". Current styles suck. Wood is warm and old things are just better. I don't know why, they just are.

Twin Handled Tray















I've always liked these for some reason, maybe one of my grandparents had one, I don't know. There's something warm and fuzzy about food being served on a wooden tray.

Metal Dancing Figurine




















I love these dancing figures. This one looks like she's getting something off her foot rather than dancing. Still love it, though.

Art Deco Vanity




















You can find this nifty art deco dresser on Ebay for 0.99c at present with just over 3 hours to go in the auction. It doesn't quite go with the garage bricks but you get the idea!

Art Deco Chairs




















According to the description, these need a little restoration but for $34 for 5 chairs it could be a bit of a steal, actually. They look pretty comfy too!

Hold the phone, dim the lights, here we go! Very soon, savesavesave will have a completely new look. You might not even recognise it. But, it's still me, same wacky shopping adventures, same bat place, same bat time.
