One of the good things about moving house is that it gives you the opportunity for a really good clear out.
Not that I need an excuse to have a clear out, so even I was amazed at the amount of things we had out grown over the past 5 years
It was suggested that I do a car boot sale but to be honest I like to donate my unwanted things to charity.
I may not have spare cash to give to my favored charity’s but by donating my unwanted things it helps them raise the money they need.
I am waiting on the arrival of my new Red chaise end Sofa and Plain Red chair ( and no I never paid that price in fact its an early 50th birthday gift ) so I needed a home for my present settee and chairs.
Recently I met a couple who have set up a fantastic charity called Lifeline 4 Chernobyl the work they do is amazing π
So today my Settee and chairs were collected and will be in there next auction.
If you live in the Kings Lynn / Downham market area please give this charity a thought, if you have unwanted items at home that may be suitable to auction.
you can ring Dave or Pauline on 01366 324496
I always love to give my unwanted things away too. I like to think that someone else is getting some use or pleasure out of it π
The new furniture looks cool π
@ladybanana that’s a brilliant idea, letting you know what has been raised.
That’s also what I like doing, I’ve given loads of stuff to charity shops. One of them sends me a statement every few months to show me how much they made from my items and the chance to claim the money for myself if I so wished to do so. I have a little card with a donator number on so they can claim gift aid.
Love your new furniture π
