Took 7 brand new Teddy Bears to the Charity Shop this morning, along with a pile of books & CDs.

They’ve all been sitting in a suitcase for the past 6 months, waiting for me to have another market stall but I just thought “what the heck”! 2 months ago

A lot of time was spent tidying up areas of accummulated ‘stuff’ around the house on the weekend.

By Sunday morning 3 bags of clothing & knick-knacks were taken to the Charity Shop! 3 months ago

I’m off to the Charity Shop today – with a bag full of Better Homes & Gardens magazines, a few handbags, some kitchen utensils, CDs and more clothing.

Hopefully, the drop off is a quick one. I usually spend an hour browsing in the charity shop and come home with even more stuff! :-/ 5 months ago

Took another two bags of things to the Charity Shop yesterday afternoon and actually left without coming home with more! (that’s a first!)

Still clearing the cupboards & building on another load to go next week. 11 months ago

There’s been quite a few Teddy Bears living (or not) in cupboards at my parents house for the past few years and despite my Mother’s intent to “do something with them”, they’ve continued to hibernate in the cupboards! Needless to say, I was amazed and absolutely thrilled that Mum suggested we somehow donate them to children.

I wasted no time in sourcing happy recipients.

Today I took 20 brand new Limited Edition Teddy Bears to the Brisbane Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation as a donation to the many children who are bed-ridden there for months at a time.

The Foundation hold a Christmas in July event for the children each year and will now be giving each child a Teddy Bear! :-D 11 months ago

Now I am the first to admit I’m a Handbag (and shoe) Lover but….

Yesterday I spent the day with my Mum going through her cupboards to clear some space. At 3pm I drove off with a boot full of Handbags old and new (some never ever used still with the tags on them from like, 10yrs ago!).

Straight to the Charity Shop they went. 11 months ago

Filled a suitcase full of unwanted clothes, some shoes & a couple of handbags and took it to the Charity Shop this afternoon.

Only problem with this was that I had to STOP myself from coming home with MORE stuff!! lol _{I love charity shops!}11 months ago
