Decluttering and reorganizing any space starts with the most difficult step: deciding what to keep and what to discard. Some items are easy to get rid of, especially if you don’t have a use for them, while others are much more difficult to part with.

When simplifying your space, consider the value of each item and think about potential future uses. You can always store them, and if you change your mind, you can discard them later. I hastily sent off several vintage family heirlooms to a new home with distant cousins, and I regret it to this day.
