Do I have multiple of the same thing? I can’t tell you how many spatulas I see in

people’s kitchen drawers – one is probably enough, two at most. Get rid of those duplicates!

Could something I own do the same job? Do you really need a hard-boiled egg slicer when a knife will suffice? If you can live without it, put it in the giveaway pile.

Is this item worth the time I spend cleaning/storing it?

Like everything in life, it’s all about finding balance. Weigh up your choices – you might find it easier to let go that way.

Could I use this space for something else?

My favorite motivator when I’m working with my clients! Imagine how you could use the extra space with the clutter removed – a cozy reading nook for example!
