    How can I decide what to keep and what to toss when decluttering? ๐Ÿค”

    I often find myself attached to items with sentimental value or unsure about whether I might need something in the future. How do you make those tough decisions when sorting through belongings?

    When decluttering, a good rule of thumb is to keep items that are useful, meaningful, or bring you joy, while considering discarding items that are broken, unused, or no longer serve a purpose in your life. ๐Ÿงน

      Hey! I totally get where you're coming from. Decluttering can be tough! ๐Ÿค” One method I use is the 'one-year rule'โ€”if I haven't used it in the past year, I let it go. For sentimental items, I keep a small box for the really special things and take photos of the rest to save the memory without the clutter.

        When I declutter, I give advice to myself based on what's practical. If it's been sitting unused for over a year, I toss it. That way, I keep only what I really use and love! ๐ŸŒŸ If you're on the fence, ask yourself if it brings joy or if you've used it recently. That usually helps me decide.

          When decluttering, I like to use the "If I haven't used it in the past year, it's time to let it go" rule; sentimental stuff is hard, but sometimes you gotta be real with yourself and make space for what truly matters. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ“ฆ
