Sentimental items

Keep the best, not everything.

5 min read

Letters, kids' artwork and family things are the hardest to let go of. Leave them until you've practiced on easier spaces.

Ideas

  • Choose a container and keep what fits
  • Keep the best few pieces, not every one
  • Photograph items before you let them go
  • Offer family pieces to relatives first
  • Take your time; there's no deadline
