10 Tips on How to Know When It's Time to Rid Yourself of Some Household Items

Sometimes it isn't broke, tacky, or not useful anymore, some of those items at your residence you just don't like much, are still wondering what you really need them for, and create clutter.  So when is it time to say, "So long?"

1.  You move it from one area to one room and it seems to be always in the way.
2.  Can you recall when you last used it?  Do you really need it?
3.  When guests come over and question, "Now how old are you again?"
4.  When it just doesn't make the home look comfortable.
5.  The item stands out, but that is all it does.  It doesn't enhance the environment and isn't needed.
6.  Guests are uncomfortable sitting on it, viewing it, and you are tired of them asking you a ton of questions about it.
7.  It is so cheap or unstable that if someone applies just a little pressure it would fall apart.
8.  When all it brings you is bad memories, grief, confusion, or rage if someone touches it.
9.  The kids are fighting over it and you are tired of policing their fall-outs.
10.  You just hate it and you don't know why.

Holding on to unnecessary items will begin to grate on your nerves.  They will also keep you from buying what you really want because all you seem to think about is, "I have no room...I wish I had the space...I need to really get this but..."  Save yourself the stress before the next time you shop, say goodbye to the things that aren't making life any easier!
