Gini on Sep 12, 2015Decluttering when you have a husband that was a collector of everything is definitely a time consuming job. It has been over 4 years and I'm still getting rid of my husbands things. Just the other day I took a box of books to a book store to have them only want 1 book. They offered me $0.25 or $2.75 in merchandise there. Now these were car books on older cars. Schematics etc. plus a set of another group of books. Ended up taking them to Goodwill. With all this "you can get it on the computer" just is a heart breaker and amazing how hard to get rid of things. I needed a bunch of DIY'ers to come over, but I'm getting there. New house will not have extra things moved in. Everyday I try and get rid of something.

A few years after this article was written, each piece of advice still applies. The neutral light color today might be gray, but the gray needs to be soft and spacious looking, not like a murky cave. And I think that getting rid of more stuff is more important than packing up to be reopened in a new house, especially if you are downsizing. Best wishes to all who read this ☺️
