    That depends on what it is. If your a crafter and know for certain you'll be using it in the future, keep. If you are dowsizing, then of course it's a "hmm, AM I going to need this?" If its a sentimental piece, that depends on near to your heart it is. Clothing, well, for me its,,,am I going to ever fit back in this😂? Good luck!

    if you don't use it every day, put it away. If you don't use it in a year, have a yard sale/donate to thrift store/ and what's left put in the bin.

    Put stickers with dates on items in question. Take off sticker before using. Anything that has a sticker that remains after 2 months, is safe to toss. Of course you must set aside items that are used for a specific time of year or holiday. Mark those for the season/holiday and get rid of anything you didn’t use by the end of the season. Consider donating items rather than tossing. Good luck!
