Random tips I've discovered in decluttering over the past few years (yes, I've been at it for years)

-Always have a give away box going. This encourages giving things away--it will only linger in this box until the box is full and away it goes.

-Any other parents here? My kids seem to collect tiny toys that would be thrown away if donated. I have a stash of tiny toys they never play with or kid meal toys they never opened and give them away on Halloween with candy. Allergen friendly!

-Plan B. I tried to sell a thing on craigslist but there were no bites, so I gave it away. I'd rather have the space than the money.

-Pick a challenge area and do it. The linen closet? The medicine cabinet? The fridge? Clean it out and get things on their way.

Another option is to give them to K-3 teachers for a 'treasures' box for kids to pick from.
