While you are sorting, you need to decide what stays and what goes. Ask yourself:
Checklist √
Do I use it anymore and how many do I really need? | |
Is it in good condition, can it repaired, recycled or repurposed? |
Once you have finished it is time to return the linen to the cupboard. Now is a good time to zone the linen cupboard.
Step 2

- Stack like with like.
- Frequently used items sit front and center.
