Really, simplifying doesn't just mean getting rid of "stuff." Sometimes reorganizing an area can make a big impact as well.
I had kept my many cookie cutters in a large zip-lock baggie that wouldn't close; it was too full. It looked messy and spilled periodically. During my stay-at-home-mom days, I had sold Tupperware and acquired a nice set of modular containers. One very large one for chips had sat empty for about 3 years in that same cupboard. It dawned on me recently, "Why don't I put the cookie cutters in that container?" They all fit and I feel that I simplified an area that had annoyed me for a long time.
now that was a great idea! :)
