When we think of decluttering, most of us think about donating, or throwing something in the trash. But there's another way to declutter and that is to 'Use It Up.'

When I opened the cabinet where I store my candles, for example, it hit me. There were far too many candles in there. Some I purchased; many I received as gifts. I have evergreen scents for Christmas, floral for spring, lemon and coffee scented for anytime, etc. In that one moment, I decided I had way too many, and it was time to declutter.

But then I could not choose which to donate. Honestly, I liked them all. So I decided my candle decluttering goal was to use them up. Since that time I have kept one on my kitchen counter. I may not burn it every day, but the candles are slowly getting used. They're also adding such a nice scent and ambiance to our home after dinner.

One thing led to another. I have makeup samples I've been collecting that I decided to use up as well. I get these complimentary nearly every time I make a purchase at my cosmetics store. It has been fun to try the new brands.

You may have those small containers of hotel shampoo and conditioner that you collected on your last trip. Use them up...and enjoy them while you're doing so. Maybe even reminisce about the fun you had on that trip.

Don't buy another notebook until you use those you have. Collect all of them in one area, and then use one at a time.

There is food in the freezer I can use up. In fact, there's enough that I don't have to buy as much in the supermarket this week. Do you have the same?

Look around. Do you have things you can declutter simply by using them up?
