12 Things You Should Never Declutter


Decluttering can feel freeing, but not everything should go. Today, I'm sharing 12 things you should never declutter.

These are items that might seem unnecessary at the moment but often prove useful or meaningful later. Let’s dive in, starting small and working our way up.


1. Toiletries

Before you toss that shampoo you didn’t love, think again. Old shampoo can be repurposed as body wash, shaving cream, or even cleaning products.

I personally use conditioner I don’t like for shaving. Eventually, you’ll use it all up, and it helps to do a no-buy month (or year!) to get through your stash.


2. Paper products

You might feel like you're drowning in paper towels, napkins, or toilet paper, but hang on to them. 

I once bought 20 rolls of paper towels right before switching to cloth towels, and now I use only about one roll a year.

But I’m set for the next two decades! You’ll always need these things eventually.


3. Infrequently used items
