Happy November—and happy gathering!
We love November for its cozy feeling—and for the happy busy-ness of getting ready for the holidays.
It’s also a great time to take a fresh look at the things you use and love most. If you’re thinking about a downsizing move, the holiday season gives you a natural opportunity to evaluate your kitchen tools, serving pieces, holiday decorations, and family traditions.
As you pull things out and prepare for Thanksgiving, ask yourself: What do I really love using? What has meaning? And what am I ready to let go of?
This month, we’ve gathered a few articles to help you think about downsizing in the spirit of the season—from Thanksgiving traditions and treasured family recipes to deciding what to do with that car you no longer need.


Do you have treasured family recipe cards or cookbooks from women in your family? You’re not alone!

Do you have an unused, unneeded or out-of-commission car taking up space? Sometimes the best approach is to donate it to a charity of your choice.

Sorting through and organizing your family’s cherished heirlooms and memorabilia can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be if you break it down into these simple steps.
