This challenge ended up being both harder and easier than I thought. The adrenaline I felt from this being my first challenge made it easier to realy get rid of stuff.
Heaps and heaps of cookware. I ended up keeping only four pots and four pans all in varying sizes.
Ridiculous amounts of utensils. I had so many that I haven't used in months or ever!
I forgot to take a before picture of my silverware drawer and it was by far the hardest for me to downsize. I had random forks and spoons from when I was a kid. For some reason I just couldn't seem to let it go. They were nowhere near a full set. Just one or two pieces from different sets here and there. I guess they were just full of nostalgia.
I finally convinced myself that keeping them was pointless and the memories I have of them is better than actually hanging on to them. All of that over silverware. Ha!
For the first time I have an empty cupboard that I don't know what to do with! This used to be stuffed with just pots. It actually didn't even fit all of them. I had to keep some in the pantry.
It was freeing to let this stuff go. Another huge plus, I no longer have a huge pile of dirty dishes ominously lurking on my counter top.
