What things clutter the house
Home is a place where it is cozy and peaceful. In order to create this very coziness, we try to furnish our home with interesting trinkets. Someone is engaged in collecting, someone, on the contrary, loves more space and does not force the house with objects that are dusty on the shelf. Something on the one hand seems boring, and on the other – a pragmatic solution. You will not need to constantly wipe the trinkets from the dust. Imagine the amount of work you do if you want to move.

- Old furniture
Antique expensive furniture of the XVIII century adorns museums and excites the minds of auctioneers. Unfortunately, such luck happens rarely, and from older generations we get creaky sofas and retro chairs with rubbed upholstery. And rarely anyone wants to buy a carved wooden table weighing 150 kg. If such furniture does not fit into your ideas about home comfort, give or sell it. - Collections
Collectors are gambling people, they will never have enough, and they will not rest until they have assembled a complete collection of dolls, butterflies, coins or whatever. Sometimes it gets to the point that there is nowhere to step in the house. So if the collection does not represent any value for you (whether it is nostalgia or monetary value), it is for the dumpster, for charity, as a gift, but not for the garage or storage room. - Dolls
Once porcelain dolls were worth a fortune, and the rich collected them. The current generation appreciates digital technology more than the beautiful bottomless eyes on the sweet white face of a golden-curd doll. Experts are of the opinion that such a thing is expensive to sell, except for a symbolic price. - Silver
Silver silverware once could be sold for a decent amount of money, and having it in the house was a sign of the highest nobility. Every day, the value of silver is declining, and taking care of these things is quite troublesome. - china
A Chinese porcelain vase doesn’t always cost a lot of money, quite the opposite. Among the mountains of fakes, it is very difficult to find something really valuable, so it is Chinese-made things that risk being in the trash can first. - Carpets
Oriental carpets, and generally puffy surfaces, have outlived themselves. Convenience is paramount, especially for pet owners. Few people buy carpets with monograms and ornaments. People prefer monochromatic universal mats that can be easily washed in a typewriter. Children are not likely to enjoy such an inheritance.
