Handling Unwanted Kitchen Presents with Katy Annulli


Listen Later

Unwanted kitchen presents can quickly clutter our kitchen spaces and become more of a burden than a gift. In this video, host Angela Brown and professional organizer Katy Annulli tackle the sensitive topic of letting go of kitchen items given as gifts. 

They discuss how holding onto unused items, doesn't truly honor the giver. Angela and Katy suggest realistic ways to handle items we don't need - like re-gifting gently used gadgets or donating extras of dishes and appliances. They also touch on evaluating our actual usage of fancy dishes and trendy kitchen tools to prevent clutter. Overall, Angela and Katy provide compassionate strategies to value the intention of the giver while still maintaining an organized, functional kitchen.
