Welcome to the second of this series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with organising and decluttering expert Peter Walsh.

This time we are tackling one of the more challenging aspects of downsizing – what to do with gifts and heirlooms. Whether you need to free up space in your own home or are helping someone else to downsize, this is a task that can feel daunting and emotionally charged.

Although it might be tempting to box everything up and hide it away to deal with another day, that just passes the problem down the road to your future self or to your family.

Fortunately, there are ways to downsize gifts and heirlooms that honour and remember the past whilst enabling you to rightsize your life for the present day.

GRAPEFRUIT

Felicity from Titahi Bay

Hi, I recently made marmalade for the first time - surprisingly easy from the Edmonds cookbook and absolutely delicious - and would love to make some more. I don't want the perfect looking apricot coloured spheres from the supermarket, I want the wonderful juicy REAL grapefruit from the trees… View moreHi, I recently made marmalade for the first time - surprisingly easy from the Edmonds cookbook and absolutely delicious - and would love to make some more. I don't want the perfect looking apricot coloured spheres from the supermarket, I want the wonderful juicy REAL grapefruit from the trees in my neighbourhood! Does anyone have any to give away or sell please? I only need 6 large or equivalent in weight in small or medium, as they make a load of jars! Thanks
