Much better, don't you think?  I put things up here that I seldom use--our barbecue tools and grill cleaner are to the right. 

I put the canning jars into a box and out on a garage shelf.  I also found five new boxes of Valentine's cards.  I had paid ten cents for each box, so I'll hold onto two of those for the kids to use next month. 

Now to toss all the rest of that stuff.  Ahhh....Liberation!
