Maybe if you aim for the absolute bottom, but...I inherited my grandmother's house and belongings when she passed away. I own at least 90 towels, 20 sets of bedsheets, 6 sets of dishes including the sacrosanct "We don't even serve meals to god himself on those plates" "good china"...There's a lot of shit you can do without, or without as many of.
She might have come from an era when people were turning flour bags into dresses. At that time, you kept every scrap of decent fabric you had.
The word "decent" is doing a lot of work there. As for all the dishes, if your old ones are good enough to keep, why buy new?
