Pension Credit

I wish to declutter our home, as I receive pension credit do I have to inform the DWP if I sell off my own belongings. Particularly if my wife would probably wish to buy new things with the money 😄

Thanks, what I meant was, if I sold our John Ditchfeild vase for £500 would I have to declare it, or can I buy something else with the proceeds without worrying that the DWP would deduct money from my PC, or even worse?0
