Gifting
Do you have a lot of sentimental items in your home (or basement, or attic) that are never used but you just can't bear to part with them? Years ago I began to collect those things around my house- childhood books, jewelry, charms, artwork, etc. and began to think of people in my life who may appreciate them. I gifted most of those sentimental items to friends who would understand their value. It made it easier to part with them rather than selling them or donating them to charity. And they also turned out to be some of the best presents my friends have received.
