My mom has 3 different china cabinets and more glasses than the royal family. We only use the ones in the kitchen and maybe 4 in the new years.
The other day she said ahe would sell one of the sets, a very old time like tea set, but see that set was the last gift my granpa gave my grandma before he died and they are both gone...and my mom is getting older... and I had a anxiety attack thinking that she would get rid of that and started crying.
I think stuff Is just stuff, but idk man, it did hurt. Boy I'll have a bad time the day i have to get rid of those fucking glasses.
Step 1: Take pictures so that you can look back when you want to. The items are gone, but the memories are not. Step 2: Give them to someone who will appreciate them. Tell them the story so they can truly know what they meant to your family.
Just use them
I'll probably do this. China and glasses break, speacilly when is used. At least I wpuld feel like the stuff served it's purpuse and tbf in my house plates, glasses and cups break like once a week hhHahHhh
My friend has a set of napkins that is so important that they have never been used. Drives me bonkers.
Am I your friend?
So, weird similarities...I have a bag of napkins, like, the paper ones that you but from the store. I guess my dad bought them years ago and they just sat in his room, never used. After he passed, I figured, hey - free napkins.
I can't bring myself to use them because they smell like his room.
This sounds like a completely reasonable reason to skip using napkins. I love nostalgia and scent and have a few people I wish I could smell again.
No, my friend can’t use their napkins because they’re too high quality to be used. Such high quality that they’re never used. But never-used napkins that don’t smell like your late father’s room are not high quality at all. I think they’re effectively worthless.
Definitely use them. Every time you do, you’ll think of them, and it will bring you joy.
I bought a set of 4 matched plates off eBay. It may be shallow consolation but some of those plates and what-not go to loving homes. My plates are classy AF and I love them
