After the holidays, it is common to find yourself saying, “what the #@*% do I do with all these gifts?!”. Here are 3 easy tips to help you decide “what the #@*%” to do:
The “I can't get rid of it because insert family member gave it to me” dilemma: We are all guilty of keeping gifts like these. When you feel this way, you likely don't want the present for a number of reasons. It is okay to donate it! Someone else will appreciate and make better use of it than you do.
Sentimental Gifts: While we may not use these gifts every day, we often keep them because of their emotional significance. A great solution is to create a "Christmas Gift Memorabilia Box." Store these meaningful items with your other holiday decorations. This allows you to preserve the gift without adding clutter to your everyday space.
Space issues: If you're struggling for space, ask yourself:
Do I already have something similar that I like more or less?
If so, keep the one you prefer, and consider passing on the rest. This way, you can make room for things that truly bring you joy.
