Sentimental?

[Redhelen72]

With packing and downsizing we have made up our minds to get rid of as much as possible which isn’t a problem for me or so I thought!
I cannot throw out the jars of pickles dad made me! I don’t even like them!
But everytime I go to do it I end up in tears!
Daft isn’t it!
Are you sentimental and hold onto stuff not necessarily photos etc

I have pair of woolen golf socks that my sister gave me just before she died. They're full of holes but I still wear them for golf, and I'll say I'm taking her for a game of golf when I put them on. Crazy eh?!!

I have a table with dad's photos set up on and a candle that I light every day and I talk to him each time I pass!
God I miss him so much

Ahhh RH, wait til your ready, some people just throw everything away, but, wait til your ready - I do the same with the candles x

Take a photo of the jar (s). play around with a bit of photo editing software, give them a pop art background and frame them. It's the memory of what they mean that's special

That is such a good idea Rowan thank you for that.

Red, OP not daft at all just lovely that you remember them x

they could be some hidden treasures too.

Thanks all after rowans wonderful suggestion, I have taken some photos and whilst they have not yet made it to the bin they have made it out of the pantry
