As you go through experiences in life, it’s common to keep souvenirs to help you remember the times you had. However, eventually these souvenirs can build up in your apartment, and before you know it you have too many items cluttering your space.
If you find that you have too many keepsakes around your Quarters apartment in Lady Lake, FL, consider the following ways to save your memories without tangible objects there as a reminder:
- Save one or two items – For big life events, it’s tempting to store away boxes full of souvenirs. For example, you might have every book you read in school or every toy you loved in childhood. Try to pick out just a few items that bring you true joy, and then recycle or donate the rest.
- Repurpose items – Think of creative ways to use your keepsakes for a practical purpose. For example, turn your souvenir T-shirts into a quilt. Or use your knickknacks in an art project that you can display. Scrapbooking is also a wonderful hobby that puts all your memories into a form that you can leave on your coffee table for everyone to enjoy.
- Take pictures – One way to let go of physical things is to take photos. Documenting your keepsakes in photos will help you feel better about getting rid of the actual objects you’re holding onto.
