Husband and I have been divorced over 20 years and my children didn't want it. If you think your children will want to inherit it, ask them, then send it to live with them. I tell you it is the most freeing thing you will ever do.

I am putting post cards, favorite greeting cards, or fabic on an index card inside my plastic bins. I can still easily see what is in them, and they do not look like cluttered boxes.
