If there's no more space for nicknacks in the house, there are plenty of empty "shelves" out in my backyard. Mom's house is a typical Filipino home -- nicknacks on every shelf available. Guess who has to do the dusting!?!
A miniature planter...maybe Uncle will use it to plant some Chia Pet seeds.
More odds 'n' ends that we just couldn't bear to throw away.
The way that i got cured of my inherited "packrat" mentality was to backpack Southeast Asia (many years ago) with just two carry-on backpacks and live out of those two bags for two months. But i was such a fitness fanatic during that time that i actually brought two 4-pound hand weights, which i hefted up and down as we drove around Bali! (On another trip, i even climbed up and down the highest ruins in Tikal (in Guatemala) two times...in the heat of mid-day, just to get my daily workout...i was mental! i'm more sane now...i just do Zumba con Arleen.)
