I made this cute little “dust” collector when I was about 13 years old at girls camp. I only went to camp one year. I must have thought it was so cute, because I kept it for years. Then one day I was cleaning things out and I came across it. I had all of these memories come immediately to my mind, then I thought, “I should throw this away. But it is so cute, and I made so long ago, I can’t get rid of it now!”

Actually, yes I can, and I did! I have learned through out the years that you can’t keep everything. One thing that I can do is snap a picture of it. Then I can almost have it forever. I can do a post about it on my blog, and then I can share it with everyone.

If you are struggling with letting go of things you should, take a picture, it will last longer and take up less space, and you won’t have to dust it!
