I am talking about getting rid of things that were given to you as presents.
One of my favourite animals is the giraffe. Because of this I bought a couple of giraffes to place on my hearth and later on a couple of more to put on my mantelpiece. Then my sons and friends decided I collected giraffes and started buying them for birthdays, Christmas and Mother’s Day and now I overrun by giraffes
The same thing happened with rocking horses. I bought a rocking horse to celebrate the birth of each of my sons and later on I bought a couple more that I liked, as well as a rocking giraffe, and then people decided I collect rocking horses and bought me many more.
I am hesitant to get rid of some of these as I am afraid that the person who gave them might be upset if I throw/give them away.
I just wish people would buy me craft supplies like I ask for.
So I am asking people how do go about getting rid of objects that were given to you as presents?
