In reply to Kerri Bell. I love that that idea is totally clutter-free! You're just decorating something that is already useful to you.

In reply to Karen Gonzales. That's such a great idea! So much of that stuff won't even make sense out of context when we've totally forgotten about the event!

As one who is soon to turn 57 on Monday I can say that the memories don’t always stay with you. So I suggest that journaling may be the only way that you can really preserve your past. You think you will vividly remember that ticket stub or memento came from but fast forward 20 or 30 years and the likelihood is you won’t. So putting it in a journal with an explanation of why it was important can be so valuable later.

We buy a sticker as a souvenir. The sun shield for my windshield is the recipient of all our fun stickers. The collection just keeps growing. Others enjoy looking at it as they walk but my car.

In reply to Beth. I love that idea! Useful in so many ways, and it's a great way to cheer up a chore that gets old quickly.

We have a conservation law in Hawaii that we must use reusable bags in every store . So being a minimalist; that’s my “go to”. I buy a bag from my vacation destination( Trader Joe’s has fun bags depicting major cities or states). Sometimes it’s a national park bag like my Death Valley, Grand Canyon & niagra falls bags . Or just a cool canvas bag from a store in England. What I like about this is every time I’m shopping back home ; I have a smile pulling out the bags remembering that trip and get to relive it and brighten my day! Huge helper for gratitude and relieving a stressful grocery run . And doesn’t take any space packing as I’m the carry-on only no fuss type !!!! And I can even carry it on full of edible goodies/gifts for My friends & family! I don’t seem to get excess; because I use them so much that an old one will usually wear out by the next years vacation! ( and my family members keep “borrowing @ them , lol.
