Sentimental gifts can be a personal, meaningful way to share with family members or old friends...and there is still time this season to find:
- Mementos from the company where one of your parents or grandparents worked
- Souvenirs from a summer camp or family vacation spot
- An old toy or doll someone loved (or coveted but never got)
- Favorite books or comic books
- A magazine from a memorable year (not necessarily a birth year - which we don't remember!)
- A piece from your grandmother's china pattern
- A toy model of the car your dad drove
- A baseball card or pennant from someone's favorite team
- College or high school memorabilia
- Old record albums (Restoration Hardware has album-size frames for instant art)
Some people on your gift list will be thrilled with a sentimental gift...others might be confused and ask you why you are giving them some old piece of junk. Your job is to know the difference!
