One of My Best Finds from Sorting Mom's Things

I'm still in the thick of going through my Mom's things. I had everything in my childhood home sorted by my decluttering coach, Ally Cainta. It took 8 days to sweep through the house and categorize the items into boxes.

I've been going through each item in all the boxes and I've lost count how many I've gone through. The hardest to go through are the documents and Mom's bead collection. I always find something that's mine in her things. It's not surprising since I lived the longest in the house and I had left a lot of stuff there.

I had a collection of pins from the EDSA Revolution and I always wondered where they were. I found one today - I ♥️ Ninoy pin. I hope I find the others since it's memorable for me. I was 10 when the event unfolded.

I think I've gone through 60% of Mom's things. Majority of her things are craft materials. I'm organizing them by category and I realize now why she didn't really want to shop a lot at Spotlight - it's because her stash is 100x bigger than mine. Haha.

Part of her zippers -

Part of her thread collection (she barely used the ones I bought for her) -

I'll put everything together first and then figure out what to do with everything. I've only decided so far, to divide her angel collection across her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Let's see where it goes :)
