[quote=Anonymous]I inherited a number of items from my aunt and my father when they passed. My aunt was very talented and made a lot of needlework pieces that are framed for hanging, several stained glass pieces in large frames, and a lot of glassware. My father and uncle made a large, solid wood table that I now have. The needlework and stained glass, while expertly done and pretty, are not my style. They were made in the '70s and '80s and definitely look it. I have one stained glass framed in a window and a couple of the less dated of the needle works hanging around the house, but the rest are just stashed in storage because I don't want to display them but I also feel guilty getting rid of them. The table is nice, but too large for our kitchen and I already have a dining set in the dining room that I prefer. The table has a country vibe, which isn't really our decor. It is taking up space against a wall in the basement. I don't know what to do with these pieces. I the thought of getting rid of them feels horrible, but I don't really need them taking up space in my house. WWYD? [/quote]
