  Fabulous Reader Tip

Stop Foods From Freezing in the Refrigerator



I use an empty egg carton in the back of my refrigerator as a spacer. No more frozen greens or water or milk. I put the carton in sideways so the egg part is against the back of the refrigerator. Still allows the cold air to circulate.

  GON Reader Letter

Thanks for all the great advice!





Maria, you have really inspired me to declutter. Last month, I began a serious journey to declutter. I am almost done, save for some items in my kitchen and the giveaways in my servant's quarters. It's truly amazing to bring in more oxygen and some order into my house. I will bring in new plants to clean up the air, finally! Thank you very much for the motivation, without which i would still be in the same spot. Cheers!

A Reader Asks, 'How Do I Part with Grandmother's China?'





A GON Reader Asks

Hi Maria, I'm a fellow neighbor...I live in Dodge County, WI! I am a clutter phobe, all my family knows it...but what I am having trouble departing with is two sets of my grandmother's china. It is all neatly in three bins, but taking up significant shelf space. I LOVE empty shelf space...and decided to part with the china because it's not being used. I thought of using a set for my family, but one set is silver lined and I fear my kids would put those pieces in the microwave! I'm a minimalist, so displaying the china is out. Where can I get rid of these sets and earn some nice cash?

Jennifer Siebenlist, Wisconsin

Maria Gracia Responds

Jennifer,

Hi neighbor! It's not always easy to sell good quality china for much profit nowadays. However, here are a few options to give your grandmother's china a new home...and maybe earn a little too:

1) Facebook. I'm not talking about Facebook Marketplace, although you can give that a whirl. I'm talking about simply taking a photo of the china sets and asking your friends (or extended family members) if they'd like it, along with the price tag. This may not earn you top dollar, but at least you'll know the china is safe and sound with someone you know.

2) Sell to tableware dealers. Google the 'International Association of Dinnerware Matchers' and try to sell your china to one of their members who resell china. This is probably your best bet for the highest amount of income if they can use what you have...and if what you have is of value.

3) Sell on eBay, an antiques store, or to a consignment shop. Again, not the easiest way to earn top dollar, but you may grab someone's attention who is interested in what you have. Research closed listings to see the going rate for your particular brand and style of china.

By the way, if you end up selling on eBay, Craigslist, or such, and you're having trouble selling the entire set, try selling individual pieces. There may be folks out there who will pay top dollar to replace a piece in their 'matching' set that has been broken or has gone missing. Hope this helps a bit. Maria
