What do you do with costume jewelry that you want to get rid of?

It seems a shame to just throw it out-- but, it's not really worth anything. Too much to deal with trying to selling on ebay or something like that.

I donate it. I put it in little zip locks with the big bags I bring to good will.

I do the same with shoes that are in decent shape.

good idea. We have a bunch of other stuff that we can bring over there too. And it's a tax deduction!!

If none of my sisters of friends want it, I'll donate it to the local thrift store. Sometimes, depending on what it is, I give it to my nieces to add to their dress up collection.

If you have a friend who's into jewerly making, maybe they can do something with it- reuse the chains and beads, etc. Otherwise I would dontate it.

I took a bunch of my Dh's mother's stuff to an antique type store where we used to live and he gave me a decent lump sum for the lot...

I'd donate it or try a consignment shop. I found one that has been selling tons of stuff for me.

Some of it I keep (like bracelets & necklaces) for when my friends daughters or my nieces come over to play with and I donate the rest of it.

a thrift shop or even a nursing home. Many patients are long term and don't have much.
