Downsizing ornaments collection???

Does anyone here have a "problem" with Christmas decorations in general, ornaments (Hallmark) in particular?

I've been actively decluttering and downsizing my "things." Since trying decorate for Christmas this year, I've been overwhelmed about the space this 30-year-colletion of "Christmas" takes up.

I've decided two totes of Christmas decor is e-n-o-u-g-h. That leaves me with a daunting task of thinning out boxes and boxes.

What would you do? Donate them to...who? Try selling them on Craig's list? Ebay? (But, where to find time to photo, list, sell, package and track them?)

I've dedicated one hour a day to "sorting" and thinning the "Christmas stack" in the basement. I have a folding table set up with two "keep" totes under it, along with a trash bag, and a box to hold the items I'm not keeping.

I'm going to offer my young neighbor "first refusal" at them, but I don't want my clutter becoming her clutter.

Ideas?
