This just doesn't apply to jewelry. Do you have a set of china, crystal or sterling that's been in the family? Take it out and use it for a holiday dinner. Yes, of course, everyone should be very careful with it. But, you should use it. I believe that our antiques and beautiful possessions lose some of their spirit if they're not used. We do want to treat them with respect, but what good are they if we don't see them?
Not only are you bringing some style to your everyday life, but it's an excellent way to remember the people we loved and the time we spent with them.
