I have enough little artsy craftsy things my 3 children made to fill a museum. Every time I pick one up and think about it, I can't throw it away. They'll have to do that some day.
Parts off of my "fun" car. Not routine maintenance parts like old oil filters and spark plugs, but every single original factory part ever removed during various upgrades and modifications over the years are all in my garage and basement. I'll never use them but there they are.
Those plugs Cynth mentioned, I have way too many of those, too.
School books. Not every single one, but for some reason I still have a large box full of certain text and note books from over 40 years ago that I can't throw away.
Certain magazines, mostly car and astronomy related. I have several large boxes full that I'll only look at again if I have to move the boxes; then I browse through them and wonder why I'm keeping them, then put that back in storage.
Certain pieces of wood. Like leftover hunks of 2X4's, pieces of boards, etc. I have so many I could almost build a house from scraps. But I can't throw away a good hunk of wood.
