What do you do when you go down to the basement and discover a box filled with family papers that has been down there for years? That's the situation Amy found herself in a few weeks ago.

Hear how Amy and her daughter, Rachel, sorted through this treasure and worked to sort and preserve it.

In this episode, you'll learn:

What to watch out for (the icky stuff that can destroy papers and photos)
Why working with white cotton gloves isn't always the best thing to do
How to sort the material as you go
