Wedding gifts that you haven't used
I saw this post on another board and it was a fun read. Do you have items that you registered for that you have never used? What about gifts that you didn't register for but got anyway and don't use?
What gift do you use the most?

A Parachute in an Oak Tree: A World of Love
Oh man, you're gonna make me really use my brain and think back that far?! Thankfully, after 9 years of marriage, most of the stuff we didn't register for/use we got rid of long ago.
Didn't register for any mixing bowls because I owned some and DH owned some, but we got I think 6 or 7 sets. It was ridic.
I think we use/used everything that we registered for. We didn't go crazy with the registry.
Most used: pans, cups, and iced tea maker. We've already replaced a lot of the stuff we originally registered for... silverware, sheets, towels, etc..
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!
T-TTC since Dec 2008. PCOS/nonexistant cycles(anovulation) and endo. HSG in '10 revealed both tubes blocked. Lap surgery in Dec '10 to correct. Failed Clomid/IUI and injectable(Bravelle)/IUI cycles so far.
I have a set of pots and pans I've yet to use, but I'll start using them when we remodel our kitchen. My uncle ended up buying us a set we didn't register for, so we've been using that set for the last three years.
We got a king shortly after our wedding, so our guests who use our queen size bed sleep in REALLY nice sheets. I don't want to pay to get a really nice king set, but I should.
I guess that's what we don't use personally, queen size sheets.

Isn't this an oven? Do you not use your oven?
Seriously, what is a brie baker? I love me some brie, baked, as grilled cheese, in apps, desserts, etc... But I can't see a reason for a tool dedicated to it specifically.
Didn't register for and don't use - ugly night shirt and shorts, picture frame, weird candles and outdoor things
Use the most - kitchen tools, towels, bedding

BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
Registered for but haven't used :Espresso Pot, Mandolin slicer, Matching set of glasses (we prefer to use pint glasses stolen from bars),
Received but did not register for: Pasta maker attachments for KitchenAid. My MIL bought it for us, and she knows I like to cook, but I'm way too lazy for this. An engraved picture frame with crystals on it. Obviously we can't re-gift this because it has our name and wedding date on it, but its really just nms.
Use the most - pots & pans, dishes, sheets

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
