Too much kimono stuff: my collection

Can you have too many kimono and accessories? Maybe- especially if you realize some pieces you haven't even worn yet. (Just waiting for the perfect TPO...just sayin').

Undergarments and underpinnings
2 cotton hadajuban tops, 2 susyoke
1 kimono bra, 2 obi ita, 2 obi makura, 1 korin belt, 2 date jime (one silk, one velcro), 1 obidomegane, and a bunch of himo, 4 eri shin (2 are mesh); 9 juban (1 men's, 2 sample fabric, 2 for furisode)

Accessories
14 obiage (1 is ro), 27 obijime, 4 summer obijime, 4 date eri, 5 silk han eri, bunches of homemade cotton han eri;
4 kimono purses, 2 kinchaku, 1 basket kinchaku,
2 pair plain white tabi, 9 pair colored casual tabi sox


Footwear
8 pair zori, 6 pair geta

Outerwear
6 haori, 1 ama coat, 2 douchugi, 1 michiyuki




Kimono: summer
8 yukata,  2 ro kimono, 1 hitoe summer-weight wool


Kimono: other seasons
1 hitoe wool,  10 awase komon, 1 houmongi, 1 odori kimono, 2 iromuji, 1 kurotomosode


Misc. 
1 adon bakama (ladies undivided hakama)



Obi
16 hanhaba obi (includes 5 hakata), 3 fukuro obi (2 hitoe, 1 formal awase),  2 summer obi, 3 tsuke obi, 8 nagoya obi, 2 chuya obi, 2 heko obi (1 is for a boy), 2 maru obi (1 girl's obi)



If I have all of this, what am I looking for? Mainly casual summer kimono and accessories: ro obiage, ro obi, ro and sha kimono, etc. I seem to wear the warm-weather items more and more. I'm also still looking for an obi for the pink birch-tree houmongi. I'm also thinking of selling or gifting some items I do not wear much.
Cheers,
