Haha, sounds like an idea! I have done this once, in order to throw everything out with what I did not feel a "spark" when wearing, which were basically all my non silver/wg/platinum pieces and everything with colored stones. Very enlightening and good riddance of many pieces I had not worn in ages.
Were colored stones trending in the early 2000s? I swear, I also found a ton that I used to adore, but now I just want diamonds!
