purge baby purge

[HeatherPrins]

I have been cleaning out my scrap space and have gotten rid of 4 boxes of stuff!! I am donating them to a low income woman's group, some to friends, and some to sell. Man it is awesome to get rid of a bunch of stuff I won't use!!

Way to go!! After going digi I saved my paper supplies for one year then unloaded all of it.

Same here. It took me about 2 years to be willing to part with it. Put it on Craig's List and donated the rest to a rubber stamp store that distributes those kind of supplies to schools, nursing homes, etc. Great way to lose 100 pounds.

Good for you, Heather!

I purged my knitting supplies, quilting supplies and painting supplies. Seems I only want to digiscrap these days.

I still have almost all of my rubber stamps and inks for card making. I could start whittling away at those and just save some favorites because I occasionally I like to make hybrid greeting cards. The longer I go without using them, the easier it is to part with them.

Good girl...you 'look' a lot lighter!

My local scrapbooking store has a garage sale twice a year which has come in very handy.

I keep my quilting supplies and take them out every three months determined to finish my UFO's, but...they are still there. One day.

Oh no, I have to keep all my yarn, every once in a while I pick it up and knit for a while I still have all my paper stuff, but I think it's mostly because I am too lazy to go through it and sort it

I really need to purge my stuff - but I have a lot so I keep putting it off. Maybe this will be motivation to get me started

I'm proud of you Heather! I just can't quiet make this decision right now.

Actually, I most definitely cannot make this decision . . . like Katie, Carol & Michele . . . I know . KNOW . know that someday I will go back to them. I have been thinking of taking some of my old yarn to a women's group at our church . . . but the rest of my krafty life is safe form purging!
