Major Purge goin on here.

Older pattern paper that I know I'll NEVER use! Also some fibers, unfinished chipboard and a whole bag of old CM stuff that my daughter in law found for me. Her thoughts were good but it's a lot of older stuff from a rep that I'll never use.

I think it's time to finally say goodbye to the eyelets. Shows you how long I've been scrapping. I did use them occasionally when I was running ribbon through a page as a border but that was years ago.

Ribbons and chipboard! I have done a big purge of both, but we are cleaning out the garage and I keep coming across some I packed "for later," and I donated those to the thrift store, too!

I have two bins full off things to which I have said goodbye. Lots of patterned paper, stickers, albums, punches -- things that I haven't used, no longer like, or just plain never needed in the first place.

I'm going to try to sell first and then donate everything that's left.

All the above...

I filled a couple of boxes back in April with stamps, patterned paper, stickers, ribbon and etc. They were donated to a nursing home and to a special needs classroom that makes cards for a fundraiser. I still have so much more to go I just have to find the time to do it.

I have a hard time letting go of older product... I think "what if I need it some day?". But recently I went through my older product and gave a giant box to a friend's daughter. She loved it! And I got rid of a bunch of older epoxy/stickers/ribbons/fibers/paper that I will never use.

I have well over a decade of paper to get rid of. Remember ProvoCraft Slabs? I will say, they were AMAZING for me at the time, so much paper for such a good price (before the big boom when there weren't stacks and pads and stuff)... and I used the ever-loving heck out of them. But there were SO many pages I didn't use, especially from Slab IV and especially pink and purple (3 boys here)... that I've been holding on to for over 10 years! Why?

Probably ribbon, brads and some older stamp pads I rarely use - I just need to get around to going through it. I usually go through a few things and then get bored with it and decide to craft instead

I intend to finally donate the box sitting behind the door in the walk-in-closet. It's been collecting supplies I'll never use from collection packs bought at Tuesday Morning over the past couple of years - select patterned papers, bulky/layered/themed embellishments, glitter Thickers, etc. Often I just liked the patterned paper, my weakness, but it was still less expensive to purchase the entire collection pack at TM than the papers by the sheet at my LSS (or the collection was never or no longer available at the LSS/big box stores).
