Shopping Our Stash Weekly challenge

There's a new site over at Shopping Our Stash Weekly challenge that I'm anxious to get involved in. You are challenged to use stuff in your stash - no going out and buying something new. I like this because I'm trying to put myself on a scrap diet :P

But then my sister calls and invites me to Flower Factory! But I only spent $3 - 2 pieces of cardstock and 2 spools of ribbon. And then there's the ribbon I just got on sale from Stampin Up...stop, stop finding those great deals. I need use my stuff.


Anyway, the first challenge, which really isn't a challenge, is to show your stash/scrap room. So here is what it looks like today. I know, it needs cleaned up. But I'm not in that mood so it stays a mess. I keep trying to use the stuff on my table before reaching for other supplies, but alas, I always seem to need something that I haven't got out!





Hop on over and take a look and get ready for some great challenges. I'll see you there (assuming I dig myself from under this mess!). Thanks for stopping by. Susan

  6. Ohhhh! I adore your baskets! They're fantastic. And about your scrap diet...umm...this is something *I* totally need to be on. Is there a 12-step plan? ;) Your space is really great, though. Love your desk and sewing machine!

    Thanks for playing along with the SOS crew! :)

  7. Thanks ladies!! I have so much stuff (to my standards!) and I need to use what I have before I start buying more. Otherwise, the new stuff sits with the old stuff and nothing gets used up.

    Maybe its a hoarding problem. Cuz I like fluff too :)
