Craft hoarding, collecting, saving and USING? Are you kidding?!
Do you realize how much money the craft industries are making off of us? Five years ago none of the diy'ers had craft rooms. When I made mine, commonly referred to as my "playroom", I was on the cutting edge and the envy of many. I couldn't even find a book on how to organize it. Now it's a race for all of us to see who can have the biggest most elaborate collection of supplies. Believe me, I have been working on it. How can you stop? Everyone wants to have their own superstore in their own house. Are you one of these people? How many lifetimes will it take you to use your supplies? Would you rather save your supplies than use them? Be honest here, would you?
I just look at the pictures

Overstock
Okay, I buy what I think I need. I sort through it and pick out what I have to have. You know what I mean. Next I try to fix up goodies to sell on Ebay and Etsy. This always takes longer than I expect. Well, actually I know it will take longer, but hey we are supposed to have goals, even if we don't meet them.
Fetching new data from eBay now... please stand by
