I actually spent somewhere around $____ (okay I can't actually fill that in, my husband might see it) on a recent tag swap. One tag, and I already had lots of stuff! Ha ha. I think I am crazy! And so do my kids! But it is fun, clutter does need organized, used, and or reduced! So good for you! I also recently came across about 25 vintage looking green glass mini bottles with cork I bought one year. Was gonna make some kinda bath oil or something. I gave them to goodwill! Then regretted it. We are funny little hoarders.. I mean collectors!!<br />Blessings,<br />SusieLittle Susie Home Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17887516404693518321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634971010185114820.post-46752296182958708322011-11-29T20:03:06.300-07:002011-11-29T20:03:06.300-07:00I love your little collections!

I am currently going through my craft area and pitching unnecessary things. It is very doable. If I haven't done it in a year chances are I won't unless it is a vintage goodie then I re-evaluate. I adore your amazing style and eye. Hoard on...that is what my husband tells me!

That's my main complaint about my hoarding. That and the fact that I'm now stacking bins along the walls in the wrong rooms.<br />I love all your decorations! I used to have a table like your red and white one, but my husband was using it as a saw horse and/or work table and I didn't know it. It fell apart.:-( <br />KathyKathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00891260065592126944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634971010185114820.post-88406067100944803462011-11-29T14:05:32.646-07:002011-11-29T14:05:32.646-07:00Hello "sister hoarder" :) what else can...Hello "sister hoarder" :) what else can I say!!??

I just keep adding shelves; I'm particularly fond of those big stainless steel ones on rollers, then I can rat through the stuff occasionally with ease ! One of the few advantages of living alone I guess :)Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09185369324608507192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634971010185114820.post-41601880042805418022011-11-29T10:58:18.177-07:002011-11-29T10:58:18.177-07:00Hi Sandy,

I never hoard food or store up much at all so one side has sparse food stuff along with Christmas storage, and Bob's tool storage. I don't know why anymore than you know why you like to have a lot of one thing, I only want a few of that item. It makes me very uncomfortable to have a lot of stashed things and I will reduce them from time to time like you are doing. I just love what you do with your decorating there in the kitchen and house in general you have a real touch for it. I don't I have to kind of struggle with it. Take Care my friend.
