How Was My Week?:

This past week, I went to a friend’s estate sale on Monday to see if she had anything left. After the weekend, she did, so I brought home some more goodies for my craft room. I don’t need anything else or have room for anything else in my craft room, so I am doing my best not to purchase more items but to try and create without purchasing. I even set up a little calendar to record projects I have been working on. I did use an Amazon gift card to purchase sublimation blanks, but I can’t use the new printer without sublimation blanks, so I don’t see that as contributing to the problem I have with buying stuff like stamps, stencils, dies, and paper. I swear I am trying to do the same with my book reading this year, not buying and reading what I have. Things publishers send to me don’t count as they are sent free. Does anyone else have the same issue in their life purchasing rather than using what you have any tips?
