Comments on: 5 Steps to Smarter, More Intentional Spending on Your Hobby https://www.simplescrapper.com/2015/11/smarter-spending/ Scrapbook Ideas Thu, 03 Dec 2015 22:40:52 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.2 By: Francine https://www.simplescrapper.com/2015/11/smarter-spending/#comment-242063 Sun, 29 Nov 2015 15:46:37 +0000 http://www.simplescrapper.com/?p=39366#comment-242063 Late last month I realized that I’m not overly fond of “Mega Flake”, a foil product in various mixes of colors. I used it to make one birthday card. It required that I put a glue on a stamp, stamp the glue off onto a blank card and then sprinkle the foil pieces all over the card. Made sure the loose pieces were sticking to the glue and then used the “scrunchy” , a wide mesh of thin plastic, to rub the extra off. I’ll admit it looked nice when I was done but……

That foil flies all OVER THE PLACE. I was wearing it, not only on my clothes but also on my skin. My craft mat STILL has little pieces of colorful foil bits.

So I won’t be using that product again. I may be a clutter bug but I don’t appreciate gluey messes.

Now I have to decide whether I’m going to give the jars (I have at least 6 jars, all different mixes) to our local thrift store or somehow advertise locally or just throw them out (empty them into the trash and then reuse the jars.)
