What do you save?.

What do you save? That's a question I came across and it really made me think. As a child I used to read a weekly magazine called "Bunty" which was for little girls. On the back where paper dolls and clothes. I couldn't wait to get my comic and to sit and cut out my dolls and their outfit. I would carefully save them in an old shoe box and also use the dolls to design my own outfit. So I guess that was my first save.


As I got older I love to save plates and had loads at one point, all displayed and checked I was always hoping to find one worth lots of money.
Over the years I think I am not really one to save much but I do seem to save fabric and card and paper. I think as a crafter you did to save the silly bits of paper or card or fabric, you never know when you may need it .
Maybe these days I just save dust !!! Or extra pounds in weight that I never seem to lose.
So what do you save?

    I have such a problem tossing out old cards--so silly to save them and I never read them again...I need to find a creative way on Pinterest to save my memories without taking up a ton of room!

    Hi there! I'm visiting from Monday Mingle. I have started going through all the stuff I save and cleaning it out. But I tend to save sentimental things. Also, bits of ribbon, cards, silly things really. I really loved your paper dolls. I miss paper dolls. Now that I have a little girl, I'm always looking for things like that. I am now a new follower and would be honored if you would visit and follow me back at http://lifeofblocks.blogspot.com/ Thanks!
