I started papercrafting back in my early 30s. (now am 69) I have a LOT of stuff!!! Not only that, when I took up rubber stamping I was already doing crochet, plastic canvas, counted cross stitch etc so I ALREADY had a houseful of stuff so when I started buying stamps (OY) It got out of hand but like you said, I will do it some day. Well in the past couple of years I have found it easier to destash and I am liking not having so much. I used to have "I need it all" syndrome. If I bought a stamp pad, I NEEDED all the colors, if I bought a marker, I needed ALL the colors... I recently picked out over half of my embossing folders that I didnt use, about half of the punches that I didnt use. about half of the stamps that I got, used a couple times and then they sat on the shelf, and a bunch of other things and i got rid of all of that and losing that 500 pounds of stuff (LOL) made me feel so GOOD! I dont regret getting rid of any of it! In fact I really need to go through and get rid of more but that is a project for another day! I put this in here to encourage all the people who want to get rid of a lot of stuff, just do it! I am a visual person, If I dont see something, I dont have it so I just craft with the stuff I see in my craft room now and it is so freeing!

I used to own a rubber stamp company and ran the business from my home. My house burned 11 years ago destroying the original artwork and computers, but I still have a lot of rubber stamps. Beause I lost all my personal property, I've replaced a lot of what I lost. I also now have a new craft hoard that rivals the pre-fire accumulation. (Sigh.)

I can totally understand your response! It must have been so difficult to lose everything like that! It makes me think of our parents or grandparents who lived through so much scarcity in the war years that they couldn’t dispose of anything, because they had such a deep appreciation for everything.

Probably my biggest over all regret is all the money I spent on cute stamp and die sets. Now that I've been making cards a little while, anything I buy has to be something I can expand on, be motivated to use over and over and in different ways. It has to be versatile. Great video!

What a great video. My regret was a subscription and the many dies I have purchased and never used. I have given a lot of my stuff to a friend’s autistic niece who likes to make cards. That did help relieve the guilt of my unnecessary spending. This year my goal also is to not purchase craft supplies. Use what I have.

Sometimes when there's a challenge, such as the monthly paper clip challenge, I challene myself to flip through my stamps, and the first stamp that matches that theme, I'll create with it. It's interesting.

Thanks for sharing, Lolly. I regret buying tons of printables for junk journaling. I find because of the inexpensive prices, I impulse buy way too many. Printable ephemera is fine, but I learned to late that I just don’t like most of them. But that’s just me. If you love yours, then I’m pleased for you.

I don't buy much because I have a very low fixed income, but one regret is the foiling machine that hubby bought for me when it first came out. He asked before getting it for me, and I thought I wanted it but I only played with it once or twice. Just not my thing. Other than that, I don't have any regrets.

I regret trying several types of die cutting machines. I was lucky to sell some I didn’t like. Ironically enough, I now only use manual die cutting machines. Also, I bought a Cricut and hated their design space and never used it. I sold that too!

I have the same issue with Cricut. They make great machines but can't get their software up to speed. I still prefer die cutting machines over digital cutting machines, too. They create a nice, crisp, clean edge.

It's best if we can find a local scrapbook store that teaches classes using the machines. For some people, the Cricut software is prohibitive, but the other brands' software is easier to understand. It's all about how your mind thinks and reasons.

I have been crafting for over 60years. In May, I had to clean up my craft room, since we were getting new windows and had to be able to get to the window😳. As a result I gave away over 50 large boxes of craft supplies to fellow crafters and had a free garage sale. It was so uplifting to give away supplies to folks who are enthusiastic about crafting. I don’t regret it at all, plus we got our windows and I can walk in my craft room. I have located supplies in there that I had forgotten all about.😊 The only craft supply I got rid of (years ago), that I wish that I had now was my big kick die cut machine. I would love to have it to embossed my small watercolor creations for card making. Not too bad, for all the stuff that I have let go of. I also do fine art stuff, so my supplies are abundant. I regret getting an Easy Press, as I haven’t used it much. However, I purchased Derwent watercolor pencils over 20 years ago and I finally used them last year, glad I didn’t get rid of them. I regret buying adorable fabric that I never used…but I gave it to a gal that does charity quilts, so it is getting used. I believe that when I worked full time, I craft shopped as a way to cope with my stressful job…dreaming of the day when I would have more time to create. Now that I am retired (less income), more time, I still think about buying supplies, but I try to keep the “Want Monster” in check. Thank you for this video.

]'m a hoarder. I bought dylusions paint, two sets bcuz I can't stand the thought of running out. I stocked up on them, tcw butter paste, paints in general, markers, tons of stuff like that. They dried up. You cannot stock up on stuff and not use it. Wasted lots of $....hundreds....and I have to toss it all out. My one day never came. I have lost interest in most of it. Still usable I wind up donating to goodwill bcuz I dont know anyone who wants it. I've got the gorguss girls, too. Not all of them but a few. Never used. Julie Nutting....not all but most. Used very few. I love love LOVE dyan reaveley dylusions...but I don't create like she does. I keep telling myself I will but I don't. I love it. I love her stuff. It's just not me though. I've limited my buying on that bcuz I do know what I'm more likely to use. 😢 so much....too much. You want to support these creators but you just can't every one. I begged n begged to get a die cut machine. Never used it. Now I want to, I can't find the handle! It's crazy. I'm crazy....its an addiction and some days I just hate it all. 😮 lol I am finally at a place I ask will I really use it? And I can be honest with myself. No more hoarding. 🎉

Hi Lolly! Great video! I agree with all you said! One of my regrets is buying too many planner stickers. I enjoyed buying them, but didn't think about how I would be able to use that many. I had FOMO. Fear of missing out. I will keep what I will logically use and maybe a little extra.😊 I am so thankful that I am able to not feel the need to buy what I like, but what I need and will use. For me, prayer helps immensely!

I regret a set of markers. They’re not huge, but they don’t blend well, the colors don’t look right for what they’re supposed to be and I’ve hated them since I got them, plus a few dried up in no time. I’ve bought way too many dies that I’ll probably never use because I’m a die junky. I stopped watching craft shows on HSN and a couple of KZbinrs because I found myself buying too much and crafting less than I did before I bought all the stuff.

I think one of the traps is seeing ONE CARD being made, and it's such a pretty card. We order all the stuff to make that one card, and by the time we get the items shipped to us, we've lost interest in making that card. Two years later, we don't even remember why we bought the stamps.

Oh my. I had that whole book of Gorjuss Girl stamps - all 60, plus some of the larger ones as well. I used to have a collaboration with a few others and did actually use them for that. Then, they sat and were just taking up precious space in my small craft room. I sold the whole lot last year. It was hard at first to let go, but I don't regret it. Also, I never really got into the Julie Nutting trend either. I tend to go ALL IN when I see something that I think I may enjoy, which is really not a great way to be. Most recently, I bought a hot foil machine, and also a wax seal set. I think I will enjoy the hot foiling, but I'm not 100% convinced on the wax seal. I did only buy a small amount of wax and one or two seals. That may be all I ever get. But, here I go again. lol Also, yes, the Kits. Sigh. I do like Spellbinders for exactly the reason you said - I can cancel after seeing ahead of time what it will be, or change to a different one, etc. Grab bags I learned about also - not Michael's, but bead grab bags mostly. I would rather pay to get what I need or want than a bag of stuff I may never use. Thanks for the video. :)

I hardly comment but like most crafters, I fell into impulse buying my crafting supplies several times and regret later. It is a good thing that I do not buy expensive ones. If I do not use some of them, I will pass them on. One man's junk is another man's treasure. I do keep some of them for my enjoyment too. If I know my crafting pals well, I will ask if they have spare ones of a certain item that I need and vice versa. In this way, we don't have to order online as it comes in bulk at times and is just too much to use it all.

Being so new to crafting, I “thought” I knew what I’d be using, but even though the dollar store items I bought were “individually” inexpensive to purchase, I bought way too many and they are now just taking up valuable space, making it harder to focus on the few items I might want to use. 😂😂 Also, I bought a few digital kits that I still super love, but my model of printer goes through ink really fast and at $80 for a new cartridge, they turned out to be more costly than buying 12 x 12 printed paper pads.

I love making journals or notebooks. I also love my alcohol markers. I bought less expensive ones from AC Moore. My regret is a couple WeR Memory keeper boards. Have never used one for an explosion box at all.

I used my explosion board one, and it's such a cute project, but it's also a lot of work!

I waited forever to get a cinch - bought a zutter bind it all that I used once or twice - bought a mini cinch on sale and LOVE IT. Need to get rid of the bind it all.

Ouch! I feel bad when someone buys a craft machine and leaves it in the box. Were you hesitant to try to use it, or you just never found the need?

I regret buying tsukinekos gluepad. I have never used it . I thought they would be great for stamping sentiment and foiling them but somehow I never dare. 😊-

I bought that pad as well, because the salesperson told me that I could dip ephemera into it and glue it to my page. That's not how it works. It is supposedly for adding glitter to a piece. I got rid of it.

When you use these products, you don’t give yourself a chance to create. All the creativity had been done by the original artist. I don’t but any cricut stuff or Tim Holt stuff. It’s appealing, but not my vibe.

@LollyPalooza 6 ай бұрын
I do use some similar products, but it's the amount of the purchases that prohibits the full use of them. I can create with a new stamp set or die set every other month, but not every week.

Haha! I WANT to be creative - it’s just more difficult for some of us than others and perhaps that’s the reason we “think” we need so many products. You’re so blessed to be able to create without all the props! I really want someone to teach us how to get creative without all the super cute stuff, but the cute stuff is always demoed, so it makes some of us (me) think that’s how to be creative. I’m so grateful for this video, because it’s making me realize that all the toys might NOT be essential to crafting and I’m glad I’m finding it out now, before I make a lot of unnecessary purchases!
