Gosh ladies, we could run our own shop with all the stuff we no longer use - sometimes it really is like Dax says in that you just don't 'Gel' with something, and in another Mums hands it probably be ace purchase!

It would be a very boring world if we all liked the same Dax. Not only that, but C & C/Hochy/etc wouldn't be able to flog so many different items that do roughly the same thing. All those pens, ink pads, pencils, sprays, etc. Then there are the dies, must be running into millions of those.
I have squillions of rubber stamps. Eight boxes full, plus lots that are still without a home. Some foam backed ones I bought from QVC years ago live in a drawer, and I have a couple of folders I bought from Joanna Sheen half a lifetime ago with quite a lot of stamps in them. Loads have gone down to the fluffit/woofit shop.
There are six slightly longer than A4 drawers in my filing cabinet thingie full of dies. Some that I no longer cared for went down to the fluffit/woofits a year or two back as well. Maybe when the shop opens again I ought to have another sort out. No good doing it yet as I know I would have second thoughts . That happened with some of the books, so no point tempting fate for a while.

I bought some dies a couple of months back, haven’t used them yet. Decided to use them today but can’t find them anywhere! Despite buying the new storage drawers & shelves, everything is still in a right mess.

Well that makes two of us then chuck. It has become a standing joke at Walters Towers that tomorrow I will find what I was looking for today.

Just remembered something else I found: I deliberately bought two sets of the same foliage dies, so that I can cut out twice as much in one go. Today I found that I already had a set - so now I have three!

But, but, but it is true. I know, I am an expert. It happens so often it must be true. Especially as I know exactly where said item should be, and will be when it wishes to be found again. My mum always used to say that things will turn up when they are hungry. I usually find it is when I have driven myself dizzy. Naughty little beggars, especially that dratted chart and its destructions. Turned out I didn't even need it as by the time it turned up I had done my own thing.
Which reminds me, I am s'posed to be looking for the destructions on YouTube for the Colonial Knot. The ones I have in various books do not make sense, but if I see how it is done in action, then I should be able to see if I am doing what I think the destructions mean. If not, then I will carry on doing whatever it is my way. :)
