Lost Treasures

Since the weather has been so wintery lately, I've been down in the basement going through boxes and bins and piles of stuff. Sorting, tossing, organizing, and finding things I never thought I'd see again. We've moved three times in the last four years, so I'd packed away stuff that I didn't think I'd need, and it's stayed in boxes and bins for all that time. The problem was, since it was packed away and it was hard to find, when I needed some wrapping paper, I'd just go down and buy some more. Much easier than trying to find it. I ended up with a huge box of gift bags and tissue paper. I'm talking 10 year supply.Same with quilt batting.Sorting and sifting.

I've found little treasures from my childhood.And treasures from the more recent past. Lots of stuff for future projects.

I've still got a lot more to do. I've got to get this cleared out so the mister can start working on the playroom. Looks like this spring we'll be having one gigantic garage sale.
