I have too many..........JUNK DRAWERS

MeganS · 06-21-2008, 08:27 PM

Purses!!! I only carry ONE purse EVER and yet I have ENDLESS amounts. I will find a purse and say "I don't even remember GETTING this one!"

Scarves lol. I have a crap load of scarves. Every time I turn around, there's a scarf staring at me. Yet, when it gets chilly, there is never a scarf around when I need it!

Movies. I have movies from...a very long time ago. it's insane. And BOOKS!! My Mom just recently found The Outsider's book she got when she was in Jr. High. Neither of us throws away books.

Sharpies. But that's not a hoard, that's a collection lol. I love Sharpies (Yes, I am well aware that I am bizzare).

Playbills. It started out as a collection, but it's slightly...crazy. I have playbills from shows I've never SEEN - MULTIPLE ones from shows I've never seen. I'm always telling myself that I have the ones I need hanging up and I can just get rid of the other ones, but I just don't have the heart to do it.

Playbill= program for a Broadway show.

LOL on the too many junk drawers! Sounds too familiar

My list?
--hair bands
--nail clippers...uh, why??
--plates (mosaic person here)
--cards!

I think I have every card or letter anyone has ever given me! lol I just can't seem to throw them away. Oh, and don't even start on the ones with photos. I still have the Christmas card exchange ones!

aww Erin lol I'm not laughing at you.

Playbills are little book type things that you get when you go to see a show. They have the information about the cast, crew, creatives, and most have a bit of info about the show itself. They also usually have interviews with actors from other shows, or stories about another professional in the business as well as any sponsors.

I attached a picture of a few of mine so you can see what they look like.

Megan, I know a young lady who decorated one wall in her room with those...sort of a combo of decoupage and wallpaper. It looks cool! But it's just one accent wall, not the whole room.

That is the coolest idea EVER! Oh my gosh I love that! How creative. My room is very...Broadway haha...and I don't have any room left on my walls. But if I did oh my gosh I would SOO be doing that!

Judy in Waco · 06-21-2008, 10:59 PM

It looks really cool. The decoupage part gave me an idea. Do you ever see old theatre trunks? What about decoupaging one of those with your playbills?

Anyway, I love playbills too, and I've never even seen a Broadway show! lol

Catrina · 06-22-2008, 11:33 AM

too much..

of everything!!!

except for yorkies.. i only have one :-)

teri88 · 06-23-2008, 07:03 AM

I threw out enough stuff to fill 2 dumpsters when we moved. Megan is the family pack rat and it caused her physical pain to see me throw out broken, ripped up back packs from 1st or 2nd grade! Even after all of that we had a garage full of stuff after we moved. So, we had a garage sale a couple of weeks ago. (I had it when Megan was away so she couldn't see what we sold!)

I have too many pictures. I mean, do I really need 8 or 9 copies of the same shot? Remember when you'd take the kids to Sears for portraits and they'd give you 40 different copies of the same pose? I'm slowly going through all of those and tossing them. I literally have boxes and boxes of pictures, some of them are of people I don't even know who they are!

BamaFan121s · 06-23-2008, 07:15 AM

There's more!

I also discovered this weekend about 50 packets of Taco Bell sauce stuck in one of the drawers. That's alot of Tacos!

Maybe we can do a trade! I'll send you some candles/candle holders if you send me a lighter or two. Why? Because I tried to light some of my candles and couldn't find a lighter in the whole d*mn house! Go figure..

Betty'sMom · 06-23-2008, 06:13 PM

Pizza Hut, Papa John's, Domino's...I never get pizza! And I live in the country, so they don't deliver.
