       I have a bunch of papers most especially from kits that after I
       subscribed I thought - what was I thinking. lol!!! I have a TON
       of old basic grey. I'm trying to get my stash of papers down to
       the "basket" that I use to flip through. I also keep scraps in a
       separate basket to flip through instead of having them divided
       up in files by mfg. I like the system - I just want to get all
       the papers in one spot.
       What do you do with papers you want to purge? I don't know of
       anyone I can "donate" them to.

       Lynn just send that Basic Grey my way......
       I have been keeping most of mine and using it because I haven't
       been able to buy much. I sometimes pass it to relatives that
       scrap....But I love paper and I just have a hard time letting it
       go lol....

       I keep just about all my papers, unless they are a big floral or
       a big design.  Those I donate when my church has a crop or give
       to one of my daughters.

       I give them to those who want them.  I need to do my yearly
       purge.
       I love your idea of putting them in a basket Lynn, my system
       does not work, I never use my scraps.

       keep whole sheets until I use them.
       scraps have to be at least 2 inches square or I toss them under
       the label that they are TOO SMALL to do anything with.
       lynn,
       as a teacher, I know schools always need paper for art and craft
       corners in the classroom.
       Donate to an elementary school. And if you donate A LOT, it's
       tax deductible.
       I cleaned out my stash about 4 years ago cuz it was
       overwhelming. I took everything to my neighborhood school and
       asked if they wanted any of it.
       they took every last dern button and bobbin I brought up. Then
       they sent me a statement thanking me and sent me a donation slip
       to use for tax purposes.

       TOO long! Mainly because I use them to make a card set for my
       grandmother for Cmas every year (20 cards...she has a million
       grands and great grands. ). I also used a lot of stash on my
       niece's album this last time.
       I STILL have WAY too many. :-P
