What have you ....or do you - accumulate?

Luckylu · 61-69, F
Art supplies, if it exists and can be used in art, I probably have it.

Knitting needles, books, journals, rocks. We went to a fossil dig and came back with two bags full of fossils.
@Luckylu bet you have an interesting home full of intriguing things 😊
Luckylu · 61-69, F
@OogieBoogie That depends on what you consider intriguing.😁

To me it is just a mess. lol

Dust 😂

Fairy dust ✨

I have loads of art and craft, pearls, crystals, wire etc, I buy way more than I use. I’m like a magpie 😆
@Fairydust Fairydust Magpie sounds like a legit hippy name 😂

It suits you 🤗

Like many guys, and probably some women, I have a rather extensive collection of tools... some I use frequently, and others that were more specialized, are not often used tools that have accumulated over the years when I was working on a special project.

Other things have accumulated for one reason or another. Things like survival items/food and first aid supplies because I live in an earthquake zone. Then there are candle-making supplies... way too much because I bought a bunch thinking I might like to make them and sell them on Etsy.

Then there is stuff, one-off items that were bought for this or that reason and I should have gotten rid of them years ago. Someday I will... or not.

@OogieBoogie It's easier than making candles, but the thing is, how much soap can a person use?
@Ontheroad is it?
true true ....but it makes nice scented bars to put in ones wardrobe 🤗
Ontheroad · M
@OogieBoogie It is quite easy https://www.candlescience.com/soap-making-supplies/

I use wax melts to keep things smelling nice around the house... I just use a bit more of the scent oil than I would for candles, and sit them around.

I had a massive wine cellar once

I thought that I was getting to be a bit ridiculous

So, I drank it all
Took me close to a decade
Ferric67 · M
@BizSuitStacy I have 1 from my cellar
1976 Rothschild
@Ferric67 was it worth it drink it ...or do you think should you have kept it?

@OogieBoogie if I bought apple, Microsoft, facebook, nvidia, Tesla and Amazon stock instead....I just might be a billionaire today

@Fungirlmmm I've been doing that, too.
Stress. Graduate student, full time educator with two leadership postings. Partner left after the holidays to the other end of the globe. Nothing but stress all round.
@DrScissorhands geez, that sounds like a really crappy deal, I hope karma makes up for it soon

Starcrossed · 41-45, F
@OogieBoogie yes some crystals, polished and raw minerals, and regular ol' raw ones off the ground or even in the gravel that I find unique or vibe with.
@Starcrossed I have a few types that I wear as jewellery .
But yeah, like you I sometimes find ones on walks that just seem to grab my attention and say 'take me home, I'm special 🤗'
Starcrossed · 41-45, F
@OogieBoogie those are the best ones.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
Art supplies - not anymore but I don't really use those already accumulated and they are just getting older and older every year
Firm cardboard boxes - you just never know when you'll need to elevate something (a computer screen for example)
Pillowcases
Various stuff on my computer - digital books, pictures for inspiration...
@CrazyMusicLover omg....I just threw out so much cardboard and paper.
I get this completely. If ya needed it .....I had it - or the shit to make it with 😂

Thank fuck we were never flatmates 😂.... we'd have been wall to wall craft hoarders .

@Ferric67 something like that
RubySoo · 56-60, F
Various things over the years. I used to collect pot pigs. They took over the house for a while, but i got rid of most during the house move 17 years ago and just kept the nicer ones which are confined to two small shelves in the kitchen.
Its crap for the garden these days, fairies, mushrooms, dragons...cant help myself.
On a slightly more practical note, craft supplies...bits of card, materials, ribbons that 'i might use one day......'
And, of course....what everyone knows me for....boots, dozens and dozens if pairs of boots....
@RubySoo 😂. You and your boots😏

You better never move anywhere tropical - you'll go thru withdrawal from them 😅

Books. I donate boxes of books to the library and other places, but my shelves are still overflowing.
Lately, dissapointments. 😮‍💨
@mindstruggle aw, that's no good 🫤
@OogieBoogie
I really do hope things will improve and this is all worth it.
@mindstruggle I'm sure it will.🤗
Life is a cycle ....sometimes it's going g up ...sometimes it's coming down ....🤷
Embarrassing moments and other troublesome thoughts to keep me awake at night.
@PatKirby wow....that is [b]truly [/b] organized!
I'm impressed .

I can't seem to get mine outta my wallet before they become so faded they are useless 😂
PatKirby · M
@OogieBoogie

I fold 'em and put 'em between two $100 bills in my wallet. Benjamin seems to take good care of them.
@PatKirby ahhh.....there's my problem -
I need hundred dollar bills 😂
KiwiBird · 36-40, F
Minimalist....
Decluttered my home.....
@KiwiBird Nice.
I'm attempting to do that .
It's not easy ....I need to find everything a new home to get rid of it .
I'm sure it's some deep rooted psychological thingy 😅

I love that look so much 🤗
