Together we begin plucking our way through with the goal of eliminating. 
So, this is how the conversation goes......
Hubbie, "You you want this wooden barrel plug?"
Me, "Of course I have a box for those."
Hubbie, "How about this 6" piece of chain."
Me, "Yep, save it."
Hubbie, " What would you like me to do with these broken shells?"
Me, "Pass them over here, I have a bin for those."
And so it goes.
Everything placed into a keeper bin and nothing goes into the large plastic bin that goes to the curb the next morning! What most families in their right mind toss and pass on, we save.
Every little bit of anything gets put into it's proper bin.
Why you may ask? Because everything can become something!
See all the cool and colorful junk!
In a normal household this great stuff might have been tossed!
Now you know why I CAN'T throw it away!
The sad plight of a household with two crafters and artists.

Oh, man...I'm the saver around here. I can't throw away ANYTHING, cause I know too well the potential it has! lol
Poor dh thinks I am nuts, and his family thinks it even more. I am always having to rescue stuff, and they are always trying to sneak stuff to the dump. :p
Oh.. I had so much fun looking through your blog~! So many inspiring things to take in!
Well, that sounded like a successful event, looking at those neatly stacked bins. It is impossible for artists to throw things away because we enjoy everything and always think it can be recreating into something else. If you have time, stop by my post today because there is a thank you for you. Karen
