This is the thread that I need. I need to pressure to stop buying and start using up my stationery. Peer pressure is good in this situation.  |

Im a washi tape ADDICT! 😠Unlike normal beings, I dont feel like using them up. It looks so nice arranged in a box..haha. Maybe its time to let them go. I also hate to use up my washi tape because what happens if I find a great use for it in the future and I don't have it?  True..haha. I participate in chaincards and I obsess over matching washi to the 'theme' of the chaincard! If I use up a roll what if I cant buy the same again? Little/weird obsessions of a stationwry hoarder I guess. 😅 |

I’m on a roll! I just finished two different sheets of return address labels this week! (One was foxes and bears, and one was nature scenery/sunsets)

Just finished a stationery pad. It was a floral pattern that I really liked. RIP.

I just killed a roll of washi tape, but I can't remember if it's the one I referenced on July 3rd.  This was an ocean wave, or "Seigaihamon" pattern - think I got this one from Muji? Even if it is the roll referenced earlier this month, I still have twenty rolls in varying amounts and patterns left. Adding: I have also killed a Muji "writing set" that was rummaging around in my paper pile - but it only had 12 sheets of A5 paper and six matching envelopes. Must have been for quick missives ... anyway, paper wasn't good but the envelopes are nice. |

Used up a sticker sheet that's been kicking around my house for a good 10 years.

Just finished two sticker sheets (butterflies and seashells) and another roll of washi tape (with turquoise glittery stars! I really liked that one!)...

I have pulled out all of my stationery, card sets and homemade envelopes and reorganized.
I may never need to buy more stationery for the rest of my life. At least I have reminded myself of everything that I own.
My goal is to use up lots of this paper before the year is out. With me luck!

At least I have reminded myself of everything that I own. My goal is to use up lots of this paper before the year is out. With me luck! I did that a while ago - I was in the process of reorganizing my little study, and I thought it would be a good idea to have all my notecards in one place instead of having them scattered all over. Boy, was I shocked to see the amount of notecard sets that I had! It was a real eye-opener! I also had a look at my writing pads and stationery sets *insert facepalm here* I'm not even talking about all the homemade and storebought envelopes... It's really an addiction. I mean, it might not be quite as harmful as drinking or smoking, but it's bad in a different way, I suppose.
I make a pledge here and now I will try to follow in your footsteps and herewith announce the same goal: I want to use up lots of paper before this year is out and NOT buy new stuff until I have made a serious dent into my stacks.

I've been trying (and failing) to do the same for the past year and a half...Perhaps I will re-commit myself to the same goal through the rest of this year.  |

I think I can fill up a 32-qt (30 L) storage container of stationery (no ink, no pens). It's a slow process, but I'm dwindling it down. |

Oh boy! I have been trying, really trying not to buy more stuff for a while now and so far I have not been successful! I think I need to commit to the pledges I made to commit to a pledge in the hope that one pledge might become pledged at some point - but it is just so tempting! |

resistance is futile! I am thinking of getting the full colour range. The EF nib is really great. I'll shut up now.
