Cerri is hosting Show and Tell Sunday today, and the topic is paper. I agree with Cerri, that this could be a topic for the next 3 weeks...there's so many things I collect! I have been collecting all kinds of paper for years (scrapbooker since birth!), I can't throw away ticket stubs and programs, cards and notes from my kids...it's bad. Add to that, the fact that I buy other people's old papers, and you've got a problem! I love old calling cards...
and postcards, and have collected them for 25 years...
In the past few years I have been collecting vintage wallpaper, and sheet music, playing cards and game pieces...stuff to use in altered art. When I was strictly scrapbooking I never bought this kind of thing because it wasn't "acid free" or "archival"...but now I don't care :)
I have some really messy shelves...
like these...
and some slightly more organized...
I keep the wallpaper rolls in a big clear plastic Rubbermaid wrapping paper box, and the smaller sheets in a smaller clear plastic bin. I have lots of clear plastic shoeboxes that I keep little bits and pieces in...not too pretty or organized...nothing you would really want to see! That's all I've got for now, cause I'm late getting this posted...
Thanks Cerri for hosting another Show and Tell Sunday!
