    I have a problem with that, I don’t throw much away, which means, I have way too much munk.

  5. Teresa Poole says:

    Nope, not gonna scroll thru all those pages and ads

  6. Susan Sloan says:

    Actually, I think I’m just going to saw them off before the nails. I don’t want the parts with the holes anyway.

  7. How funny. I don’t throw anything away. lol.

  8. Don’t forget tin cans too!

  9. Pam Haines says:

    I smash mine and recycle them. Do you do something crafty with them?

  10. My grandchildren and i do Christmas gifts for the teachers. All kinds of things can be made with them. Pencil and pen holders, candle holders, plant holders and so many more if you just use your imagination.

  11. We also made wreaths for the teachers from empty toilet paper rolls. The kids loved putting them together and the teachers loved getting them.

  12. Carol Long says:

    Love to look at crafts to make. Nice ideas

  13. Has anyone been able to actually find the directions to make resin jewlery from old books. the link says there is an error

  14. we all keep those things and say we will get around to doing something with it. But never getting to them because of normal life they just start accumulate dust then years later we put them out for yard sales thinking I got this for a craft project.

  15. Share this to the Hoarders’ Page. Ridiculous!

  16. I believe I have already discarded these things and have no regrets.

  17. Irene Ratcliff i will have to google that. Haven’t seen that technique yet and now you got me curious. Lol

  18. I haven’t tried this one but you could always google the technique or search youtube. Sure there’s something about it

  19. I didn’t youtube yet, regular Google wasn’t very helpful,thanks will watch one of the videos

  20. Illishia Anne Sterr hmm that’s surprising. Now I’m gonna have to start searching. Got my inquisitive mind working now lol

  21. There is a wood hardener available at Ace Hardware and other places called PC Petrified Wood Hardener. I haven’t used it personally, but I’ve watched several youtube videos that bead makers have used it in. It gives a non-sticky, waterproof surface. I hope this helps.

  22. It’s a shame it’s a clickbait. I’d like to see the ideas, but won’t take time on these. 🙁

  23. Would have loved to have seen some of these, but I’m not going to waste my time going through so many pages when it could have been shown all on the same page!! It is ridiculous to expect people to waste so much time going page to page.

  24. oh yeah cause I need more crap at my house that will sit forever because at one point it was a good idea !

  25. Faith Stuart says:

    Love some of these ideas, I don’t throw nothing away!

  26. Kathy Foster says:

    You have a good page but put all these on one page instead of one per page!

  27. Lisa Ratliff says:

    Bonita Moffitt…. see I have things that encourage my “saving”

  28. I hate “next Page” just put it all on one page.

  29. Dotty Lewis says:

    You need to put them on a list, I don’t have time to go through all those pages..frustrating..
