DawnM Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Remember my vent about purging and then my son needed 12x12 sheets of scrapbook paper for school and I had just gotten rid of a bunch of it? Well, I HAD the small 7x7 sheets, but the teacher specifically asked for 12x12, and I figured she was doing something with photos of the class or something, so I went out and bought them. THIS is what they were making: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/368028600778713981/ The 7x7 would have been perfect AND I could have purged and gotten something useful in return. Now I have a stack of new 12x12 that I don't need. See, told you this was a stupid vent. This is so minor, but in cleaning up today it just bugged me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 That would totally irritate me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica in OR Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I'd donate the leftover 12 x 12 stuff to the school. Otherwise it would irk me every time that I saw it. Hopefully they'd have some future project they could use it for. Erica in OR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scbusf Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Ugh. It never, ever fails that I put off getting rid of something - finally donate it - and then very shortly after, I need it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Yell Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Not a stupid vent. I would be really angry. Also, I could have sent/bought paper to look nice, not just whatever I wanted to get rid of. I lways hated it when we/kids were asked to bring in a random supply or picture without knowing the end result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) I'd donate the leftover 12 x 12 stuff to the school. Otherwise it would irk me every time that I saw it.

There was a really beautiful black and white different patterns paper. Instead I bought travel......maps, golden gate bridge, camping pictures in the background. They are doing 2 trips this year and I thought this was for a scrapbook of some sort. I am a teacher and plan to do some more crafty type activities next semester so I can use the rest.
