My name is Mallery and I am a recycling hoarder! I wish I was joking but the frugalista inside of me cries a little when I have to recycle something that I could use for a craft. I have even gone so far as to hide it from Michael before I take it upstairs to my closet of shame.
Him “Babe do you really need this egg carton?”
When I get a minute to craft I want to know that I have the goods because time is money! Pringles containers- centers to diaper cakes. Formula cans- centers to my school supply cakes. Diaper boxes- decorative boxes for the family room. Duh Babe!
Michael thinks that I have a problem and I fully admit that I do! My problem is one every Mother out there experiences… LACK OF TIME! Quit humping me like a horny dog and get off my back already!
C’mon guys, make me feel better and tell me that I am not the only thrifty soul out there that does this!

OMG – you just made my evening. And I don’t even craft. I do honestly admire people that have thrifty creativity, but know I won’t do it. Very funny

This actually inspires me to save more, lol. I’m constantly throwing stuff out, while feeling guilty cause I know I could use it to craft, but I don’t have the time to craft, so it just sits there….it’s a circle of guilting myself into keeping it, then guilting myself to throw it out.

Oh I understand where you are coming from with that! If you start saving more then I am not responsible for any couple’s counseling.
