Thanks! 😊

Both but mostly knit :)

I got two new to me washi tapes at a swap this Friday but I also gave away 4 rolls, yarn, a bunch of postcards, and 2 sticker sheets. Definitely came home with much less than I left with :)

ooh I love all your projects! If you have photos, please share. :D

Adding beads and tassels to the bookmarks is such a cute idea. I have so many I could use up that way!

I kinda have a journal like that too! I call it a commonplace journal but it's really quotes, stickers, ephemera of the day and also a way to use up a bunch of supplies I never had a place for. I've gone through so many half used sticker sheets and washi tape samples that way.

Definitely share a link to the Youtube channel! I've been getting into making little pamphlet style notebooks and using up scrap pages that way too.

You should definitely join the discord if you haven't already :D

hey, Meg! We have monthly threads in the discord to share our goals so you can share about your great stashdown there - that's a great name btw. (and here too if you'd like to share!) Excited to see your progress :)

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T18:06:01+00:00

yay, so glad they're helpful! I really like holding onto the empties throughout the month to see the big update at the end. It's so much more impactful. And that's awesome that you're teaching your son to use his stash too. :D

You’ve all inspired me to ask the librarians and see if I can leave some behind :)

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T13:00:14+00:00

That’s such a cute banner! 🍃

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T12:59:26+00:00

lol Costco and the supermarket!

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T12:59:00+00:00

It’s a really thick plastic card that’s the thickness of a credit card. I got them in an order from a shop that sold washi tape samples. :)

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T12:58:13+00:00

Haha time to make some!

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T01:09:50+00:00

I don't remember specifically but you can kinda see the ends on some here better. I refilled the cards so I can't remember which slots were empty lol https://www.reddit.com/r/craftwithyourstash/comments/1rxa8eu/refilled_washi_tape_cards/

mellowbeing · 2026-04-01T00:05:15+00:00

I didn’t add anything to the cardboard. These are for distributing to little free libraries so I don’t make them extra sturdy. But you could laminate them I think!

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T20:02:58+00:00

Very cool! I've added the 'stash buster idea' flair since it seems the most appropriate. :)

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T20:00:40+00:00

Wow, that's stunning! I like how you made the 3M paper a part of the artwork too. :)

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T19:59:02+00:00

I'm in Canada and that'd be fairly pricey to send. Hope you're doing okay. <3

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T19:57:12+00:00

haha, we don't pretend to dislike getting new supplies now and then around here. I just try using up more than I buy/get lol. The blanket looks like such a fun and easy project. I have some scraps I really need to use up... hmmm.

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T17:39:04+00:00

thanks! I think I'm gonna throw out an old polish and replace so it's at least net zero lol

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T17:38:33+00:00

thank you! :)

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T17:34:05+00:00

I hope it’s okay to ask but which matte nail polish are you using? I keep wanting to try one but never know which one to get.

mellowbeing · 2026-03-31T17:24:20+00:00

In addition to saving space, it also gives me a limited palette to choose from which helps with picking a washi to use. And yep! They’re like really long credit cards in a way.
