1 Month No Craft Spend Challenge - Day 1!


Hi Folks!  I thought I would share with you a new challenge I set myself today - a month with out spending any money on craft stuff!  If you are like me, then you "need" all the latest stuff, but already have a huge stash at home, don't have the time to use it all and have little or no room left for more!  So, seeing yet another parcel arrive last week, my other half challenged me to go 2 weeks without buying any craft stuff - now I am not one to make these things easy, so I've decided to set myself the challenge for a month - from pay day to pay day!  So today is Day 1!

What will be my reward I hear you say!  A huge crafty spend up? LOL!  No, that is not my intention!  My reward will be the satisfaction of getting creative with more of the goodies that I already have (and in some cases probably forgotten about!) and some money in the bank at the end of the month!

I'm going to make a list of all the things I would have been tempted to buy during the month to see what I might have spent - now that could be quite scary!  But I'm hoping it will show how much I buy on impulse, and how much that I don't really need it all!

So wish me luck!  I'll be reporting back on how I am getting on every few days - and lets  hope there is nothing mega exciting that is new between now and the 17th June!
