Between the two of you I feel rather unproductive and uncreative. lol). <br />However, you are about to convert me to a cardboard fanatic. lol The other day we were at the bike shop when I saw a young man taking huge cardboard bike boxes to the dumpster. It was all I could do to keep from calling out, "You can't throw those away! I "need" them!" lol lol sigh I'm a cardboard wannabee.<br />Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

Some things I've made didn't last more than a few weeks - these are usually the horrible soft corrugated cardboard or the cereal box rubbish that gets sat on once, and dies. Others - like the mailbox that is making its rounds on the internet, have survived three+ years since I made it. Also the suitcases, that I am wishing would collapse and die so I can throw them out. The hasps and clasps have all fallen off but the cardboard itself is hard as wood. And our stoplights and traffic signs died early, while the cars and scooter themselves lasted so long we had to hack them apart to get them in the recycle bin. If they fall apart, it's easy because they go straight into the recycle bin and no one feels remorse, only relief.<br /><br />My husband has a good way of helping us throw away cardboard things, especially the cardboard things that are in good condition when we're tired of them, or find they're taking up too much room. He says, "The fun is in the making." And we chant that to ourselves as we throw them out. The girls whisper to themselves, hopefully, "And we can make them again." It seldom happens - making the same thing twice, but it's the thought that helps us be less sentimental about throwing away cardboard creations. This is probably why I prefer to buy clothes than sew them - I feel absolutely nothing when they get holes and rips and I have to throw them away.LiErhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022645291278425282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-64479755012998739092011-10-20T15:40:14.589-05:002011-10-20T15:40:14.589-05:00@NickyNicky, it's funny you should mention the...@<a href="#c3809947899881517314" rel="nofollow">Nicky</a>Nicky, it's funny you should mention the till. I suggested to the kids when they started playing, that they should have a cash register. One kid said, "oh, yeah!" and ran to get it. Another kid said, "No! It doesn't fit!" and refused to have it. The third kid was wisely neutral.
