What do you do with your crafting magazines?

I have all mine in tubs with whatever craft they go with . My husband is the total opposite , if I were to throw them away he would complian that I wasted all this money in order to buy them in the first place and now I was throwing them away .

I put all of my knitting patterns and magazines in those plastic sleeves that fit into binders, and then put them into binders. They're much neater this way. Maybe you can put them into a filing cabinet? Or magazine holders? Or just put them in a drawer or a cupboard with the rest of your crafting supplies? Because it could just be that they look like clutter, and that is what is bothering your husband.

I have a lot of magazines myself so I went through most of the and cut out articles I like and made scrapbook. I call my book " mind discover". Because that is what I do with my magazines I go back to scrapbooking ideas and articles in them anyway .

I have them in the shelves above my scrapbooking place. I need them for inspiration when I do not know what to do with my pictures. I could never throw them away.

i unfortunatly keep most of them. they are laying everywhere. i started a while back just cutting out what i wanted and putting that in a tote ,but i now just keep the whole mag because i was cutting the whole thing up anyway.

I see some people talking about "pages"--how about boxes and boxes of pattern books and pamphlets! I recently moved and had more boxes of books than clothes, dishes or anything else! So now I'm sorting them and getting ready to sell them on Ebay. I thought about donating them to senior activities places or churches but couldn't find any that wanted them. I won't make a fortune on Ebay, but it's kinda fun doing it anyway.

You could tear out the articles that you most want to keep and start files in which to keep the articles. Then throw away the rest of the magazine. Another idea would be to photocopy the pages you most want and file those. Then sell the magazines in lots of 5 on ebay or donate them to an organization in your area. Either way, you get to keep the main ideas that you liked from each one, but rid yourself of the bulkiness of the actual magazines! I suppose you could also scan the pages and start files on your computer to if you don't have room for paper files in your home! Good luck!

I collect those little cookbooks you see at the checkout stands. You know, the ones with the delicious color pictures! Well, I'm getting overrun with them and needed to get rid of them, but like you I didn't want to just throw them away. I ended up selling them on eBay, so I felt alot better about it. I made some money and others got enjoyment out of them at a great price. You can also dump them off at a library for when they have their book sales.
