Welcome to the
NEGLECTED STUFF CHALLENGE BLOG
where you can share your creations using the stuff you've
neglected to use for months/years.
Things that you purchased because you JUST HAD TO HAVE IT then put it on the shelf to use later and never got around to it!! You know you've done it . . . we all have! LOL
Brought to you by the Dynamic Duo of Diane & Darlene
(you know ... those two crazy ladies who also run 10 other challenge blogs) lol.
MAIN DETAILS:
(all details, rules & ideas can be found in the tab under our header)
There will be NO THEMES ... Anything Goes but you MUST use at least ONE OLD NEGLECTED PRODUCT and tell us what that OLD product is.
This will be a MONTHLY challenge which will begin on the first MONDAY of each month and run through the 28th of each month.
Winner's will be announced on the Sunday prior to the start of the next new challenge.
No tangible prizes offered but we will have badges for you to proudly share on your blog.

Here's a list of just some of the stuff you might have laying around but not used for months & months .
(NO NEWLY PURCHASED PRODUCTS!!!)
Old designer paper packs
Stickers
Rub-ons
OLD punches
Product from companies that no longer exist
(i.e. Cheery Lynn Dies)
ribbon
Ephemera
3D Decoupage images
Gems & Pearls
Old coloring pencils / markers / etc that you've sat aside.
Sprays or Spritzes
If you are like a lot of us crafters who never get rid of stuff (just knowing some day you'll need it), then this challenge is for you! Have a look around your crafting studio, create a project and then come share it with us. We can't wait to see what you have to share!

FYI . . . If you're having trouble following us, blogger has put a limit on how many blogs you can follow. I believe it is 200. Be sure to go into the 'Reading List' on YOUR blog and remove any blogs that you don't follow any longer or that have possibly closed down. Hope this helps!
Give it a couple days after you do your deleting and try to follow again.
Congratulations!! How fun and you guys surely know how to stay busy in the craft room LOL. This is a great idea and I am sure it will be a great success as we all have so much neglected stuff but can't bring ourselves to donate!
ReplyDeleteThis will be a fun challenge! I have lots & lots of neglected old stuff....some still in original package.
ReplyDeleteSay what? I'm just now learning about this blog through Darlene's comment on Bonnie's post. How do you girls do it? Super women for sure! What fun! I wish I could play all your challenges every month but, heck, that's a LOT. They're all immensely inspiring. I sure have drawers full of neglected stuff that I still love and this may be the boost I need.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on another challenge blog-blogger won't let me follow!!! - but I will be joining in x

Carol ... If by chance you have (I think the magic number is 200) blogs that you've followed over the years, it won't let you follow another one until you delete some of the old ones that might possibly be no longer existing but still in your list. THAT might be the problem.
DeleteI'm blown away by how much you two can do (and how much you contribute to our craft)! Love the idea of this new challenge. It will hopefully inspire me to get out some of my old neglected stuff!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for a challenge - bound to be popular as I think all crafters have things they could use! x
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a new challengeblog and I have got soooo many ols stuff and....less time! The day should have 48 hours instead of 24! I wish you lots of success and followers!
ReplyDeleteI tried to follow but failed. So first I will unfollow a lot of old blogs!
Hi Darlene thank you for all the comments you leave on my projects I really appreciate it. Congratulations and best wishes for this new challenging blog. It's wonderful to share creativity and imagination and you give the right suggestions, a hug Taty
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Thank you Darlene for letting me know! This is so great! I have so much neglected stuff! lol So glad you two are doing these challenge blogs! It's inspiring and more fun! YAY!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new blog. I have lots and lots of products but I can't make handmade cards at present due to my sore hands and bad eyes. I can only make digital cards. Best wishes
ReplyDeleteYou two ladies are goal setters! I tried to Follow It but it gave me the Triple B blog instead of this one. Hopefully I will remember to try again in February - the idea of the challenge is in theme for 2025! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the new challenge but sadly failed to follow even after deleting loads !

I had to delete HUNDREDS in order to get it to work. It will take a day or 2 after you delete, for it to work.
DeleteYes!!! I can use things that are YEARS old!!! I have Basic Grey (that I love!!) for 15-20 years!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the new challenge. I had to delete a lot to follow the new Blog- thanks for the heads up on how to do it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a fun new challenge. You gals are the best in keeping me inspired to make!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, what a great idea for a new challenge blog! Thanks for mentioning it to me Darlene!
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea to resurrect old stash items! I've even been rescuing items from my mom's house this fall and bringing them home to use and incorporate into my projects!
ReplyDeleteThis is a challenge that I'd be more than happy to play along with! Thanks for another fun challenge from you guys!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on another challenge, I have so much neglected stuff. Thank you Darlene for letting me know.
