I came upon my cherished House & Garden magazines from the second time around (after they were shut down and brought back to life again).

Once Martha went on line I threw all of those out. The rest I tore out the pages I loved and filed them, the bulk I discarded. I just don't have the room for old mags and I feel there is so much available on line now...good luck.

Be up to speed on shipping terms. If there are issues highly sought after, then consider including them in a lot of a dozen or half dozen to move volume. On eBay you can have a Me page that I think can link to your blog. Free advertising while you make money...Good deal, imo.Poet Whale Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10950079072914519227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-799806244517732525.post-43084132273759966112011-06-03T06:18:30.257-07:002011-06-03T06:18:30.257-07:00Oh Pam....it just has to be done I'm afraid.

We are moving out of state again soon...and the last couple of times we have done it - the movers look at you like you are crazy when they have to pack up box after box of magazines. But I always felt like there are so many good things in them, and I have them if I want to look through them.<br />For this move though I have been purging since I find so many of my inspiration pictures online now. I still have all of my Dominos and Cottage Livings though! <br />xo<br />AshlynPineconehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12615735608714752409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-799806244517732525.post-80536391068735955102011-06-02T17:46:03.875-07:002011-06-02T17:46:03.875-07:00C’est ravissant!

It was sooo sad... but.. liberating.. and in honesty I didn't have a choice as I had stored them in a garage and they had become festy...But I did similar some years ago.. magazines from my teenage years.. vogue.. house & garden etc... and regretted having thrown them until faced with the same issue all these years later.. I've managed to hold on to some of my favourites... an Australian Magazine and one Cote Sud... but suspect they will go soon.. I can always reorder the aussies ones in the future.. but right now need to radically downsize.. <br /><br />I've never really been a 'tearer' but think I will have to go that way in the future..<br /><br />Have fun making your decision.. but when you do.. just go with it ... ciao xxx JulieJulie@beingRUBYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424920655462727594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-799806244517732525.post-85632076651350650512011-06-02T16:59:10.326-07:002011-06-02T16:59:10.326-07:00I have so many books, I don't save magazines, ...I have so many books, I don't save magazines, however do cut out tear sheets I really love!<br /><br />xoxo<br />Karena<br />Art by Karena<br /><br />Come and enter my $250 Amazing Giveaway from Tracy Porter!Karenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05206642885608991170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-799806244517732525.post-88744410072065360972011-06-02T16:57:58.012-07:002011-06-02T16:57:58.012-07:00ricki ...i will check out scanalog!!! thank you!ricki ...i will check out scanalog!!! thank you!red tickinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09400289072356876224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-799806244517732525.post-56729009477408721292011-06-02T16:49:15.101-07:002011-06-02T16:49:15.101-07:00I have an armoire full of British Edition COuntry ...I have an armoire full of British Edition COuntry Living magazines and old Cottage Living and Home Companion issues.
