Well, where I'm living there is a spring cleanup tomorrow. You can put 20 bags of garbage out. After tomorrow we can only use clear bags and if there is even one piece of material that could be recycled or composted, they won't take the bag. Since DH and I are moving, I am rushing like crazy to empty out my basement. I figure anything down there is something we haven't used in 3 years and is probably clutter that we don't need to haul along to clutter up our next home.
Anyways....as I was cleaning up our basement I came upon boxes and boxes of cards: birthday, Christmas, GetWell, etc. It turns out my husband saves every card he is ever given, no matter what the occasion. So, now I have box upon box of old cards. I'd like to do something with them (can't cut them up or anything though - he'd have a fit) so that they're not just filling cardboard boxes in the basement. Things tend to get mildewy and huge amounts of paper can attract silverfish and what not. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I could do with these cards? Do they make albums for greeting cards? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
