Default Wood Blocks

I never mount my SU stamp sets so have two trash bags full of brand new wood! I hate the idea of throwing it out. Any suggestions?

Many on the board have suggested donating them to a preschool, burning them in an outdoor fireplace or selling them on ebay or craigslist. It is amazing how much extra room you aquire in your stamping area when you go unmounted! I gave mine to a friend for her daughter to play with.

You might also try listing them in the BST forum here. There's often others looking for extra blocks for various reasons.

I gave a box to a fellow stamper, and I gave some more to another stamper - both of these use them for when they cut apart a stamp, or when they get a double-mounted set (that they don't double-mount). (I also give them the plastic clamshell boxes the stamp sets come in).

I also gave some blocks to a little girl for miniature desks and tables in her dollhouses...

Maybe you could Freecycle them? I'm sure someone has an excellent use for them!

My friend uses freecycle all the time. They are great. If you prefer not to deal with strangers then donate them. I am sure a local preschool or maybe an elementary school would love them.

Definitely see if anyone here can use them. I am frequently looking for wood blocks!
