Wood Blocks?

[kathat]

Ok, what do you do with your wood blocks when you go unmounted? I mounted 3 SU sets on EZMount yesterday and have no idea what to do with the untainted wood that they should have been mounted on. Dh says to sell it but is there a market for the wood blocks?

You could try them on B/S/T forum- there used to be a pretty good market for them, but with so many people going unmounted, it's no where near as big.

You could donate them to a school or scout troop for a craft project (bonus points if you can think of one! I've seen a few cute ones)

I sell them on ebay. I usually just throw all of my blocks into a box, and when I get a priority mail flat rate box full, I put it on ebay. I just recently got $40 for one! I sell my plastic cases also.

Ya know...If they are perfectly good with nothing on them you could give them to a childcare facility...the bigger ones anyway. Blocks cost a fortune but kids LOVE to create with them.

I am looking for a set of the blocks that would fit the tiny sentiment sets ( like the ones they double mount) I have not bought any of these sets yet, because i do not want double mounted stamps...
(So I'm guessing if you had some like that (for alphabets too) and you organized them that way they would probably sell better then if you didn't know what size the wood was in the box...

Just a thought,

Stacy,

I just listed a bunch of wood blocks in the BST forum. I measured each of the blocks and listed them by their size and number of blocks for each size. I also am sanding the sticky residue off the blocks as I unmount them 'cuz I sure would hate to buy blocks with the gunk on them myself. I'm glad I decided to go this route after reading your comment.

Thanks!

Great way to display anything from photos to cards to Style Stones to whatever.
