    Default Scary Tip for Me!

    Break up sets

    There's no law against it! So feel free, when you see how many of something yo have, to cherry-pick. If you use only part of a tool set, for example, by all means, get rid of the odd drill bits and glue gun that you never touch. If you use only the nail clippers, don't keep the manicure scissors and emery boards just because they match.



    Ooh, incomplete sets...that's a tough one!

    I won't do it and you can't make me!! Seeing complete sets of things gives me a sense of order, completion, mastery, I no longer have to search for the missing link!!
