Hello, my name is Lotta and I'm a shopaholic.
There is your first step to recovery! Admitting you've got a problem. Or in this case, a "collection"!

Oh, how I envy and admire your self discipline.
I just made big splurge on Dear Lizzy, Amy Tangerine, Crate Paper and Glitz! But now, I am definitely done shopping for a while.

I bought a new project life kit and a few organizational items in January, but since then I've been good. It gets easier to not spend money the longer you keep at it (well at least for me). |

You can do it! I find that usually the longer I wait to get something, the less I want it. I had a long wish list after seeing the CHA collections, but I've already lost interest in some of the products that aren't hitting stores for a few more weeks or a couple months. | |

I too need to remain strong. I have only bought 2 sheets of paper and some divided page protectors in the last 3 (or maybe more) months. So proud!
But it's hard to resist the new Dear Lizzy line. If I can just make it through the next week it should be all sold out and I'll be fine |

So yeah.....I went to HL today because I really "needed" the Ranger ink applicator tool thing. Plus all paper crafting items were supposedly 40% off. Of course, the majority of the things I grabbed were not and unbeknownst to me at the time. $74 later. Time to refreeze! | |

Sat. was coupon day @ LSS so I broke down and bought a a bigger cutting mat and only spent $13 that trip. It could have been disastrous with new product and Girl Scouts selling cookies. I think I exhausted my willpower reserves.  | |
