Hello. I think I’ll start this blog off with some pointless trivia about myself. I collect the most random useless things. You can ask the guys. I’m a total pack rat. It’s the idea that something might come in handy later on. And guess what? It does! Especially for all those do-it-yourself projects. That junky piece of cardboard that you didn’t think twice about throwing away yesterday? Definitely a keeper. Sucks for you!
So I have this bag. And in it, I collect tags and labels from clothes, toys, and all kinds of goodies. The main reason is because, some have pretty good designs and could be used as reference. But another big reason, is I feel like someone took time to create that t-shirt tag…so the least I can do is hold onto it as a piece of art…or something. Call it a poor man’s trading cards.  Well, here’s where things get interesting. Today we got a sample of our very first Nice Guy t-shirt tags! Pretty nifty, right? This is definitely going in the collection. Anyway, all future NG shirts will be adorned with this sucker right here.
That’s all for now, but remember to keep coming back for more “things-you-never-knew or maybe even care about” type stuff. Oh yea…and Wong Fu stuff. That too.

:O
I collect tags too!
But for a different reason.
I save them all up in a small hello kitty locker…haha
Since most of them have a price sticker on them, I like to look back and remind myself how big of a money waster I am.

I used to save gift-wrapping paper year-round and reuse them to wrap other gifts. I’d mix and match the wrapping papers, so there would be different patterns.

Now that I think about it, the artists probably took a lot of time just to create that one design. I’ve kept a bunch of my tags and I’ve been looking at them examining the detain and effort put into it. You have an awesome collection, nice NG tag- simple is best!

I’ve been buried by years of pack rattiness. I’ve so much junk, I can hardly find myself!

Oh, I thought I was the only one weird enough to collect (clothing) tags. I once wondered what other people did with them. I mean, they obviously have to remove them from the shirts and all and I imagined that other people throw them away. It just seems like such a waste.
Oh, I also collect paper bags (the customized branded ones) not just because I can recycle them but because of their designs. I can’t bear to throw designed things away. And I love typography. Hahaha!

“I’m a total pack rat. It’s the idea that something might come in handy later on.”
Finally, someone else gets it!
I can never throw anything away when I’m cleaning.

I keep a lot of tags and random stuff too! I thought I was the only person that did that. I guess not!
Haha. I admire how you can get inspiration from everything too.

I also like to keep lots of things, but I keep one thing in particular: buttons. You know how they give you extra buttons for shirts and things. I keep them. Never use them, but what if I throw them away and need them one day. I definitely keep buttons, and I totally get it!
