Have you tried taking pictures and doing an album or scrapbook?
Maybe that would free her to dismantle projects.
She does the same with all her other "projects" she creates. She may cut interesting things out of magazines, color a bunch of pictures, or name everything in her room using little cut out pieces of paper (this is a popular one for her), or use sticks to form some creation, etc. Once she gets her "projects" put together, she never wants to throw them away. I've managed to sneak a lot of these in the trash over the years, but every time she finds out it is like I threw out the most important thing in her life. If I didn't get rid of these things her room would be filled from floor to ceiling by now. The issue with the Legos is that they take up more room than the paper-type things she does and I can't sneak them into the trash and I don't want to - I just want her to reuse them to make something else.
I like the idea of doing an album. She is doing photography in 4-H this year so we may try to do an album of all her photos instead of just using the ones we choose for the fair.
