Anyone else burning wrapping paper this morning?

[Jacktheknife]

It's a family tradition to wrap presents in the comics section, probably goes back to my parents burning them in the woodstove afterwards. Maybe even further back. Anyone else burning?

He's right,could be bad for the cat.
Wife use to burn everything in our stove before the BKK cat.
I mean paper,cardboard..chicken bones..you name it.
She was not happy when that had to stop!
For awhile I still caught her doing it with the by-pass open!
I had to show her post on her and what a new cat cost before she would stop it when I wasn't around..lol.

My stove is not a trash incinerator only wood goes and the occasional Super Cedar goes in it. Granted paper is wood in a different form but its the principle of the thing for me .

Pete my wife would burn all her credit card and bank statements ..that kind of stuff also.
I bought her a shredder(sp?) and she thought that was dumb...still wanted to burn the strips..lol.

We have a burn barrel out back for that. Sounds like a good way to clean out your chimney.......not really.

Well she does not do it anymore..but that said never was a chimney fire here.
Pretty good setup.
Straight up from the stove through the second story then out the roof.
Matter of fact the class A goes right up through our walk in closet upstairs ..get some decent heat from it.

Perfect recipe for a chimney fire OR a clogged chimney cap

A clogged cap would be my first concern. We just recycle the wrapping paper. If it's in great shape, it gets folded and stored for the next time. If not, it goes into the recycling container.

I am burning every box (I have 2 kids that each received a ton of toys) and piece of paper in my backyard...I think the glow could be seen from 100 miles away in the sky! The flames were about 14 feet high
