I know! Can you believe it! I am actually done reorganizing my craft area…I never thought it would happen. I usually get about 1/2 done and then get too distracted by other projects. This time I really stuck to it and my quarter of the basement looks great (I haven’t created anything in yet though…) This picture show’s half of the shelving filled with my standard cotton and flannel fabric for quilting and bag making. The other half of the shelving holds the fleece, random clothing for applique, towels, miscellaneous fabric for added texture or crazy quilting. These shelves are home to boxes full with many miscellaneous supplies from beading supplies to quilting fabric scraps, to scraps of felted wool, to yarns, to completed projects, to you name it – I probably have it somewhere! The metal shelve is home to my beads (lower half), books, and random glass vases for various projects that are still in my mind. Here is my ribbon organizer and some more beads. I also hung a spool hanger…maybe I should put my thread there… The cupboards hanging are from our old house that we had to tear down. We pulled everything remotely salvageable out and reused in in our new house or one of the sheds. I covered a counter/cabinet section with material you can iron on to make it rather large ironing board. You can actually see the table! An overview of my ‘clean’ workspace. Not the pretties area but it works just like I need it too!

Good for you, that's quite a project, and one I seriously need to do too.

oh my goodness. I am going to show my husband – I clearly have NOWHERE near enough yarn stash. Well done, it must have been such a lot of work.

Congrats on getting your space organized!!
I'm hoping to get something done with my current space as well as a new space in the garage soon.
Wish me luck!

Congrats on starting the new year with a clean 'slate'! Have fun creating – it's always more fun when you can find what you need 🙂
