I woke up this morning with an unnatural amount of energy (could it be the Rockstar energy drink I drank late last night?) and realized that the time had come. Yes, it has been five days since school ended for me, and it was about time I organize/clean my small craft area. Crafting this summer will be my new primary source of income; a clean workspace is essential for any indie crafter!
The dreaded before picture. I had actually already started sorting things into piles at this point, so it is more like a work in progress shot.
And all done!
The first shelf is being used for college stuff and sewing supplies minus my fabric and patterns (hah, that has a trunk of its own in my closet). Shelf number two holds various paper-related supplies, as well as art supplies. The top shelf is for those misc. items that have no category, as well as my AP studio art supply bin full of supplies.
This is my yarn storage tub, located now under my bed. I tried to organize the yarn by color. The random yarn bits, hooks, and needles are housed in the smaller tub within.
I was lucky enough to find the hat boxes pictured at Highly Atomic, a vintage clothing store in upstate New York that is now going out of business. The are perfect for hiding random bits and pieces!
Isn’t trying to organize all those craft supplies a difficult task?
