Time To Get Down and Dirty

Now it's time to get down and dirty and
 Unclutter!

There are lots of websites
and professionals that can help us get organized.
In the end,
you just have to do what works best for you.

I've found cloth bags are a great storage system 
for a lot of my projects.

It makes it easy to put fabric, patterns, and supplies all together.
Then it's quick to pick up and take with me.
The bags don't take up much space and store
easily under my work table.

I love using vintage woven picnic baskets for some unique storage.

They're attractive, fun, large, and stackable.
One manufacturer was Red-Man.
Hawkeye was another.
You can find these pretty reasonable at flea markets, Goodwill, or
other places you like to root around.
Add a tag in case your memory is like mine.

Magazine storage boxes are great for magazines and
larger baskets for books,

Round Vintage sewing baskets with wooden covers
manufactured by Harvey are
 great storage for  buttons, threads, etc.
They're also stackable because the handles are soft cord.

 Old muffin tins are fun too
for keeping small things under control.

There are lots of different approaches to
 sorting through your stuff and
making it easily accessible.
It's a great place to let your personality shine
and surround yourself with things that make you smile.

It's not going to take 10 minutes,
but the time it does take
 will be well spent.

I feel so much better.


Until Next Time-
