organization

I spent the last day of my long weekend doing a lot more organizing than creating.
I know that this probably still looks messy to some people, but that is the most organized that our closet has ever been here. I filled four big Target bags full of clothes that we've pretty much never worn in Iowa. What's left that's not in this closet now fits neatly in our dressers or in the closet in our second bedroom (which I also cleaned out and organized).

Among other things, I also tried to create some sense of order in my living room craft supplies/current projects/etc.
That was just an in between storms shot from today. We've had a lot of rain the past few days.

Finally, I got some supplies to make more magnets, tacks, and stud earrings today. I started assembling more buttons for them tonight!

  1. You can come to my house and help me clean closets, basement, beading supplies, garage, and a never ending list. I almost always say yes to the AMVETS lady when she calls. You need larger closets--like the ones on TV with the big screen tvs in them!

  5. Yay for spring cleaning. Send some of that motivation over my way. I'm in desperate need of some to get my craft room under control. I love the sky in that shot between storms. I know what you mean as we are constantly in between them around here too this spring.

  6. I think the closet looks organized :)

    Don't know about you - but I always sit down to create (whether craft or food) much easier if things are cleaned & organized first :)

  7. Thank you everyone! I don't get motivated to do cleaning/organizing like that very often so I run with it when I do!

  8. Oh gosh!! I keep saying I need to do just that! I am just a mess right now and it is driving me crazy. Need silver wire......found every color under the rainbow but silver. Need it now. Solution -- buy silver wire. Use silver wire. Find old silver wire. Ugh!!

    I am not kidding -- in another two weeks, I AM going to make the time to get organized :)
