Spring Clean




What better way to start a Sunday than to spring clean work work space? Well, okay so I had a muffin and a coffee first, but then I got stuck into giving my work room a good once over. It's needed a revamp so some time. When you have to climb over stuff to get to more stuff you know it's time to do something about the mess. And while the room is tidier, my fabric is still crammed into boxes under the desk which means each time I go to look for a particular piece I have to remember which box its in or rummage through the entire stash. Now that I've discovered quilting I'm sure this problem is only going to get worse! What I need is wall to ceiling shelving and one of those sliding ladders that old libraries had (my house has high ceilings). I can just see myself sliding back and forth grabbing a yard of this and a yard of that. While time and money prevent the creation of my dream work environment, I love looking through glossy magazines at the work spaces of featured artists and designers, though I wonder what these spaces look like when a photo shoot isn't scheduled! I thought I share with you some of the storage ideas I've come across on the web (she says as she turns green with envy).

Outside? In the bath? Maybe inside in the bath if you're running out of space in your craft room!! Great storage ideas we can all aspire too!

I just love colour coded fabric! There is no cure for fabric addiction I'm afraid!
