I have not gone away, but have created temporary (I hope
) chaos in my craft area. Just about everything came off the floors to clean the
carpets, before it gets put back, I'm trying to reorganize my crafting area. This is a shared living space in the summers, and I had completely taken over every surface with my projects and supplies. Ultimate goals, to have counter space at craft counter for actually crafting at! I work best if I can have a couple of projects going at one time. When stuck on one, I like to leave it out where I can still see it while working on another project. Room under the counter to be able sit there, maybe even have a friend sit with me. Trying to decide what is
really "essential" to have near the counter for crafting, in just a few
containers (I had so many on, under and near the counter there was hardly room to work, much less walk). I have five boxes of supplies ready to donate that I've taken upstairs towards the car.
LOLI'd like my craft cupboard organized so I can find and use
items for a particular project. My stamps, papers, paints, stencils, etc. And, if I can find room, to move less frequently used supplies to the furnace room, where I have boxes of fabric. I need to find room to put away the folding tables and haven't fiqured out where to hand the quilts in progress, so I don't have to keep ironing, the furnace room gets too dusty to hang them in there.
I have made lots of progress in the last 3 days, don't know how much longer it will take. Besides what you can see in the pictures, I still have supplies on the
kitchen counter and on the floor behind the couch. But I'm tired of organizing. When I get home later today, I hope to clear off more space, take a break from organizing, and do some creating.

Good for you, Carol! With as much paint you use, I don't know how you can keep your carpet so clean! But the space looks nice to work in!
Welcome to the Organising Craft Space sisterhood, I have just done mine! Don't know how long the organisation will last but at least I tried!
