I really have been quite busy doing my best to organize my craft room. Right now, you wouldn't believe it because it looks like a tornado hit it. Saturday, DH and I spent a number of hours putting together some of those Organized Living cubes you can get at Michael's or JoAnns(I got mine at a deep discount combining a 60% off sale with an additional 25% off entire purchase coupon - whoohoo), and I am really pleased with how they turned out. But, I needed to find wall space for them and decide how I was going to fill them, etc. Two days later, and the cubes are full, but so is the middle of the room. I can't just do anything the easy way, I have to decide to go through all my stash and other junk and try and cull some things. Came up with probably 100 Southern Living and Midwest Living and BH &G magazines that I was going to get around to reading sometime..... Since I can't recycle them, and my kids don't want them, I think I am going to put them up on ebay. I really can't stand the idea of filling a land fill with them. I still have several bookcases to go through and pitch or organize, but when I am done, it will be wonderful!!
The lone picture I have for you today is my completed boxes of DMC with at least two bobbins of every color in them. They are on a bookcase that probably won't be messed with much. Next weekend I plan to not only have my updated WIPocalypse photo, but maybe even some pictures of my "newly organized" craft room.
Until then, thank you so much for visiting my blog and for posting such lovely comments. Until next time, have a happy, healthy, stitchy time!!

Looks like you are coming along on your organization of your craft room!
Keep up with the organization and it will look awesome!
I've been trying to get more organized this year too. Good luck with your organizing. I look forward to your pictures.
Well done for getting organized in your craft room - can't wait to see the pictures.
It's great to get something on sale, plus a coupon! I'm looking forward to pics of your craft room!
Taking the time to get organized leaves a great feeling, doesn't it? One of these days... Look forward to seeing how yours turns out.
It sounds like you have had fun playing in your stash (oops getting organised...LOL). Look forward to seeing pictures of your craft room when it is all done and organised.
If the don't sell on ebay, Beth, try giving the magazines to your local library. We accept them at mine and sell them in our little library bookstore to raise money for new materials.
I'm looking forward to seeing your finished re-organization :)
Well done with organization of your craft room ' I need to do mine in the Spring , mine is in a right mess right now.
Good for you, you'll love your new craft room when you're done!
It will be such a great feeling when you stand back and admire that clean, organized craft room. Persevere my friend!
Nice organizing! Good for you, Beth!
