I tend to be a very practical organizer…go to Target or Wal-Mart and buy a bunch of plastic containers with lids, and sort. One for thread, one for lace, one for paper…you get the picture. For years my studio has been a practical, and yes, a bit boring space. But I knew where the pipe cleaners were. They were in the bin marked pipe cleaners! For the past few years I have tried to make the space a little cuter, while still being practical. For example: I bought this cute little chippy drawer at the flea market last month and knew it could be useful in the studio. The problem was, what to put in it? It has been sitting empty for a month because the options were limitless. This morning I decided on rick rack. Just pink and cream rick rack. {All other rick rack colors are in the plastic bin!}
True confession: I sweat the small stuff. That’s why it takes forever to finish anything. Is there a support group for this? Oh yeah, it’s called blogging! Thanks for being my support group!!
