Hi everyone,
I know you hate to see another post of a few drawers I have organized, but it’s slow going as I’ve had too much to deal with… (I’m talking about my “stuff” in my sewing room… fabric, laces, repurposed clothing, patterns, etc) I try to get more done each day, but I keep telling myself surely I must be getting close to the end. I can see progress, but for the size sewing room I have, I would have thought a couple days and it would be finished. I did have to chuckle… I think Google was listening as I was thinking out loud… look what popped up on my phone…
I guess you’d have to have a ladder for the higher containers, but it’s kind of neat looking and a great use for that space! My hubby needs this for all his screws and bolts and nuts. He has millions! I would most definitely have to have labels on that many tubs! :o)
Okay, so I’ll show you what I did… I changed up a few drawers and moved things to better drawers.
All my accessories and things I sometimes use for accents (tiny books, flowers, butterflies, birds, vases, small animals, little resin Easter houses, etc) were kept in the top drawer of my white dresser… When you opened the drawer it looked like this…
It was full to the brim and things got caught sometimes when I opened it. So I emptied this drawer in my big 21 drawer dresser and put the accessories in it… it’s a deeper drawer. Look at all my little animals… It’s been a while since I used them… they were buried.
I do need to sort out that drawer. I have lots of Easter things and maybe they could be in a separate drawer.
Here is it with all the stuff moved from the white drawer to the new 21 drawer dresser.
Then I took the things that were in that drawer and put them in the white dresser drawer…my stickers, thank you stickers, address labels, etc. They fit perfectly in the white drawer…
I have this many empty drawers in that big dresser after finding new homes for quite a few items. (Except for the one I just filled…the third one down in the middle.)
I thought I was getting close to finding a home for everything, but I just walked into my sewing room and saw 2 tubs sitting just outside my door in the living room, FILLED WITH PROPS! Beds and chairs and tables and wagons and dolly sewing machines, school desks, a plush couch, (oops SOFA!), a bird cage, and many more items. Yikes!
How about something different… Want to see Joy’s girls dressed for Valentine’s Day? (She said they were for Lunar New Year, but I’m going to bet she leaves them in those red dresses for Valentine’s Day dresses!)
(From Joy:) I finally was able to get a fair pic of Ada and Maisy. They are celebrating Lunar New Year with rabbits. They do not like snakes. 🙂 The second is of their shoes from Ruby Red. I made Maisy’s dress. I’m not a fan of asymmetrical skirts, so I put on Ada’s slip backwards. I like it that way. 🙂
Oh that little Maisy (on the right) is just the sweetest thing! It’s too bad I said I wasn’t going to buy anything, because she’d be in my collection as sure as today is Wednesday!
Another ultrasound for my hubby today… so I better get to bed…
See you tomorrow,
Blessings, Jeanne
