Thank you, thank you, thank you each and every one of you for visiting and commenting.
Boy, o boy…did you have some great tips and solutions for my storage and tidying up problems!! You must be the tidiest people I know.

 
I tried to make a top 10 of the most workable tips that will work for me.

1. Close the door! Ha,ha, like this one…
2. Move to a bigger room. I would love to move but I think I’ve the largest room already!
3. lots of shelves.
4. Make tidying up fun with all kind of pretty boxes, tins, baskets.
5. Keep everything grouped together in pots and little dishes like needles, pins, buttons, pencils, scissors....
6. Store everything by colors.
7. Use see through boxes.
8. Put things away when you are done for the day. Wish I had more discipline!
9. Throw away what you don't use. I rather giveaway.
10. Don’t buy new stuff.…What!! No shopping?...how about my fabric addiction??

I can’t show you the after photo’s … I haven’t finished the job yet.
But I have two winners drawn for the giveaway. I used the true random number generator.

The winners are:: Virginia And Nina. Congratulations! please send me your snailmail adress and I'll send you your package. Summer swap update:

It’s getting colder outside. More time to spend indoors. And guess were my favourite spot in the house is??? Yes, upstairs in my lovely, cozy craftroom. Most of the time it’s a mess up there, but I don’t care one bit. It’s my mess.
I just close the door and the mess is gone!
…You know I tell a lie here, right!



I do care, I do care a lot. I love working in a tidy place. I love things to be in there place. I don’t want to search for my scissors for hours
So I can use some help. Do you have any suggestions are tips?? Please let me know. Tell me your storage solutions, what works for you?



In exchange I’ll have a giveaway. I’ll make one two lovely surprise packages by filling a cardboard box with all kind of “Dutch blue” material. Including some pretty fabrics, band, lace, buttons, magazine and lots more.
To enter all you have to do is leave a comment and I will draw two winners next Friday. Hopefully you will have good tips for me on how I can keep my sewing place tidy!
