Link: Before and after-Day 1....(picture heavy) **EDITED FOR MORE PICS** I have been doing some organizing and purging in my stitching room today. Due to the fact the room is so small and I have so much stash, finished projects and "finishing stuff" I have to utilize the room in the best possible way. Hubby made me a work table that I could put in the middle of the room so I could access everything I need from the table instead of being in a corner. He was so smart as I couldn't find anything I liked at a reasonable price OR a smaller size for the room...so by adding/securing a large piece of press board to the top of a 4 drawer Sterlite chest that I had in my stitching room- I now have a very durable work table with storage for the items I use most when doing my finishing work :)I am so happy with the end result of this table and best of all....it didn't cost us anything :):) :)We used materials we already had! I was going to paint it-but in the end decided not to as I will be pretty rough on it with using a Stanley knife for a lot of my projects-this way I can just sand the roughness out without taking off any paint! He added my yard stick ruler to the top for convenience. I also have 4 large drawers to keep the items I use the most when finishing. Wasn't that just a brilliant idea from him?? :) He sure is a keeper :)


I went from this being where all my ribbons/trims were stored and very unorganized...

 To this for my ribbons.


And my trims went from this...

 To this..




And my lace went from this...
 To this

All the extras that looked like this...

 Are now organized in the bottom drawer.

**EDITED** I organized the two Shelves before bedtime :) We went from this....
 To this :) MUCH better :)



Can you say HAPPY, HAPPY BeckySC??? I plan to tackle the storage shelves tomorrow...stuff sure has a way of getting out of place when you are looking for something or doing a lot of finishing :) It's long overdue to be organized :)
Thank you dear friends for your visits, emails and comments-you are all just so thoughtful and kind and I SO enjoy hearing from you :) Please do come again :) No update on the Memo Board piece as I have been busy in my stitching room all day today :) hugs and love from SC :) BeckySC
