I’m working on de-cluttering my craft space the FlyLady way, 15 minutes at a time. Saturday I showed you my baby step toward organizing my bead supplies. I made this graphic to-do list using Photoshop ‘cause a picture is worth a thousand words.I tacked the photo right on the bulletin board above my desk. As I complete each task, I will cross it off. That always feel so good. Actually my craft room doesn’t look too bad in the photo partly because I pile my clutter very neatly :-) But it’s still clutter and it nags at me and keep me from moving forward.
The journaling says (from left to right): “Finish this Cancun memory box or toss it. It’s just not inspiring me.”; “Sew these last 9 fabric bread baskets which I started for Xmas ’06!”; Clean out this in-box. It has become like the proverbial junk drawer”; “Get rid of this pile of magazines with great ideas. Cut out what I really like and file away”; and “Clear this desktop so I actually have space to craft.”
Once this is all done, I want to reevaluate all the storage containers with little drawers where I keep all the bits and pieces like paper clips, labels and yet more beads. Do you think beads mate and multiply while we sleep? Or perhaps I have amnesia about buying them all.
