WOYWW - Serene organisation

I have been decluttering...a lot...I spent a lot of time over the past few days sorting through my stash and I was ruthless in getting rid of what I will not use. I still have masses of stash left but now I can actually see what I have which helps a lot before starting a Project!

My shelves over my desk have never been this organised, at the weekend, I bought the little clear plastic drawers to the left of my shelf for £1.00 at a car boot sale. Most of my Promarkers are in there now with little dots on the caps so I can see the colours more easily. My buttons, ribbons, bling, rosebud flowers are also on these shelves, the basket is full of tapes and foam pads.

The tubs on the hanging rail are still messy, not had time to sort them out yet! The letter rack on the desk was another bargain for £1.00 from the car boot sale, it holds my scraps and most used glues, scissors and other tools.
These shelves are over the TV next to my desk. My cuttlebug lives here with dies, the drawers have rubber stamps in and other little embellishments. Above are my papers and lots more ribbons.
I hope you have enjoyed this little tour of my craft space. If you want to see more, please pop over to Julia's, you could even show us your workspace, it would be a good week to start as What's on your Workdesk Wednesday was one year old last week so this is the start of a brand new year of desk sharing!
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Julia Dunnit said...

Jane! It looks amazing, and a bit scarey!! Thing is, if you're pleased with it and it 'works' then you'llkeep it this way and we'll have to put you in the 'really tidy' camp!!

Not only are you organized, your storage solutions are great, too. I wish we could find these kinds of bargains at sales here in the States, because I really like these little plastic drawers. Have a great WOYWW.

I just love how organised this looks and I'm especially impressed with your new Promarker storage.
I may have to 'steal' the idea of the coloured dots, so clever and that's obviously why I didn't think of it lol!.

You did a great job straightening everything up and orgnising stuff. I have one of those letter rack things from IKEA but have my embossing folders in and cuttlebug plates...

Thsnkd for sharing your stacking and storing and organising solutions - loved looking at them.

Becky said...

Wow! It looks so organised Jane!! I am a big believer in having a clear out so you actually start using the stuff you like and not the stuff you feel you have to use because it's in your stash lol!! I really need to get some of those sticky dots for the end of my ProMarkers, it's a nightmare at the moment trying to find the pen I want!!
