So what I realized is that I haven't really accomplished that much in a year.
Last year I was organizing my scrap/craft room. On 2peasinabucket they were having an Organizing Challenge that Wookie Mouse put on. Here is her list of thing to do. Some of these ideas didn't apply to me so I skipped them.
Well guess what?!? I am picking up where I left off. That and I had to re organize some of the things that I did already, Come on give me a break, its been a year, you think the stuff I did would still be perfect, LOL.The reason I have started again is because:
1. I am sick of moving things around to find something I am looking for.
2. I have been planning on doing a video of my scrap/craft room since I started my blog.
3. I made a pact with a fellow You Tuber http://www.youtube.com/user/Scrapdillyishious. We made a deal to organize our scrapbook rooms and do a video of them on the 15th. The 15th of this month!!!!
I tell you I sure have a lot of sh1t, I mean treasures. I forgot how much I had. I have been purging as I go, but not nearly as much as I should.
So I did get down to the room today for a bit. I was planning on doing it all day, but as usual that didn't happen. I got a call from an old friend and was on the phone most of the morning.
So I went to pick up a few containers today. Well they discontinued them. Makes me mad. I like everything to match. Now they won't! I don't want to buy all new containers just so they all match. Well actually I do, but I won't.
Planning on spending most of my day down there tomorrow to work on it. Hope your day was a creative day.
What were you doing this time last year.

Way to go. I have good intentions of organizing but then I pick up a project and it is all over. I hope you can find containers you like. Jan
ReplyDeleteHave fun organizing! I love to organize. It feels so good when you can find something in your stash quickly! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteTracy,
ReplyDeleteI am the same way. I like to very organized but then I usually rearrange my stuff and have to do it again. I always seem to think there is a better way to do something. I think I am a little O.C.D. that way.

I can't wait to see the video of your space! I know how you feel on the matching containers-I really prefer for everything to match. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm working on cleaning up my stuff too!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a great plan! I am looking forward to your video! I will be doing another one once my new space is set up!
ReplyDeleteMy biggest problem when I am not organized is that I forget what I have. One of these days I will figure out a system that works.
ReplyDeleteWow, this looks like quite a project! Looking forward to seeing the results!
ReplyDeleteOh my yippie bo skippy girlfriend... we've only got 4 days to go til' we video!!!!! LOL!! I'm going to go over your list above and see if there is anything that I forgot!! This had been so fun! I love a good challenge!!! We will have to come up with another challenge after this... closet or pantry perhaps? I'm excited! (((Hugs))) Lexen~
ReplyDeleteYou and I are birds of a feather. We love organization! I just organized (should I say REorganized) 90% of my scraproom last weekend. The other 10% is driving me nuts! LOL!
ReplyDeleteHappy organizing! I also need to rearrange my scrap room yet again.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!! everytime I reorganize I find a lot of things I forgot all about! good luck!
ReplyDeleteI love to see scraproom videos. Please let us know when you get yours done! That's a great reason to get organized. I saw someone post recently that they would love to see someone's room as it always is, with stuff out, in the middle of creating. I wonder why no one does that kind of video? LOL. I don't have the nerve but maybe someone will someday....
ReplyDeleteOooohhh, I can't wait for that video. Maybe, if you don't get everything cleaned up, you could have technical difficulties... Just sayin' Lol!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your video! i know what you means on matching container. I'm the same way. Wal-mart just got rid of 12x12 box that I was planning to buy. ughh! oh, well
ReplyDeleteMiss Tracy..once your done with your room come do mine! LOL
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your reorganization. I did some reorganizing early this summer. But it looks like it needs to be done again. I was so irritated when I was looking for something I knew I had and couldn't find it--I eventually did. Good thing--I needed it for a Christmas present I was working on.
