Those of you who follow on facebook and twitter know that Ive been trying to de-clutter my sewing space....(((twitch))) so I started last night on the top two shelves. This picture is half of my room. I have more shelves on the other side and cubbys.
So It was unbelievable how much fabric I hade that I dont even like?! Whats up with that! So Ive split it up and Im giving to several friends and hopefully they wont hoard it as I did ;)
So I found THIS AWESOME TUTORIAL on folding fabric for storage and honey boo its changed my life! I have so many different size pieces that its always been a terrible mess to keep it all stacked. But not anymore! AND I tried it on Tshirts and it works beautifully! Cant wait to hit the kids closet lol!
You can see in this picture the top two shelves I referred to earlier - The left side, my vintage fabrics, I did before the tutorial - and the right side I did after the tutorial - and please believe I will be re-doing the vintage. I hope this is helpful for lots of you - Im THRILLED! Ill be sure to post pictures after I am finished (and hopefully it will look like this!! Smooches!

I forgot to mention that the kids are school today b/c they've missed so much from the snow we keep getting pounding with. They've taken their entire spring break and so far they have to go to school on 2 saturdays! But it gives me a chance to work on that fabric stash - LOL!

ReplyDeleteRenee I have those same white plastic shelves. Thanks to your link, Mine is looking much more organized. P.S. I am trying to get the features ready to go again. My son was pulling out of daycare unexpectedly, he's been sick, and I'm trying to get ready for a craft fair so it has went to the back of my to do list unfortunately. Sorry but It'll be up soon. I'll let you know when.
