I have to keep my mini work downstairs to keep the piece . I'm a little like a mole anyway, and it is a walkout basement. I'm inspired because you have kept it this way!

I love what you've done with your ...FANTASTIC!! I love what you've done with your items. <br /><br />It must be wonderful to have a place to work in and one that's organized, even better!.<br /><br />I too use the wrapping paper holder for storing long items or fabric. <br /><br />I use the clear over the door shoe holders, shoe boxes, trunks, three drawer stack-ables as well as the larger three drawer ones which you can also stack.<br /><br />Clothes hamper for larger items.<br /><br />They also have one with drawers that is thinner for smaller spaces. <br /><br />I use the metal or plastic tool boxes for sorting things as well. Also the ones with all the small drawers and compartments used for fishing hooks, nails, screws and things. <br /><br />I use one that is clear and holds wall paper. I found these at the scrap book section. They hold lots of 12x12" paper.<br /><br />You can put baby food jars under shelves for small items such as beads, bits, feathers, glue, paint etc... <br /><br />All I do is take the tops off and screw or nail them to the under side of a shelf leaving a little space for the next top and the next and then fill the jars with the items and screw back in. <br /><br />When you need something all you have to do is un-screw the jar you need. You can also use larger jars such as sauce jars for example.<br /><br />Keep a cheapo paper towel holder under the table or near by. You can screw one under the table at hands reach or on the side of the table and so on.<br /><br />Utensil holders to sort small items. Paints, glue, scissors, tape, pins, pens, pencils, etc...<br /><br />Use bean/soup/juice cans for storing pens, pencils, small rulers and such.<br /><br />Use trunks and hat boxes for fabrics, trims, stuffing etc...<br /><br />Show boxes make great little toy/doll, nic-nac holders.<br /><br />Tupperware in various sizes for holding items.<br /><br />Night stands with drawers maybe from a flea market, yard sale or thrift store. These can go under tables too or if high enough you can put a few side by side add a piece of long wood to the top and make your own table.<br /><br />Pencil holders for pens, pencils, markers, glue sticks, tape, pins, beads etc...<br /><br />Towel racks for folded fabric.<br /><br />Loose leaf binders with clear plastic pockets sleeves for holding printies.<br /><br />Photo boxes for kits and un finished items.<br /><br />Foot stool to store stuff in.<br /><br />Kitchen canisters for storing items. I found some of the older square tin kind at a yard sale and also at a dollar store. I have them on top of a hutch with glue sticks, glue gun and things like that.<br /><br />Well, this is all for now but i'll keep adding more on the group as I think of them. <br /><br /> I hope I have given you some ideas as well.<br /><br /><br />LeilaniLeilanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961951948184197926noreply@blogger.com
