I think it’s time to go make a mess 😉
PS: I’m having a little giveaway on Facebook to celebrate the arrival of this gorgeous fabric in our little shop. Maybe Spring is just around the corner after all…
PPS: I am linking up with The Organizing Junkie’s Weekly challenge. I don’t have paper messes anywhere (those stay pretty organized) but I consider this space my ‘office’ 🙂
Such a pretty space!! I need to do a big organize day but I’m waiting until I get my own “new” sewing room this year!
What a lovely space you have! Thanks for sharing the reality… I think most of our spaces look like that more often than not. LOL
What a cute blogpost!!! Congrats on the fresh space – – what a nice way to start the new year.
Wow, what a cleaning spree! I had a similar spree here the other day… I definitely need a better fabric and yarn storage solution!
It looks so good! Think of all the inspiration you’ll have now from such a pretty, tidy space! 🙂
Its so much easier to be messy but definitely more productivity when you can easily find everything that you need. I myself am constantly unorganizing and reorganizing my sewing room. If only I had a maid 🙂
I love this post, Amanda! I need to go do a little organizing myself…
What a wonderful way to start the new year!
I really need one of those thread holders for the wall. Right now I have the ‘cupboard under the stairs’ as my sewing closet. But the tiny space has reached max capacity and any more ‘crap’ in there will make it so I can’t close the door. My machine is on a small sewing desk in the living room. One item on my New Year’s Resolution To-Do-List (12 items I want to accomplish this year) is to not buy anything new this year. Hopefully I can weed out the closet by a lot. 🙂
Seriously, girlie. This looks great! You’ve done a wonderful job getting yourself ready for 2013! Want to come do mine now? 🙂
Your space looks great! I love how you even organized your books in color order. I might copy that! 🙂
Wonderful accomplishment(s). Beautiful!
An annoying and hard job, but job well done! What is on the upper shelf above your desk?
There is nothing better than well organized sewing space wether it is a room, a table in a corner, or storage in a closet. The only problem is I would rather spend the time sewing and quilting!
i, too, always think of the time spent cleaning is lost sewing time but it is hard to sew efficiently when it looks like a fabric explosion. You have a happy sewing space and i love your sewing machine!
Great job! Now you can come and organize my sewing room! 😉
I am so jealous! I wish I had a nice sewing space and all that fabric! Thanks for the inspiration!
Love, love, love your space! Great work and AWESOME fabric!
an inspiration for sure!! I need to organize!
Lovely little sewing space. Love the high shelves! Good use of space. Enjoyed visiting your blog too. Great look 🙂 Nice to meet you.
ohmygosh! I need you to do that to MY sewing room! Its a mess in there! Its always a mess in there. I get it cleaned up so I can work and it just gets messy again…. oy…
