brand new shiny craftroom

My craftroom overhaul was successfully completed earlier this week and I'm in seventh heaven. It's so easy now to see all my fabric at once. And all this empty space to lay things out. My big clear work table surface to draw/cut/work on. It's awesome! And so worth the near panic attacks I had last weekend when the room was completely dismantled into one huge pile of chaotic mess.

I took out a whole set of shelves and redistributed stuff all over the house, mostly to the basement. Here the essentials are left over. My favorite fabrics and books. And off to the side, why the shelves were banished, to make room for my new felt wall! Thanks to Amy's great how-to post I now have a magic wall to which fabric miraculously sticks. What a great way to work on a design. I'm working on a baby quilt for a friend and it is so cool to be able to lay the whole thing out first.

I needed a new button storage system since the printers drawer they lived in was stashed under the exiled shelves. Jelly jars is what I came up with. Tim is skeptical as to how easy they'll be to access but right now I'm just in love with how they look. We'll see how it fares after the romance is over.

All the CD's were banned to the basement and I got a whole new set of shelves for little this's and that's.

ahhhhh.....
