Are You Organized?

Hello There,

I have a question for you this morning.  Are your craft supplies organized or do you work better when your things are piled up around you?

I cannot work in cluttered area.  My brain just doesn’t function and my creative juices just don’t flow well in an area like that.  I work best when my supplies are organized.  I even put everything away before I start a new project.  You won’t see me having a couple of projects going at one time either.    I’m thinking that my brain isn’t large enough to work on two or more projects at a time, lol.

Lately, I’ve been frustrated that my sponges have not been organized to my satisfaction.  I use them a great deal and some were missing, just worn out or I didn’t have one made up for a new color, etc.  It’s been a couple of years since I last color coded them and put them in order.  It disturbed me so much that I had a dream about them last night.  I know, I know, this mind of mine is a bit scary at times.

Anyhow, I woke up this morning and re-organized my sponges.

I like to have a sponge for every ink color I have.  I used the Decorative Label Punch and punched a piece of coordinating card stock for each color of ink.  Wrote the ink color on each end of the punch, folded it in half and then stapled it on the sponge.  I put them in a plastic tray so they are easy to find.

Now this is not a new idea it has been around a while, but boy does it work.   I no longer have to wash sponges or worry about transferring unwanted color onto a project.  🙂

Ahhhh, now my mind is at rest. . . . ..  . .oh but wait, those embellishments are out of order. . . . . .

May your weekend be fabulous!
Until my next post. . . . . .
Huge Hugs!
