Craft Room Clean Up

For months now, well... since we moved in April, my craft room has been a mess. There have been boxes stacked up since the move, and crafting holiday gifts did not help things either. Sunday I got to work cleaning it up! I am not finished yet, there are a couple of small bins to go through and a closet to organize.. but it is already so much better!

Before:
And After:

It was hard, but I narrowed down the supplies that I keep on the top of my workspace to these 4 containers. On the left is a basket with my crop-a-dile, scissors, stapler, corner rounder and small hole punches. The pink bucket holds my pens, the tall white basket thingy holds all of my adhesives (with extras in a basket in the closet) and the green container holds journaling cards and scraps of lined PP. Hopefully I will have the rest of the room cleaned up in the next few days!

My area always looks like a bomb went off. It frustrates me but I can never seem to get on top of it. I wish you cleanliness and organization - someone should get to enjoy a beautiful work space! ;)

I didn't know there was a table under there. Just kidding. your craft room looks great and will probably be easier to use. I need to clean mine...
Enjoy your wonderful clean craft room!

Looks great! Mine looks like your before when I'm working... I thrive in the mess and my creativity seems to grow when I see random piles of scraps and colors together...

But the rational side of me... likes it clean. And sometimes it's too clean, that I don't want to start anything, because then it will make a mess! LOL
