Ready for another PROJECT!!!

Ready for another PROJECT!!!

I picked up this board at Hobby Lobby, 1/2 off a while back, always meant to hang it up by my sewing machine for project I'm working on. It helps if I have objects visible to stay focus. LOL, I hop around from project to project anyway.

The materials above are what you will need. A magnet, glue and I used old buttons for mine. I have a thing for buttons. The magnet set was bought at Walmart, sorry Stina. You can probably use any kind of glue, but this seemed to work fine. Apply glue to both sides, the magnet and the back of the button, press together. Let them dry overnight and you are ready to go. Super easy and great for your sewing room.

Sewing Room-More Jars and Containers

Sewing Room-More Jars and Containers *

Moving right along in the sewing room today, put a few more items up and sewed some. Boy do I just want to sew.

*

Here are a few more pictures. Rotary cuter and scissors have a little home. I found this container at WalMart-$6.00.

*

My tags that I make to put on my handmade items have found a little home instead of a plastic bag. The green and orange containers I found at Hobby Lobby, 1/2 off. I think for both of the next two containers were under $10.00. The orange one has all my embroidery designs stored away.

Now this picture is for a project I'll be showing how to make tomorrow. Now it might take all day, so look for it in the evening. I sold these in the shop and don't have one myself. Can't wait.

Organizing the Sewing Room

Organizing the Sewing Room

I guess by now you all know I jump from one project to another. Well today I was so tired of hunting for things in the sewing room I thought I would get started on this BIG JOB of organizing. I'll be showing pictures of everyday progress, at least one drawer, one shelf or just one piece of fabric folded, it's a step. Hope to give some ideas on storage and using what we have. Maybe by Christmas you can see the whole sewing room. LOL. If anyone wants to join in I'll put a list on the sidebar with the button. You can add the button to your blog so every time you look at it you'll have to put away something. Maybe we can encourage each other to keep it organized.

I have antique armoirs in my sewing room for storage. I love having these. You can't believe how much I can cram fit so nicely into them. (New me)

*

The picture above is not how it will look, but I wanted to show you the jars I'm loading up. You don't have to have old antique jars. You can take a pickle jar and cut a piece of fabric to decorate the top of it. I know you have some fabric. If you look at the top of the armoire I took an extension curtain rod and loaded it up with ribbons. I like to wrap packages with them. You can also do this in the top of your closet.

*

So here is a little button (at the top of the post) you can grab. If you are already on top of things you want need this, but I need a little shove.
