I can't work either when my 'stuff' is in a mess.<br />I like your idea of storing embroidery floss in a sewing box: I have one, and I have lots of floss in those little plastic cases - perhaps there should be a crafty marriage so to speak of the two!<br />Have a great weekend!<br />JennJenn Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03751615504931474685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020871316401082930.post-37882844318438149492015-01-30T19:18:28.456+00:002015-01-30T19:18:28.456+00:00Your storage ideas are wonderful!

I also have four bins for my yarn stacked up against a wall, I love your floss storage. I have a similar sewing basket to hold mine but it's still in skeins with the bands on, I really need to get them wound onto cards.Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020871316401082930.post-16526747897269569122015-01-30T11:39:22.970+00:002015-01-30T11:39:22.970+00:00I can SO relate to your craft room story.

I'm still trying to get some kind of order in my craft room but its just getting too overwhelming. I've given heaps of acrylic yarn away but my stash keeps multiplying. Goodness knows what happens in here when I go to bed each night :) xoxDorothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10237217955755971642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020871316401082930.post-33691696452991653182015-01-30T10:54:43.987+00:002015-01-30T10:54:43.987+00:00It's all looking fabulous and I love the CD ra...It's all looking fabulous and I love the CD rack yarn stash.
