When I work on my bead projects I like to have everything that I will be using pulled together and ready to go. I generally pull coordinating beads from my shelves and place them together on a tray to transport them from one area to another. Below is an example. If you follow my other blog you know that this year I am challenging myself to learn a new bead stitch or jewelry technique monthly. I work on these early in the mornings before I head off to work. For this challenge I wanted to use up some extra beads, so I pulled the colors I felt would go nicely together, my needle, thread and my scissors. Sometimes I work in the living room where it is peaceful and other times I join in watching TV with my husband while I bead. You can see that this works really well in transporting a project. It is also nice to be able to grab it and put it up out of the way when company is coming. In this case it worked well as a photo op. Is this an idea that would work for you or that you have tried?
We seem to live in a world of plastic. Our lives are so busy and hectic that plastic storage seems to be the quick and easy solution for organizing and simplifying our lives. I love the function of those pieces but also want a studio with personality, character and warmth to inspire. I want a studio I can't wait to enter! Through this blog I want to offer inspiration and solutions for storage and organizing and to share ideas for the three R's: repurposing, recycling and reusing!
