SPRING CLEANING!

It's finally spring!
The fresh air.
Sunshine.
I feel exhilerated.
I took a look around...wow! How did this happen? Everything is all over the place and looking cluttered. I give advise on organizing and storage on a daily basis. What happened in my own home?
It was time to take my own advise. I set out a few empty boxes and began sorting. I realized that I am quite the pack rat. But I know why my creativity was at a low. So much clutter.
Once the old papers and used up supplies were out of the way I was ready to organize. I pulled out several storage units and varies containers.
I started with the Metro Keepsake box. This box is not only beautiful but functional too. I have two that I keep near my desk. The first one contains various items such as paper clips, tape, stationary and post its, calculator, stamps, etc. The other keepsake box contains items items to make cards: ribbons, stickers, paper, glue, brads, scissors, and punches. I keep these items upstairs near the tv because I like to keep busy while watching tv but I don't want to drag everything out.
My medium tote-ally cool tote holds my beading items. I like the medium size because I can take it everywhere; into the car, over to my friends house without looking like I'm moving in.
The Crop-In-Style P3 Tote/Organizer holds all my pretty papers. This item is fabulous. It opens up for easy access but then closes up so tiny hands don't get into it. To complete the tabletop I have two Mackinac Moon Open Top Craft Totes. I put my tape runners, some often used punches and scissors in these totes for easy access. The colorful storage blocks were filled up quickly with photos, die cuts, stamps and ink pads. I set these onto shelves about four feet off the floor. I'm in the process of labeling everything.
I feel the creativity coming back. I just need more time!
