Progress In More Ways Than One

Last week my goal was to get my leaflets organized. Thanks to everyone who gave me suggestions as to how you organize the leaflets that you have. I don't have a craft room where I have all of my stitching supplies. I have a closet. MJ and I renovated our house about 7 years ago and the room that was the master bedroom is now a family room/den type of room. There are two decent sized closets in that room and I took one over, added shelves, and moved my stash to it's new home. What I needed was something that would fit into the closet and keep everything together, and keep it neat and easy to access at the same time. If anyone who reads my blog also does scrap booking, you may be familiar with the solution that I came up with:

I found these in the scrap book section of AC Moore. They are designed to hold 12 x 12 sheets of scrap book paper, but the more I looked at them the more I thought that they would serve my purpose, so I thought I would give it a try.

The containers have sections with tabs on the top of each one, so I am able to clearly mark what is in each section:

After I tried the first one and decided that it would work I went back to the store to get the second one. I was able to fit everything into both of them and since they are expandable I should be able to use them for a while. One job down!!
The ladies of the embroidery guild are taking shape as well:
I love the colors!!
That's all for now. Thanks again to everyone for their suggestions.

I'm glad it works for you too! I even keep my smaller WIPs in one of those.

That is a great solution when you don't have a lot of space. Nice and compact!
