 This sewing/craft room was too cluttered to even be used.

 In less than three hours, this room was transformed into a functional place for sewing and crafts.
  Everything was categorized and re-”containerized” to make everything accessible and easy to maintain.

By utilizing storage boxes, vertical sorters and binders, we were able to create order out of the piles.  Everything has been assigned a place to make it easy to quickly find things and to maintain the order.  Organizational products can be found pretty much anywhere these days, but some of my favorites include Ikea, The Container Store, Target, Menards and Office Depot.
