I was ready to cave in and BUY some bins. I even went back to IKEA, and visited Target and Walmart and scouted around online. Zilch. Nada. Well, at least nothing I wanted to pay $10-25 each for and still not really be happy.
So I pulled out some more fat quarters, sheets and scraps and had at it. The four on the left in the photo are the latest.
I took photos along the way and will write up the tutorial as my next post.
There's still a lot more organizing to do in here, but I'm making progress. This will be it for me for the fabric bins, I think (never say never!). I like how the 8 across the top look, but any more probably will be Way Too Much. I do want to bring some green into some of the other cubbies, though, so I've still got my thinking (and shopping) cap on.
Everything looks great Debbie. Your room will be a pleasure for you to creat in...and then share what you learned with us!
ReplyDeleteIMHO you were right to eschew the overpriced tat in the stores. These boxes are lovely. And I really don't think you can have too many, but that's just the symmetry lover in me talking!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the tutorial. So kind of you to share.
I don't blame you for shopping, but gee those things add up, don't they? Thank you for sharing your tutorial.
ReplyDeleteThe room looks great. I love the cubbies and your cute bins. Oh fun fun did I read the word tutorial in the comments above? You should publish your tutorials. I want my copy autographed and spiral bound-can I preorder? lol! mssewcrazy
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the tutorial, too. I could use a bit of your organizational wizardry in my sewing area!
ReplyDeleteThis is coming together and looking really good!
ReplyDeleteI love your style. You have a real flair for decorating. Your sewing room is so cheerful, creative and attractive.
ReplyDeleteI like the new storage system and am so impressed with your fabric bins! I think I could use a few of those...
ReplyDeleteI think those four new bins were a great idea - it's looking great. Can't wait for the tutorial! I love the colours in your new sewing space - very calm and restful.
ReplyDeleteYour room is looking great! When my daughter graduates, gets a good paying job and moves into her own place so I can claim her room as a new sewing room, I'm stealing some of your ideas!
ReplyDeleteI am SO JEALOUS of that adorable green room. Wait for it...I'm GREEN with envy. ;)
ReplyDeleteWow! Impressive progress. Your boxes are a lot nicer than the ones you could have bought.
ReplyDeleteLookin' good!
ReplyDeleteDebbie your room looks fabulous! I like that they are all a bit different. Nice touch. A room you'll never want to leave, except of course you do have to work. Darn.
ReplyDeleteLove your bins, and I can't wait to see your tutorial. I'll have to start looking for some pretty sheets. . .
ReplyDeleteJust a thought for your binders (if you are looking for ideas lol) - scrapbook paper works great to slide between outside clear layer and the binder cover itself.

The shelves are looking really good!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome! Thanks so much for going to all the work to share the instructions! Amazing!
