If
your sewing or crafting room could use a tune-up, Linda -- an avid
quilter -- is ready to help! She organizes sewing rooms and provides
innovative methods to make your hobby room more efficient.
She offers a variety of organizing options depending upon your budget
and level of need. For those who want Linda's help from start to
finish, you can start with a Basic Needs Assessment followed by
Hands-On Organizing assistance. If you prefer to work on your own
"time and dime", you may consider her Comprehensive Needs Assessment,
in which you'll receive a 1½ hour on-site consultation followed
by a written how-to plan so you can organize your room confidently and
easily on your own. For those outside of Linda's travel area, or
those who seek to get organized but need fresh, creative ideas and
product recommendations without the expense of hands-on help, our new
Virtual Needs Assessment is for you! Click here for details.
Top Five Craft Room Organizing Tips!
- Maximize your storage space by getting clutter up off your countertop and floors. Go vertical whenever you can!
- Always store cutting mats flat (perhaps underneath your bed) or hang them from a skirt hanger in the closet. Never stand them on end.
- Adjustable shelving is
necessary for storing your supplies or containers. For example, I
sort my fabric by color (and/or novelty print) and store them in clear
stackable containers. I only stack two containers per shelf.
- Adequate lighting is
crucial! I recommend Ott lamps (or a comparable brand) because
they emit true color and don't give off heat (do not use halogen
bulbs). You can even purchase magnifier lamps, a valuable tool
for doing fine hand work.
- Beware of cork boards. They're great to hang your current pattern, but excessive paper and photos create visual clutter.
