OH how I loathe this work!!! I have inherited this room as our eldest son, 22 1/2 , moved out in mid June . I have now moved beyond the stamps into ..sigh...the embellishments . My husband says I have enough inventory to open my own rubber stamping store. Sigh. There will be no co ordinating dots, or beautiful storage etc etc. I will be more than happy to get it all just labeled and into my shelving units. ( Most are from Ikea - not this dreadful bunch of plastic units- they will go back on the shelves).
Meantime I have told myself I cannot make a card until I am done with this dreadful task....We'll see if I am that disciplined....come on over and give me a hand!!!!
Deborah!

Good luck on your challenge!!! hehe -- I know that you would rather be stamping, but just think what you will discover and have an opportunity to use again. >

I just finished organizing my craft room.
It is a job and it felt like I was putting a puzzle together, but
it is done and I am really enjoying it.
Hang in there! It is totally worth it!! : )

I feel your pain. That's what my stuff looks like. My son (21) is supposed to be moving out this weekend, but now it looks like he wants to leave stuff at home. Aaggghhh. I told everyone I was getting a craft room!

I helped my mom organize her craft room (the woman that listen's to Carol Duval telling to keep EVERYTHING). It took me 10 hours a day for 5 days, did I mention it was in a double wide trailer in Eastern Oregon in July? 85 at 7:30AM. LOTS of plastic bins just to keep her stamps at single layer, so that she can find things. Do you know that she has decided that the way we organized it made NO SENSE! Aarrrggghhhh!
This looks soooooo familiar...but I'm jealous that you inherited a room all to yourself!!! I currently am scattered in just about every room in the house!!!
