Organized . . . again

I really, truly tried to resist the urge to reorganize once again but . . . when I read that Stacy Julian organized all her embellishments in shallow drawers by color, I was immediately intrigued. I resisted for over a month, but the idea stayed in the back of my mind along with her comment that having all the embellishments in one place increased her creativity. So since I already had some shallow drawer units doing other (rather insignificant) duty, I decided to give it a try. It only took one evening and I organized mine in six drawers rather than ten. I put pink and purple, green and brown, yellow and orange, and black and white together. I can already tell you that it was worth the time and effort. Stacy is right. We scrapbook by color and seeing all the embellishments you have prompts you to consider things you might never have thought of using. The only expense was the purchase of some small ziplock bags to hold the tiny embellishments. Thanks, Stacy–once again.
