My sewing room is a small bedroom that we use as a pantry and storage
room. My sewing machine table is tucked in along one wall. My
ironing board is on the other side of the room in front of the closet,
which I cannot use. I have a cutting table in the middle , which
leaves just a little room to walk around it. Over time, my table has
become so cluttered, that I now only have a small corner on which to
cut, plan, etc. I'm trying to think of someway in which to reduce the
clutter, which does NOT include reducing my stash. Today I've looked
at some organizers, such as the one at:]

and ...

Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Bev in TX

What do you mean 'closet that you cannot use'? Do you mean it's full to the
gills? or do you mean it's not possible to open the door because of the
Important stuff standing in front of it? Could you take the door down?
Might give you lots of space. We have one of those really cheap
'collapsible stackable' bookcase things in one closet and it can handle
quite a load. Polly

Unfortunately is is the former -- it is full to the gills. Also, it
has folding doors, which also makes it not possible to hang anything
on the doors.

Put all your beds in the house on risers. You can shove a lot of crap under
there if you do.
But don't fall out of bed, it's a looooong way down.

LOL, Cindy. Yes it is. OTOH, it's much easier to climb into/onto a high up
bed when you get really old. I don't know anything about that but that's
what I hear. Polly
