Ok So i went shopping last night to find some storeage sulotions, I still have to sort my stuff out and get it organized but i found two different awsome ideals that I was unable to use but someone else may be able to use. The first is for scrapgoo who said she would love to have a clip it up but dosn't have the counter space. You know those three tiered baskets on the cains the ones some people put fruit in? ok, use a wire cutter and cut all the basket part off so all that you have left is the three rings and the chain hang from self or ceiling adjusting for lentgh and clip items to the rings using christmas orament hooks that have been modified to work. 2nd ideal i found was one of those things you hang over the shower head wal-mart thas some that has a thin towel bar at the bottom these would be great to hang a smaller stash on (in the clip it up fashion) while providing 2 shelfves to store other things on. Just a couple Ideals that i came up with but was unable to use myself, i hope this helps someone.
Thanks for the ideas scrapprincess! I have been looking for something to hang on the door to give me more space and a shower thing might work. I like the basket organizer too...
Those are both great ideas!
I saw that shower thing in a mag recently and LOVED the idea. Using a 20% off at Bed Bath and Beyond you could probably get a nice one!! Does some use that already and can show us pics??

I so have a twisted mind I'm still trying to find the right solution for me but I'v come up with another one for some one else and yes i am hung up on the clip it up system and just two cheap to buy one. ok here's my last ideal i promise instead of the three tiered basket what about using an old lamp shade you know take the paper or fabric off and hang it so that it's not sitting on your desk but still with in reach!
Ok I'm finally done Here is my project i have a large self that will set beside my scrapdesk in my new area. i modifided a large space by using those cheap little metal curitan rods from big lots $1.50 each and paper clips i bent to to hang the items up with (my versionof the clip it up, Told you I was obbsesed with the whole i deal) so I left penty of room to grow. then for my tiny embellies I robbed brian and took his set of drawers out of the hunting closet. he won't notice them gone until fall hehe away here is my before and after. i really hated the photo album it was such a pain that i would advoid using anything in it total cost $3.88 i already had the bags.
Way back when I worked at the hospital they had all of these little bins that we kepts screws in for the surgical screw sets. Well, when the systems were updated they got a huge rolling cart for all of the screws and then they were throwing these bins out. Soooo, I took one That's how all of my "little" stuff is organized (the missing hole is buttons because they're on my table.) Not back in the slot where it should be...when I get my stuff organized I need to keep it that way!
I have most of my brads, buttons and metal embellishments in a "hardware" organizer. I got this year ago to store beads (which got dumped...what a mess) and I've recycled it. (I think it's the same thing Renee has but her's is MUCH prettier...)
I don't have any thing labeled, but the buttons are by color:
And the brads are sort of by type/size/theme:
I have all my mini-brads in this little organizer thingy I found at WM:
And I found these in the $1 section at Target and I use them to try & corrall seasonal items (pink is Christmas only, purple is other...so far just Easter)
And, finally, I have my eyelets (except mini...those are with the mini brads) in this box:
Sorry my pictures are HUGE...I'm still learning how to resize.
