I’m always excited to see the progress in a room. This storage area had become a collect all. The owner wanted it to be a storage area for craft supplies as well as a temporary storage for work supplies. We started by sorting, getting rid of items that were not of use and moving some items to long-term storage in the attic. Craft items were stored on shelves that were easiest to access. Work supplies were put on the far left shelf for longer-term storage. Everything was containerized and labeled, not only were the containers labeled, but the shelves were labeled as well. Now when a container is removed, it’s “home” is clearly marked so it can be returned to the same spot.
The week after this project was completed, her children completed a couple of craft projects. Because they could easily access the craft items they wanted, they were motivated to create! To me this is the best compliment. The family is now using this area as they had hoped to!
