Today I discovered how cool a hanger that hangs several pairs of pants, can be for storing rolls of ribbon. Previously, I had been using a gun rack that I found many years ago at a garage sale; I put dowels where the rifle would go, and hung the ribbons from that. But the whole contraption took up a lot of wall space. Now I can hang them in the closet, out of the way, and they take up minimal space. The one by Closet Maid seems best; I saw some others where the dowels were bigger and may not fit the spools.
AND I found some tie racks that are now repurposed for hanging my collaged necklaces in my studio closet. Also found some small canvas bins at B B & B on clearance for $3 each. And a 3-tiered spice rack will help me see all my mediums better. Better visibility = more use.
And I picked up some paint samples in various shades of white. And there are a LOT of shades of white available, which was news to me. I have always avoided white on the wall, thinking it was too boring. But in this space, I think I want the walls to "disappear" and the supplies to stand out.
With all my running around today, I didn't get much work done in the room. But it's all part of the process, and it was fun.
