It's not just my sewing room....I am that way ALLL over the house, husband isn't much better so seems as tho we spend half our time searching for something we know we have!! For instance. about a month ago I made little individual meatloaves in my muffin tins...I remember washing them.. then put them away....we haven't seen them since!!! LOL
I'll find them in some ODD place one of these days...ahhhh ole age!!!

You are probably a very visual person. You may not function well when things are put in concealed storage. Maybe implementing a storage system where everything has its place it is still visible would work for you. For example, a peg board for tools rather than in drawers... Fabric on open shelves and projects in clean containers...

i would love to work as a full time personal organizer when I eventually retire from speech therapy. I love to organize things

Me too. That's my excuse for not having cleaned the sewing room lately. However, I am to the point where I can't stand it anymore, so will have to do something.

Around here the saying is ''Its on the islands ''-Out in the Bermuda Triangle there are several islands - Island of Stray Socks-Island of Lost Keys- "Glasses- "Gloves etc...etc...etc...And on occasion the island will send back some of the over flow to us.

oh you are certainly not alone on this one. but, I try to clean up after each project and that has gotten me in the habit of putting some things it the same place over and over. My sewing area is a total disaster right now and I do not plan on seeing it clean and organized for quite some time.

Oh, yeah! Exactly what I set out to do yesterday, get in there and go through everything and find out what is where. I now have a mess that is unbelievable and I have no idea what is anywhere. I did label a few containers and that is the only sensible move I made all day.
