Try doing it the FlyLady way, especially if it's an overwhelming mess - set your timer for 15 minutes and work until it goes off, then take a break. If you do this every day, even several times a day, you'll get there. Then once it's organized, just consistently do the 15-minute thing once every day or two to keep it that way. The timer really makes a difference. Helps you stay focused and to work more quickly. It's sooooooo easy to get side-tracked.... :)

I finally found my sewing room after 3 days of cleaning and plan to spend my weekend on the longarm watching the snowflakes fall here in East TN. The only thing I have to do is sweep the little ladybugs that come out when the sun comes out like today. We have been told they were introduced into this area to eat aphids. Well they have taken up residence in my window cracks and crevices and are a pain. When they are out in full force there are hundreds plus!! I wish they would fly away, fly away home!! They
bite also! Happy Sewing! |
Lol! I cleaned mine up before my little grandkids came the week after Christmas, (knew I wouldn't be sewing that week!) Now, the floor is covered in "snipits" again! You know, those tiny corners you clip in half squares, etc? Ahhhh the joys....
