this year! My wonderful DH bought me a new storage cabinet with bins for my quilt room. And he updated my analog 15 yr old TV to a sleek new model! So I spent yesterday early afternoon moving/cleaning out the old shelves and we spent yesterday late afternoon assembling the things (not too bad) and setting up the new TV. So I spent this morning moving everything back in to my quilt room and sorting through stuff again!

Now it's done and I really love it! I still have a couple of empty bins and still need to label the bins when I decide that the location works for me. BTW, I discovered several more UFOs. EGADS!! Some will be completed soon, others will wait a while. One UFO I don't recognize -- I can't figure out what quilt I was making blocks for, but the cutting is done! And six 9" blocks are completed! LOL

These were my two shelf units BEFORE

The best part is I don't have to get up and down off the floor to peruse my quilt books and magazines!

What a great set of storage bins. Doesn't it feel good to
get your things organized in the new places?

The unit was purchased at Costco...$97.99..."Whalen" brand industrial storage bin.

Yes we are neighbors and I have relatives living and working in Snohomish!

I think I just put shelves like that on my Christmas list.

Now THAT is a Christmas present! Such a transformation. You must be sooooo happy and will be much more productive.

katyquilter 12-03-2010 06:20 AM

Love that idea. My DH has one of those for his model railroad things. Might have to suggest we get one for me also.

janiesews 12-03-2010 06:22 AM

How nice!! I really need to get organized again.

Rainbow 12-03-2010 11:36 AM

Happy Ho Ho !!

What a difference it made! I love your new storage area.

Feathers 12-03-2010 04:39 PM

Your room looks so nice and orderly...I love order but my sewing room always looks like a bomb went off just seconds before I walk in the room. Someday! Great job on a great room. Hug that DH for his thoughtfulness and help in making this happen for you.

milikaa1 12-03-2010 06:55 PM

I give it two thumbs up, very organized and tidy.

amma 12-03-2010 07:06 PM

WOW!! Looks very nice, what a sweet DH :D:D:D
