Monet and Me



are slowly making progress in cleaning and organizing the studio. I started in the closet and culled some of the books I rarely use.


Then organized the books I use most for teaching beginners by week on their own bookshelf



I used some food storage containers to corral tape, glue, and paints. A dowel across the shelving works to organize ribbon.


My desk drawer is very shallow. I had purchased some desk organizer containers, but they were too deep and the drawer wouldn't close. I improvised with shallow lids from boxes, and plastic inserts from cookie packaging. I am insufferably pleased with myself.

  4. Good for you CJ. Your closet is looking amazing. And so does your improvised drawers. I have 2 very thin drawers in my work table, so I know how hard it is to find organizers. Hope you enjoyed this beautiful day.

    1. The room is small so not a lot of space for storage. The pantry shelving was a big plus
