Resolution update: Week 3

Aaaaaaaaand I'm out.  Of fabric boards, that is.  That sure didn't take long.  While I'll admit that I still think that 100 tiny bolts should have organized much more of my fabric stash that it ultimately has, I'm much more pleased with this week's progress!  While I am NO WHERE NEAR the finish line, I feel so much better about what I have been able to accomplish this week.  Working my way through the second (and last) package of comic book boards, I wasn't quite able to clear out another whole storage cube-- but close!  (Just 3 fabrics short!)  I totally wasn't expecting that after the slow progress of last week...  I am so thankful for the visible evidence that I am actually making some progress towards my goal.  It is making me excited to see what I can accomplish next week!

I also tackled the disgracefully messy bottom two shelves I showed you 2 weeks ago.  I was thrilled to finally be able to organize the fabrics I have many yards of, the heavier weight fabrics, and most of my interfacing onto larger bolts.  (Side note:  if you ask the ladies at the cutting counter at JoAnn's if you can have some of the empty bolts that they are going to throw away-- they will look at you like you just sprouted another head right before their eyes.  Try it sometime, it's fun!)   And just so that you can truly appreciate how far I've come this week, I will remind you what my shelves which held these items looked like last week:

Yikes!!!

That photo still embarrasses me.  What a mess!  But now take a look at what those shelves look like today:

This makes me happy!!!

So that's what 100 fabric storage boards/bolts will do for you...  I like it!  But I have 2 more storage cubes and the WHOLE STINKING CLOSET FULL OF FABRIC left to be organized.  I've ordered more comic book boards (twice as many as the first time) which should arrive this afternoon.  I'm looking forward to seeing how far I can get towards finishing this project with 200 more mini bolts. Organizing the rest of those storage cubes should be a piece of cake!  It's the closet that scares the living daylights out of me...  I think before I start THAT challenge, a Hoarder's marathon on Netflix might be just the motivation I need...  What do YOU think?
