Before
What do these three art forms have in common? Embroidery, counted cross, and punch needle? The answer is…they all use embroidery floss. My daughter used to do a plethora of counted cross stitch which is absolutely intricate and gorgeous. Now she doesn’t do anything with floss so she gave me all of hers.
After
For a year I had it jumbled in a bag (as she gave it to me) and I would have to dump everything out every time I wanted to choose a color. But no more! On our trip to Colorado when I wasn’t driving I was winding the floss onto these little floss keepers. Clutter clearing was fun because I know the time I will be saving when I need floss. And even though it doesn’t take up less space it is organized.
I used time that I couldn’t be doing something else so not only was I clutter clearing but saving time at the same time.
Do you have a craft you need to do some clutter clearing organization?
Product Review Friday:
Michelle said she has used it for awhile now and loves it. When she needs a debit card she just opens it and goes to the D. It saves her so much time. She has it packed tight so I know it holds a lot of cards.
When my daughter came home for Christmas the one question she asked was how to store her jewelry. She has lived in several different countries and has traveled to oodles of others. Everywhere she goes she has purchased jewelry so she needs a way to organize them so she can quickly find what she wants to wear. She also wants to initiate clutter control before it becomes overwhelming.
Isn’t there another day? Do you sometimes feel like all you ever do is clear clutter and you never get to the end? I was helping my 9 year old daughter clean her room (several years ago) on a Monday evening and I was telling her where to put things and without realizing it I was working way to fast and wearing her out.

My name is Cindy and I asked Marilyn if I could share on her blog how she inspired me. Marilyn is the queen of multitaking. When she can do more than one thing at a time she does. This morning I walked the walk that Marilyn’s been teaching on 
Clearing Clutter in the pantry or in the cupboards where you keep your canned foods is so important when you have limited space. I am still doing Show and Share week. This is my tiny pantry.
My friend knows how much I love to file with the Freedom Filer system. She was sick and tired of all the paper clutter she had in her home so she came to me and bought the system this week. As we were talking she shared this experience with me:
