I’ve been hoarding beads again. Well, not just any beads, but cabochons. Lots and lots of them. You may not be able to see in the images below, but they are slowly taking over my work bench. Lovely hubby made a trip to the local WalMart and brought home this stack of organizers for me. What a great guy, huh?

Ah, but it gets better. So what do you do with those myriad plastic organizers you ask? Well, if you have a wonderfully handy hubby as I do, you convince him to put up more shelves to store all your lovely tackle box bead holders.

The metal shelving is new. One side for beads, the other for all my mailing supplies. Seems to be workig much better than all over my work bench.
The work space organization never ends does it? I’ve blogged about it before too. You can see that post here: http://shinyadornments.com/wordpress/?p=157
What does your work space look like? I’d love to see your bench and work room photos….

Ohhh…I have space envy!
What a great hubby! Mine is always hoping that I will just get rid of some stuff and not need him to build more shelves … I hope he isn’t holding his breath!
What great storage ideas! I’ve never collected beads, but I’ve got plenty of other things that’d look lovely in those boxes!
Fun to see what you have done to resolve your dilemma. I have my own challenges in that I sell both vintage and create (re-purpose vintage) items. Finding the space to store the listed items while waiting for a sale becomes a much larger challenge (oh, for tiny beads!) LOL!
It’s terrific!!
I’d love to have some shelving. Mine is all over the place too.
You just have to love a supportive husband!! God bless them!!
I am spilling over on a small glass table and have a craft storage doo-hickey with about 7 drawers that is also full… I need more space!
you know, I think no matter how much we try to organize our work areas, they are never as organized as we want them to be. HaHa! I just succumb to this using the excuse that, hey, art is messy!
Not sure how to get this photo to you but here’s a link through flickr. I have a very small design studio space (actually in my bedroom!) that consists of a 6 foot long table, some wall shelving and a gazillion plastic storage bins for beads & stuff. I have to be ridiculously organized at all times or I can’t find anything! Thought I’d share my tiny little studio with you.
