Who knew I had to many ribbons?!
Today's haul is: a baking tray (from the kitchen, not my study), beads, gold thread, a box, a tapestry, ribbons, 2 balls of yarn, felt, fabric, a scarf, fleece, lace, a shoe box, more beads and cotton binding.
The vast majority of the craft materials is being set aside for donation to a children's charity. When the study/craft room declutter has finished I'll go through the items again and gather similar items together. All the little containers of beads will be popped in a bag, all the yarn will be gathered, felt will find its fuzzy friends. This should make it a great deal easier for the person who will be unpacking the box.
The end is in sight! I haven't been horrified by the amount of yarn I have. In fact, I have been rather pleasantly surprised by how much I don't have! This is probably due to the various hat-a-thons. I am, however, surprised by how much fabric I have. There's a fair few quilts in my future. For the next 15-ish months, as long as more yarn and fabric leaves the building than comes in I'll be happy.
We have some family coming over for a few days in October. My study/craft room will be finished by the end of next week, I hope. The Beloved and I will move up there during the visit. I would dearly love to have a functioning, tidy dining room too.
