It's spring! Time for Spring cleaning.

Imagine how good you'll feel when you can find what you need.


So let's get started:



1. Clean out your workspace. Throw away anything that truly can't be
re purposed.

Organize your beads and supplies. Find a system that works and use it. You'll be delighted when you can easily find what you're looking for.

I organize by bead type - Swarovski, Preciousa, Czech glass, Lampwork, semi-precious, etc.

Dust your workspace if necessary.

2. Clean out your idea and inspiration file.

If you don't have one, start one.
This is the place to go to be inspired. Mine has fabric, paint swatches, landscapes and of course, fashion pictures. If you've had yours for a long time like I have, it's time to purge. Get rid of the old ideas to make room for newer, fresher ones.

3. Clean out your schedule. Schedule a time to bead. Put it on your calendar and keep the appointment, like any other.

With a little bit of attention to organization you'll be back on track filled with inspiration and creativity.

Feel free to post pictures of your beading work space.
