So yesterday being "I Love Yarn Day"---I decided this weekend would be a yarn weekend for me...because I didn't get a lot done yesterday. I had wanted to organize my humongous pile of yarn and in the midst of the projects that I am in the middle of. After looking at a variety of ways to organize my yarn on Pinterest....this was still my favorite option.
The next step was figuring out what to put the yarn in to make it look like this. I saw that some people put them inside shoe organizers--and I didn't like that idea. Others thought of liquor boxes that the ship the bottles in. I thought that might be kind of cool, especially I could stain them and decorate them.
So I thought of these at Wal-mart...they are fabric drawers that can go inside a bookshelf type thing.
I only got four of these...two navy and two natural ones....and I didn't get a shelf thing because first I didn't know for sure if they would do what I wanted them to do...but also, I have that vent--smack dab in the middle of the where I am working. And I don't want to cover it up. So I have two on either side. And they look pretty good with yarn in them.
But...as you can see I still have run out of space! I have decided to get six more...a nice even 10 but I'm still not 100% sure that will be enough.....I might get 12--we'll see. But I can't stack them--tried that and you can see how they buckle a little even with the bags with yarn on top. And then there is the huge bag of projects and these...which I thought looked cool in their little containers.
But I'm not quite sure how I am going to get a shelf thing in there....but I'll be back at Wal-mart Monday since I will be in Vernal anyway and see if I can't figure it out. I might be able to even do a piece of wood all the way across and create my own shelf...but I'm not sure if they will support that.
