Etsy Bloggers are sharing photos of their studios this month.
With bits and pieces of my various projects migrating to almost every room, my whole house seems to be my studio. I mainly work at my kitchen table, not terribly glamorous but it has great light and a wonderful view of my backyard.
I have a variety of storage containers.
I'm particularly fond of these.
I like the orderly little compartments and the fact that I can see what's inside without opening the lid.
This case is very efficient at storing a number of larger items. The multi-level tiers give me a lot of storage in a small space which is really great when I go to workshops.
I'm pretty low tech too and have been 'green' well before it was the 'in' thing to be.
I re-use all sorts of containers from plastic bags to cardboard boxes.
This has been my long time favorite way to keep my supplies semi-organized. The emphasis on semi, because while I'd love to be super organized I never quite seem to get there.
How do do like to organize your supplies/workspace. I'd love to hear your tips and tricks.

River of Gold
AKA Vinyasa by Susan Pandorf.
I've been lusting after Susan's patterns for a while but being fairly new to lace knitting, and being prone to mistake making, I hesitated trying one of her patterns.
Vinyasa is a very easy pattern. Her directions are clear and the pattern is easily memorized. Of course that doesn't mean I haven't made any mistakes nor did I have to frog it and start all over, twice. But that's just me.
I would like it if she would include the pattern repeat in the specs. Otherwise, it's perfection.
BTW Vinyasa is my very favorite yoga style to practice and to teach.
