Decluttering and tidying up in the Study of Doom

Don't forget to enter my Blog 7th birthday giveaway! Draw will take place this week!



Hello lovely people, been a bit of a gap since I last wrote anything - I have been very busy with outdoor things now the slightly better weather has arrived; I have also been unwell with a tooth and sinus problem and have spent a few days where I didn't do much at all so all in all a bit of a mixed week this last week.


Car insurance renewal, Dentist and optician appointments are coming up in the next week, not helped by the fact that I could not find my diary to know when, exactly !  I knew it was somewhere on this desk (Gulp)


So I realised I needed to have another go at my desk and the Study in general.   I have been attempting to declutter this room again,   I do this so often and yet the "stuff " just keeps on creeping back. I have no idea why <cough>

The Study contains a lot of stuff. I store a lot of crafting, Forest School supplies, books, computer (in there somewhere!) my desk (somewhere!) and lots of other essential stuff. I regularly file and tidy away yet it usually looks like a bomb has hit it after a few days. 

I can't even blame Compostman, as this is MY side of the Study! He does not dare encroach onto my patch but keeps to his own half. His is a bit tidier...

I loathe tidying up as it is such a waste of valuable growing/composting/chicken cuddling/crafting/cake eating time, but needs must. So after I filed and tidied up and put away all the stuff on the desk ( and found my diary!) ,  I got to work and sorted out and put all my knitting and crochet yarn into their storage boxes. I have two of these full of yarn as well as the "works in progress" yarn which is downstairs. These are just the spare yarn boxes.,

These are some of the quilting fabric stash - there are two large plastic boxes full of cotton fat quarters etc as well as several bin bags of sheets, shirts etc in the loft.

The needle felting box. This is the stash box. I have a small box with what I am currently working on downstairs.

Main crochet yarn stash box and needle felting box tidied away neatly under the computer desk. There are several wallpaper pattern books next to them which I use in my paper craft workshops

Still lots more to tidy up and give/sell/recycle away but at that point the sun came out so I went outside into the Polytunnel to prick out some tomato plants.

More from the Study of Doom, next time...!
