Fabric Stash and Craft Room Love

I love love love seeing other peoples fabric stash and getting jealous at all the yummy fabric they have. 
And all of the wonderful craft rooms people have.
Makes me sad sometimes because I had a beautiful house down south with a wonderful craft room...but thats a whole other store
So now I have a corner and a closet in my two bedroom apartment in Philadelphia. I think I made due pretty well. =)

Now if only I could convince my landlord to let me buy fabric rather then pay rent and then I'd be in heaven!


Meet my fabric stash. Well most of it. 
Oh yes and my sewing machine. Yes that is a tv dinner tray thing. 

On top is where I collect a few finished projects that I have yet to put away.
New fabric I swear I'm going to use every night. 
And half finished projects. I have more of those then anything else. haha

some of my pretty girl fabric.


some of my awesome boy fabric!

some of my large yardage fabric

fleece, acu's, mail crate I never returned, and felt.

sommmme of my flannel and small scraps.


Now follow me into my closet.

There is is in a nutshell. 

bins of flannel. <3 flannel!

some finished products (like burp cloths and blankets) and some cut out patterns ( like burp cloths)

bin of cut fabric. i'm pretty sure its all burp cloth pieces.

crayon shapes. =)
and in the green bin is all my finished pee pee tents.
and those papers to the left are patterns that I bought in pdf form and copied onto cardboard.

giant black box of finished boo boo bags. 
(side note: please buy some so I can empty this darn bin and make some new pretty ones. ;)  )

woven basket full of bib cut out pieces.

thank god these shelves were all here when I moved in!

That clear bin is where I keep a lot of supplies.
Like extra needles, thread, buttons, elastic, twine, mini hot glue gun...etc.

And this is all the clothing items that are done and waiting to be shipped to a happy new home.

Mom Tip-#1


Sure its not a fancy spice rack. Heck its not even a spice rack at all. 
But it does the job and its inexpensive.

Since I have limited counter space I put my spices in my cabinet.
The other day I was going through all of my sons baby items and found his old baby food jar holder. =)
*light bulb moment*
I ran over to the kitchen and took out all of my spices from the cabinet and lined them all up on this jarred food holder. 
Perfect!!!

Four things I love about this compared to other expensive spice racks:
1.The levels heights are adjustable. Making it easier to store some large spice jars.
2.It swivels. yay!!! no more hidden spices in the back. 
3. Its inexpensive. If its going to be hidden in a cabinet, why does it need to be flashy? 
4.It can hold 21 different jars of spices!! 

You can buy these baby food jars at Kmart for $8.00!


or you can get this one for $40 at Target.
ps it only holds 16 jars.


For the Love of Dr. Seuss

Dr. Seuss is a favorite of mine...and hopefully my son's one day! 


love, love, love these finds on Etsy!!
