Today I have been mostly playing Fabric Stash Tetris.
Most of my stuff was stored in a set of Argos canvas and pine furniture. Sadly it hasn’t been able to take the weight of all my fabric, and over the years it’s been gradually getting more and more wonky. Today I bit the bullet and offered it all on Freegle, so I had to get my act together and empty everything out of the wardrobe and off the shelves.
The wardrobe, small shelves and bedside table are now rather inconveniently shoved in my kitchen, while I move everything else around in the Shed. All of the furniture in here (except for my lovely sewing table) is either a hand-me-down, or something I’ve had for a very long time.
All of my cardboard haberdashery boxes (from Muji, about 10 years ago) are kept in place by a shoe holder, hanging from a clothing rail with shelves. That had been stashed in the loft since the days I used to take a t-shirt stall to Infest and Whitby. It took absolutely ages to put together, so I hereby apologise to all those people who helped me to put it up and take it down again over the years!
The last thing I need to clear is the shelf unit on the right hand side. That’s an Argos canvas-and-pine piece too, but it’s been dismantled and reassembled a couple of times, and is now very wobbly indeed. I’m not entirely sure what I’m going to replace it with, but I’ll cross that bridge when I’ve sorted out its contents and figured out how much storage space I need.
Hopefully I’ll be able to get all of this stuff into some vague semblance of order by the end of the day – I really want to be able to spend tomorrow actually making things!
