When I opened this month’s Dollar Bead Box and started arranging and rearranging all of the goodies inside it got me to thinking about how my system of organizing keeps me from doing that sort of play at any other time.
It also makes me think of stories I’ve heard about other artists who tend to leave things piled about their work desks and will often discover new and interesting combinations just because of the variety of things that end up in contact with each other.
Being a very organized person and someone regimented in my methods, the thought of doing this rather stresses me out!
In today’s video I consider a few different ways we can organize and sort collections in order to best make use of them.
Here are links to some of the items I showed in the video:

Oh, I’m with you there. I can’t work in the midst of clutter, but I admire people who can.
I don’t mind having a creative mess while I’m in the midst of a project, but it makes me so very happy to clear it all away once I’m done!
