My little beady corner of the world

I recently read a fellow beader/blogger's post about reorganizing her bead studio. It's a great blog, find it at:

I have to confess that I love to organize. If I'm having "inspiration block", I use that as an excuse to reorganize my space. My "studio" is actually one wall of my guest room. There is a large window to the left with great southern exposure.
I use different storage containers for different things. I use multi drawer hardware organizers for my beads, cabs and findings. I love repurposing so I use a metal utensil caddy to hang my delica tubes, baskets for my tubes of size 6's and a wire decorative tree to hand hanks of charlottes. I also use fishing tackle organizers for my small findings and little shells. I like things out in the open so I can see my bead options at a glance. What fun!
