Congrats to my wonderfully talented and ever inspiring friend, Jo Packham on the launch of "Create-ologie" her new web-based shopping destination for wonderful crafting and studio organizational items...
Please take a peek here....at what Jo's been up to and to see what she's sharing to stay tidy, organized and motivated in the creative process.
Here's what Jo is sharing about her new venture:
"As an artist, organization was not a strength of mine until
recently. As with all things worthwhile in life, it took me some time to learn
how to get (and stay) organized. Organization is a matter of owning up to your
real-life habits and expectations — your system has to work with you, not
against! Having a gorgeous design strategy to go with it certainly never hurts
either.
One thing that helped me clear the
clutter in my studio was recognizing what was working and what could be
improved. Big, open boxes equal a big pile of mess; however, if I organized the
contents of those boxes into smaller containers, I could quickly and easily
retrieve what I needed, whether it was ink, stamps or ribbon.
I am also far more likely to stay organized if I like the
containers I am using, like this adorable tin with glass jars inside. I love
the art nouveau look, and the jars are so useful! Just take what you need and
put it back when you’re done — how simple is that?"
Congrats Jo!
