Tackle It Tuesday: Cleaning up my itty, bitty tiny craft room

Okay, maybe my craft room / scrapbook room / office is not itty bitty, but it certainly is not big. My room is 35 square feet -- 5 feet by 7 feet. And, although I will admit that I don't use it as often as I would like (sometimes I am apt to bring things out to work at the kitchen table or my desk in the living room so that I can be with the family), it is probably one of my favorite rooms in the house. This is because I love how smart my husband has been while arranging as much storage as possible in this small space.

But, as often happens, it is a mess right now. I'm doing some major Spring cleaning in the room right now (which takes longer than you'd expect a 35 square foot room to take, thanks to so much storage space), but hope to be back with almost before (I had already put a couple of things away) pictures and after pictures.

If you have a small space in your house for a home office or craft / scrapbook room, be sure to pop back later to see what we have done with our space (especially once it is clean!).

Done! WooHoo!!! Here are the before and after pictures, but be warned -- it is very hard to take pictures of a 35 square foot room that is right off of a small hallway. So, the pictures aren't the best, but you'll get the idea.

Before (after I actually had put away just a few things):

I got rid of some things, but mostly this was achieved through just reorganizing (check out all the open spaces that I have now!). It's hard to see, but most of the white baskets are labeled with what their contents are.
