Bits & Bobbin's card catalog organizer

539066321_3fbe3bef15.jpg

Here's inspiration to get organized. Tricia of Bits & Bobbins let us share a photo of her beautifully organized card catalog (bought at a community college auction), re-appropriated to hold all of her art and sewing supplies. She's even labeled each drawer with hand stamped coloured cards, which goes well to compliment the rest of her joyfully decorated interior.

We're hoping Tricia invites AT San Francisco for a home tour of her colourful and inviting apartment. The rest of her home is filled with many other inspiring ideas that goes beyond just bits and bobbins. Thanks for sharing Tricia!

I am in the process of trying to figure out a system for storing my own bits and bobbins. Thanks for this fanciful example of how to do this creatively. Tricia please allow us the pleasure of seeing more.

I work in a library and am trying my best to sweet talk them out of the card catalogs we are currently emptying.

I did get the cards for a few favorite authors and movies.

...oh how I want the beautiful wooden card cabinets!
