I too can relate to this and am slowly getting my room together with slowly being the word.

Don't get rid of things as you may need them in the future....

I disagree. Put everything in smallish labelled boxes so you can quickly find it all. I gave each started project (fabric, zippers, instructions, etc.) a box till I finish it. AND I am getting them finished because I want those boxes gone! Put fabric only in boxes that you are easily able to lift! It is heavy! I found I had lots of types of fabric: purchased for quilts; marine vinyl; lace and eyelet; fancies for applique Santas; batiks; solids; florals; fine wale corduroy; pet fabrics (prints); fabrics for heirloom dresses; etc.! A box for zippy bag handles and another for zippy bag zippers! Buttons - I'm still organizing.

Just finished going through my craft room also. Overwhelming project and it took so much time but glad to have done it. Found things I will never, never use and things I was so glad I had. Have also been sharing what I have too much of with other crafters. Unfortunately, the room just cannot look uncluttered but it is organized and know what's there and where it is.

Yes, I know what u mean, today I will go to Lowe's to get my last wire shelf maybe get it up later this afternoon along with some clear plastic boxes.
