Pre-P.S. Click on the pictures for a better view of what's in the jars.
Hey, I've got some readers who are asking what's in the jars on the shelves in my earlier "Shelf Project" entry. I took some photos so that you can get an idea of the sorts of doo-dads I love. I can never get photos rearranged once they're uploaded, so these are out of order, but I've included some collages I made using some of the little things I collect. The theme of this project was "Red" and I used a children's cloth alphabet book that I took apart and did lots of different backgrounds on. I did about a dozen of them. The backgrounds range from molding paste to tissue paper to lace to textured paints and all the backgrounds are painted using reds, pinks and reddish browns. I added vintage pipecleaner dolls and gave them things to hold or things to go on the walls of their little worlds. Have a lovely day, readers.

Yeah!! I'm the first!! Love your doo-dad jars - I have a HUGE box of assorted odds and ends that I love going through, but am really liking the clear glass jar idea. Thanks!!
I really enjoyed reading your introduction at the Organized group and also love your blog. Since I suffer from Fibro/CFS and arthritis, it was very interesting and enlightening to read that you have battled and won over this crippling pain!

I see I am not the only one to LOVE the idea of the glass jars as storage/art solution!
I need to wait to eat u some jam before I transform one of my jars into a sparkling universe of JUNK!
Your jars of "stuff" are so cool...It would be fascinating to see them in person!

anyway, i just wanted to tell you that i have been storing my "stuff" in jars for years. i have it separated into like things so i can quickly grab what i need, but i can understand the fun of going through a jar or box or bag that has many different kinds of things in it. always a treasure to find! and, definately magic! rush, from organized studio
Interesting idea, storing in the jars. I might have to use that in my own studio
I collect some of my fibers in Ikea Jars too. I like the idea how even can decorate looking inside the crystal.
I NEED to be organizated as I have to share my room with my needlework stash too.
If you want you can visit next days my blog and see how is my little art corner.
