Soda Straw dispensers to hold ribbon! Does it get much prettier than this? 



How about this? A vintage baking tin with your buttons and a pin cushion. making it easy for grabbing and working on your project! 

I guess I needed a little sewing storage and organization inspiration before cleaning today. If you want to see more inspiration and what looks like a wonderful quilt sewing site visit All Quilt People and if you want to see their article and more sewing and  crafty storage click here. I know I am going to spend some time after cleaning checking out their web site! Oh, and if you are looking for eye candy related to sewing or vintage notions  this is a must see a visit to The Charm Of Home. Honestly I can say I am swooning when I should be cleaning right now~ What sites are inspiring you lately? Have you done any sewing in the new year? Do you plan to? Do tell I would love to know!

Sew I Love Notions

Today I had to share my love of vintage notions. Where did I get this love you ask~ I believe it was from my grandma letting me sort through all her spools of thread looking for the right color to match the fabric or was it when she had me sorting through her buttons searching for the perfect one. What I didn't know is that it was probably a ploy to keep me busy as a child while she finished her sewing~ But regardless she instilled a heart's desire for all things notions~
Now to store it all I will have to do a separate post on that~ But I was swooning over this cream suitcase with the lavender silk inside. Do you love notions? Vintage or new? What about retro suitcases and trunks? Do you sew or do some other needle craft? Please do let me know~
