I keep them organized in the garage.
To date there are 32 labeled tote boxes



Our weather is cooling, so it was time to box up the sun dyeing supplies and store them away until next summer:

Warm weather is also best for Rust Dyeing:

Last year I started embellishing textile art with metal objects:

It was time to put all of the metal objects into their own tote box, get it labeled and stacked in the garage.

Nearly every class requires these:

At the start of each class, the tables are covered with Drop Cloths
During class and at the end of class, we are cleaning up painting supplies, stencils, brushes, stamps, etc.
I never leave home without these two tote boxes



This year I started experimenting with Shiva Paintstiks and Neocolors II:

I have collected different objects for Rubbings
They create incredible texture on cloth

I even need containers to store containers!

I recycle food containers to hold paints, water, to dye in, etc.




With summer coming to a close, I have been picking and pressing botanicals:

This winter when I need a leaf, fern or flower...
they will be stored in this tote box ready to use.

I wasn't able to take the dogs for a ride today...

luckily they are happy to just be in the pick up:

I peeked inside, between organizing supplies, and found them napping together




Gunnr's head is bigger than Suzy's entire body
