This is what my hot mess of a craft room looked like a month ago.

Here's what it looks like now.

Yes, I know that I haven't made that much progress, but at least you can see some of the floor now! By posting these pictures I am hoping I can embarrass myself into getting things cleaned up faster. As I mentioned before my hoarding problem is your gain because as I sort out my craft supplies and figure out what I don't really need I am giving them away.

Since December is upon us I thought I would load this box up with Winter and Holiday inspired goodies. I've got lots of papers (over 100 sheets) for scrapbooking or card making in reds and greens for Christmas plus some snowy blues as well as a bunch of embellishments like ribbons, stickers, decorative tape, chipboard shapes, etc. I have some items that are specifically winter or holiday as well as some non themed items that have a similar winter tone. Below is a sampling of what is included.

All you have to do to enter is comment on this post telling me a favorite holiday memory or what you love about winter.
