Welcome to the back to the 2021 Organized 2PeasRefugees scrap challenge. It does not matter where you are in your journey of organizing you are welcome to join us and do a little or do a lot! Find a system that works for you and your space. How do you scrap and shop your supplies? Is your space tiny or a whole room? Do you live where there special considerations such as flooding or dust? There is not one way that is better than another, just what is best for your style and needs!
This challenge is to encourage you to work towards a more organized crafting life, so that you can find what you purchased when you want to use it! My best rule of thumb is that it should not take more than three moves to get to what you want to use on your project.
If you are on a team for the team challenges you can claim 10 points for each hour spent. The time does not need to be consecutive. Bonus of 1 point for each before and after photo. The following tasks will count towards the crafting organization:
• Cleaning up after your latest crafting session (ie desk before, desk after)
• Scrubbing or vacuuming the floor in your space. Dusting your space (I live in the desert next to a dirt road and own four German Shepherds so this is a regular event )
• Organizing a supply or completely re-doing your entire space.
• Sorting, editing, backing up, or ordering photos.
• Setting up page kits for photos or organizing the ones that you get as a monthly subscription with photos.

• Essentially anything that is related to crafting that needs to be done to “spark joy”! (I’m not necessary a huge Marie Kondo fan . . . but she does have some good ideas!)
So this month the scrappy supplies to organize for bonus points are INK PADS, INKS, ALCOHOL INKS, STICKLES, LIQUID PEARLS, EMBOSSING POWDER, FLOCK, GLITTER, all those little extras you use in scrapbooking or card making! Bonus points, each hour is worth 20 points!
Here are some example of how I organize my stash . . . yes, I have a great deal, but remember I've been in this craft since 1994! (First stamp purchase in 1988 along with embossing powder from Hot Off The Press.)
The NSBR organization challenge is moving to our clothing . . . away from the kitchen. Let us try to go through our lingerie and pj drawers. Get rid of what you haven't worn in the last year, or simple doesn't fit your style anymore! Double your points for this task as well!
Here's my before, I need to purge a little myself!
