Last night I worked with an autistic like pedantic-ness to sort out my Buttons and Thread.
Now some might gasp and say “but you have several large boxes to unpack – why do something so trivial?”??
I know, I hear ya and I see that teetering pile of boxes, but I was driven by a greater force.

I was having dreams about it, I was thinking about it at work I was consumed with it and then I saw the several posts on Amy’s blog about colour, and it was almost like fate. I just had to do it.
So I spent around 3-4 hours sorting out all my threads and buttons by colour

And then placed each colour into separate plastic bags and then into Vintage tins.
I can now sleep and think clearly – I think sometimes I do have a little OCD in me!!

*gasp* let me say that I have button and thread envy! you've got an amazing stash there!
I must have caught the same bug, I just sorted the threads and buttons into colours as well on Sunday! ARGH
Been there, babe... I know your compulsion...
VERY satisfying result, I'd say! Now you'll be able to do all the other things :) K
Yeah well you might but don't you feel better now , lol !
i can totally dig it, i got a new thread box and had to group them all by colour.
