Apartment clean-up!

lavenderliz and her husband moved into a new place recently, and were nice enough to give me one of their old cabinents/entertainment-centers. This means that I finally have my tv and DVD set-up, andhave managed to clear a good bit of floorspace thereby. The cabinent is deep enough to fold up my comforter and wool blanket to store on the bottom shelf, leaving the top and second shelf for the DVD player and DVD storage.

Also the surface is big enough to put my tv on and stack some Ikea Sortera bins beside it. I have one tall bin and one small bin, and I'm going to use them for yarn and fiber storage -- they're just around the corner from my loom, so the weaving yarns will go into the tall bin and various knitting kits will go in the small bin. I might want to get a tall Billy to put at the end for more book storage. It seems like that might be a good use of the space.

Oddly, I think I might need more furniture to get this place really organized. That's a bit weird, and will probably involve more trips to Ikea, used furniture stores, the Big Flea, and maybe Community Forklift -- I definitely need an armoire, considering how small the closets are in my apartment, a set of hooks from my hats and spindles, and probably a few more bookcases and/or storage cabinets.
