Floss Organized

I have finally finished organizing my DMC floss. The only thing left to do is label each box with what it contains. Below are the pictures of my system.

Boxes of floss
The snack size baggies in box


Each color has it's own baggie with a 3x5 index card for notes on which project the floss was pulled for.
Now to get all the charts and kits in order and filed away but that is a project for another day, week or more likely month.

Great stashing. I have my floss in bags too, having originally started with bobbins.

Congrats on finishing organizing your floss. I would suggest keeping a pen or pencil at the front of each box, so you will note the projects on the cards. Otherwise, you might find yourself in the middle of hunting a pen/pencil down and giving up.

As for your charts, just set aside 15 minutes a day to work on it. It may take a month or longer to finish, but you won't burn out (and take weekends "off").
