Before the crop.  I always have such good intentions but seldom follow through.  However as a crop hostess, I may b able to help give you a little incentive to clean .  Watch for a post from me next Tuesday.  Muhahahaha

My space was clean and beautiful last Saturday!!!  Now covered with paper!  But will be clean again before the beginning of the crop!  

[emmapaige]

I am trying to reorganize and clean room before NSD.  I really want to start with a clean/organized space.

Good thinking - can't wait! My scrap area is about 1/4 of our bedroom and it is a mess!!! I need to clean that up!!

[average_kim]

I cleaned off my counter top that I scrap on last week, in anticipation of NSD! But I've been scrapping a little, and there's the top of my paper bins that needs cleaning off....

I love incentives to clean! It makes it almost bearable! 

[beachlover]

oh, if I clean good enough ,maybe I will find my missing box of tags!

I cleaned last night before I started making kits... I will have to clean at least twice more before NSD lol

[jrrah4903]

oh good, cause I need all the incentive you can give me. My place is a hot mess right now!!

[blbabe1234]

Sounds good! And me..I'm working on it!

My Scrap Room will NEVER be clean.  It doesn't seem to matter what I do, or how often I clean it up, it always ends up a complete and utter disaster.  I know I have way too much stuff, but I am also very bad about putting stuff away after I do a page.  I am too eager to go onto the next page that I don't want to take the time needed to clean up what I just used.  Then I have piles and piles of stuff everywhere that topple over and stickers are sliding and I'm stepping on brads, etc.  It's a hot mess (as jrrah4903 so aptly put it earlier)!

Anyone else like this?  What do you do about it?  I think I am going to put a basket or plastic container out for when I am done with a project and put all the stuff I didn't use in that container so I at least have a clear workspace instead of piles.  Then, once a week (ideally) I would empty the basket/box and put away what I didn't use.

It's worth a try - right?  I mean, anything is better than what I am doing now!

OK, should we clean now before Tues? Or are you posting an incentive on Tues to do it? I better start now knowing how mine looks! Oh and thinking I might check my washis, my flowers, colors, supply of bling and anything else I see I might need for the challenges.

I should've took a photo of my scrap room after I packed for the crop...it looked pretty good!!  Now....not so much! 

[Jenni328]

I've been working on mine on and off for the last month. Moving stuff around etc. I swear i organize and move stuff more than I actually use the space. The only reason I get anything done is I go to a monthly crop!

[Sandi0805]

Mine will never be clean and organized.  No matter how hard I try and how close I get.  I just can't seem to get it completely done and the way I like it.  My problem is that I want everything close by.  I have got some of the large iris cases and have been putting loose things in them when I am done with a layout if I don't put it completely away.  That helps some.  Just came back from the two day crop and got most of it put away that I took.  My problem is the stuff I don't take and really don't even know if I still want.  I did take some donations to the crop.   Have tons more just ran out of time to get it ready. 

[redsonic20]

I've been cleaning and organizing for a couple of months.  I want to make my stuff more usable when I can finally sit and use it again.  Alexis is a 'hold me all the time' baby so time to craft is non existent mostly, but I can sneak a little time here and there to work on my space's functionality before I am needed again.  Sometimes it can be to do a complete overhaul of an area, sometimes it is long enough to vacuum and wipe down a counter, but having it in order makes me happy even if I can't dive into my supplies right now.

I'm trying to get my room together, lol!  I should be ready though

[jlparkmark]

What about a pay it forward cleaning incentive. Sort of like a rak. Put in a care package 2 solid cardstock, and two matching cardstock, some matching goodies like alphas, stickers or other yummies, and something fun like a lollipop and forward to a secret sister. Then challenge is to use what you have received in a card or layout? Just my odd thought.

[blfonty]

I see a mess of stuff on every surface in my scrap area in the dining room. Definitely need a push to get it cleaned up before NSD.

[mgehrke]

I still have to unpack from last weekend. Then my room will be clean and ready to go.
