Maggie had this wonderful idea for me and came over last night to make sure it was in action. We got our groove on sorting some studio sweets for flat-rate ship/shop boxes. By color!
Yesterday I tried it out and made up one that was all pinks. It was much more fun to destash by color - like filling treat bags for a party or a class. We put on some cute vintage aprons (discovered in the mix), got our laughs going (Mom, that's not Green! Yes, but it looks so pretty with Green!) and generally had a very nice evening.
Hot as blazes out there, but today it feels much cooler in the studio. More room to breathe. Thanks, Mags! As promised, I'm working on Orange this afternoon. Or maybe Blue. Or Yellow.
your title reminds me of that Dr. Seuss book, My Many Colored Days. Perhaps my favorite Seuss.
