I have had an empty cupboard sitting in my sewing room for a few weeks now. I guess I forgot about it until hubby asked me why I still had all of those rubber maids full of sewing and craft items sitting on the floor in that room. I suppose they were bothering him. Hrmmph! I finally put the things into the cupboard.

Oh my goodness! I had things in those totes that I had not seen for years. I was surprised to find disposable gloves, popsicle sticks, puzzle glue and all sorts of other things. I have probably bought more of those things over the years not knowing I already had a supply. I found yarn and knitting needles. I also found a crochet hook that I could have used a few weeks ago. I found doll clothes patterns and quilt books. I found my canning recipe book! Hurrah!

It is a good idea to look in storage totes once in a while.
