Here's a tip that may or may not help somebody....

When I was plowing through my piles of paperwork and unstarted/-finished projects last week, I was originally going to gather all my "projects" in to one BIG box. Then I decided that would be too, too overwhelming. So each project's supplies and instructions (if they had any), were divided in to smaller individual boxes which I labeled and put in the front closet.

Now, I can just take ONE box ("project") out at a time and it's not overwhelming.

Since doing this I have completed one of the projects: making my own laundry detergent.

And I have more than half-completed another project: turning a clear glass round vase in to a jack o'lantern for Halloween using orange & black spray paints and a tealight candle.
