    I can think of a lot of uses for the organizer, also I want to make those net scrubbers when you take a shower. I have one that is coming all undone so I was thinking of trying to make a new one and also for gifts. A bit of net wouldn't cost almost anything. Just another idea. maybe make it like the scrunchies.

    Finally someone has shown the finished product in the beginning of the video!
    All of my cords are neat as I control them in 3 ways.
    I use the velcro ties and wrap it around both sides of the coiled cords.
    Another way is to use the elastic ponytail holders. As they come in different colors, the cords can be sorted by color. My micro cables are black and my C cables are red.
    The last way is just to place them in zip lock bags.

      ❤❤❤😂😂 Pleasant Good Morning dear Alysa. I've been viewing your videos for years now, and they're wonderful. I could've and should've been making more of these small stuff as they take less time to make than clothes, and are a really faat turn-over for quick cash! ❤❤❤ I am a very creative individual, but sometimes, we allow too many of life's woes get us down and keep us down. And I'm here to encourage somebody not to do that! Don't let life situations to hold you back, keep you stuck, and keep you broke, ok. Almighty God is a highly creative being!! Just look at the world around us!!! 😂 We are almost to the end of August, and the school vacation, here in Trinidad and Tobago, in the West Indies, that is. And I am now busy making a lot of these small projects to sell. The hustle is real ppl!! 😂 Many parents are shopping around for school supplies, and little gifts for their kids, for the reopening of the new school term in September, 2024. Thank you so much for the ideas that you bring forth. Some I already know how to do. And some are new additions. They're all awesome! ❤❤❤ We do serve an Awesome God with our creativity!!! ❤❤❤ Keep on creating ppl. Blessings to all. Love and respect. 100% ❤❤❤

      Shawnie, thank you! I got it on Amazon, usually comes in a pack of 10 or 12, and I think comes out to about $1.50 per sheet, BUT, this one had a bit of chemical smell to it, so read the reviews before you buy it :) I did read the reviews and decided to chance it and... mine did have a smell, but it is almost all gone now. Also, I think you can buy it at Hobby Lobby too... oh, and you can of course use the cork fabric or vinyl as well :)

    • @ThoughtfulCreativity
      @ThoughtfulCreativity  2 роки тому +2

      Christin, hello there! I hear you, I work in both cm and inches, but first when I moved to USA it was a pain. In the infobox, underneath this video, I left a little conversion of inches to cm's- just write it down on a sticky note and put it somewhere in your sewing space. Saves time and it always there when you need it :)
