I am absolutely shocked at how much yarn you haveđź!!! Hubby is right: itâs âyarn gate!!!â I would definitely say you are a yarn hoarder.
I love seeing such a supportable husband. You have a real gem Ginger.
You said, Itâs clear I need more storage! My first thought was, Itâs clear you need less yarn! Iâll finish this thought when I get back from the yarn store. I have some catching up to dođ
OMG!!! Talk about a hoard!!! The yarn in the bags absolutely need shelves!
I would gladly take some hobbit yarn as a prize. Honestly I would have fun helping with this too! Watching this definitely makes me feel like I have like barely any yarn đ€Ł
Oh my gosh, you have your own little yarn shop! â€đ
Gf, you make me tired! I admire your organization and energy to get on it! Iâm so lazy and my yarn addiction has gotten overwhelming to the point that Iâm just ready for it to go to other loving homes! Ha ha! Big, squishy hugs đ„°!
Hi Granny Dee!!! đ Can you tell Iâm a bit overwhelmed too? đ€Łđłđ€Ł And on top of this, Mama Kitty is destashing and has already filled my car once. Thereâs more to come! đ„Žđłđ€Żđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł Omg!! Big Squishy hugging you right back!! đ„°đ„°đ„°
I freakin loved this video! Your passion for yarn and powering through it is adorable and admirable. My yarn is all tucked away in over 100 totes and if I ever have to move it organize it, itâs gonna be chaos!
Watching this makes me feel overwhelmed. Wow. You did a great job. Make sure to secure them to the wall.
It's wonderful to have a supportive husband.... you are doing a great job. I have a yarn room myself and in other rooms too. I get overwhelmed when organizing. I have to walk away.. thank you for sharing...đ
She has been yarn shopping how many times since she went to this building. I feel bad for her husband. Not having money. Did you see the look on his face when he looked at this. I think he thought too this is way too much. Help your family and start getting rid of this. Pattern testing is not going to get rid of this. Challenge yourself to see how much yarn you can use up and see how many things you can sell or donate
this is awesome! Iâd love a part two when itâs finished and a walk through showing ur full stash where you tell us your favorites and plans for what you have :)
Thanks Hannah! âŠ.. Itâs coming!! đ
I would love to buy a mystery bag of yarn!!! I am loving your organization but I like the rainbow that use to have.
My husband supports my yarn stashing at this point, but living in a motorhome with very little space for me is becoming an anxiety issue đ love all the yarn đ§¶
I know what you mean. No matter how big the space, itâs never big enough! đ€Łđđ€Łđ
I Really love to See you complete Some of your UFOs. Greetings from Denmark, Susan đ©đ°
Thank God for Casey and his truck...đ
I love how you do all the long video view of each wall of yarn because I can see all kinds of yarn I have and love and yarn I may want to get when I see on your shelves. Beautiful yarn! Makes me happy to see it.
OMG that multi-colored blanket with the black kitties on it please can you show that!
Hello Ginger. You're doing a great job †You'll get your studio exactly how you want it. Go Ginger â€đ„ł
Your blessed to have a very supportive husband.. if I had so many yarns that you have. I would be in depression.. and every day every minute, I would get a lecture from my mum and brother. I have only one closet with yarns.cant afford to buy more than that. Best of luck
I love Dirty Dancing đđđ When you said you can't put Baby in the corner I literally LOL'd đ
I will have to be born again maybe three times to be able to use part of your beautiful stash.
I love organizing! It just makes me feel better after everything looks really niceđ
Omg! Mr. Ballen never disappoints, he's great!
Thank you for this video as I need to organize my office as I just retired from my dance business now Iâm ready to get my yard organized and my sewing machine.
You've gotten so far already!!! great job ginger!!! Youre gonna feel so good when its all put away!!!
Thanks, Erin! It is feeling goodâŠ. But I know is gonna feel a whole lot better! đ
@@theYarnGeek I feel so good watching the progress!!! my friend compares me to you since I make so many blankets!! You are in good company đ€Łđ€Ł
Yay!! I have truly found my people with this channel. Yay for Yarnies!! đđđ„ł
I reorganized my craft room back in January. I was ruthless with myself, meaning I asked myself am I going to use this yarn? I got rid of bag like those you are using, of some really thick and really thin yarn that I havenât used in YEARS! I started selling my crochet items at 2 farmers markets and I really needed to get organized. It felt good to do this. Then I realized last week that I was lacking browns and the like for making cows(they seem to be a hot sellerđ). So what did I do? Went to JoAnnâs and got some great sales and clearance yarn. So glad I organized because I had baskets and shelf space for all of itâ€.
I am loving watching you settling up your new space!
Im worn out just watching! â€
Wow a huge stash! Funny ..the yarn I am looking for and cant find to finish a blanket is right there in your photo...bernat forever fleece finer white cloud...let me know if you decide to sell 2 of them . I am inđ
Looking awesome, I'm going to switch my rooms around also, what is now my bed room is going to be my craft/yarn room and I'm making the smaller room my bedroom, I'm so excited about it
Ginger, you have come so far already. You have this. I know once you are done everything will look great.
At the end I thought you would be laying in that pile of yarn. Lol. You're doing an amazing job organizing it all!! It looks fantastic! Go Ginger!
Your video was so much fun to watch †yarn
I wish my hoard looked like that. Lol. As I work on cleaning out my hoard... I bought a lot on clearance, and now I have certain brands I like now.
I am overwhelmed for you. Wish I was closer cause Iâm big on organizing and would certainly help. Praying you keep that positive attitude you show us and âget ur doneâ!
Good luck!!
I adore you so much, I hope one day to have the confidence to have an open flame in a room of yarn đ€Ł
WOAAAH just found your channel and your hoard is IMPRESSIVE! I could never own that much id have anxiety about it! ITS LOOKS SO COOOOOL
Beautifulâ€
Love all the colors and styles of yarn or threadđ„°! Just like another sub said, âYarn heavenââ€! I was seeing đyarns that were perfect for a blanket, some for fluffy scarves đ§Ł! I totally understand having to see it all to figure out where it goesđ! My room is always a work in progress with a lot to dođ! Love watching how much progress you and your husband have madeđ! Great work Ginger đđ»đ!
How beautiful ⣠Your yarn studio is looking very nice đ laying in a pile of yarn , that would be wonderful đ
Wonderful hubby! I have one too, he is awesome!
I love it! We are lucky girls, Robin! đ„°đ„°đ„°
I love your yarn hoard and watching you set it all up. I just want to come help sort lol. Thanks for sharing this process đ
I love your room
I think having that much yarn would be overwhelming.
Ginger you are doing something amazing. I have been trying to organize my yarn stash for a while and I do not know where to start. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Bags full of babies. đ love it!
Hi my love!!! Don't worry. Just keep telling yourself that you got this. It is looking great. Like the title says, it's a marathon, so you have to pace yourself. Go Ginger!!! Yay!!! đđ€â€ïž
Hi Theresa! đ Thank you so much!! It is getting there slowly, but itâs getting there! đ„°đžđ„°đžđ„°
Wow đźthat is a lot of yarn đ§¶đ§¶đ§¶đ§¶đ§¶đ§¶
Loving this!
Thanks Bonnie! đ„°
Thank you!!! This was fun!! You can do it!!!
So much beautiful yarn. I hope you have insurance for contents of your "office" space.
I'm not an insurance person, I just think people should have insurance for expensive collections, contents, things that are worth a lot and irreplaceable. That amount is yarn is definitely worth a lot.
I'm always sad when I see something like this get lost and was uninsured in a disaster of any kind.
Usually doesn't cost much for insurance.
Just a thought. I just look at all of that and think how much time and effort and love and expense went into it.
I lost some very loved irreplaceable antique books in a water heater failure and Im still so sad at losing them. Insurance did cover them, which made the loss a little less painful.
Some collections are not covered with standard insurance, you need to have your agent get just the right kind to cover it.
People at home with large collections should also consider it. Individual skeins aren't worth a lot, but if you start adding up this amount of yarn it's a huge expense. Adding coverage on to your home owners or renters insurance should be cheap and well worth it.
Be sure to get REPLACEMENT cost insurance, not "value, " because they will value it much much lower.
You will need to have pictures or receipts to prove the value after loss, but as Ginger has here, videos of it all show what yarns it is so is a document thing the insurance will accept.
Just be sure your picture proof or video proof of your collection is stored in more than one place. Like if it's all on your phone and your phone is lost, no proof.
Store on the cloud or other digital safe place.
I don't know if you would need to insure for moth damage but it might be an issue as well. Insurance can be very veery specific what is and isn't covered in a policy. My dad was a lawyer so I learned a ton about the insurance cases he worked on. Being very specific in coverage was very helpful in a couple insurance claims we have had to do over the decades.
I use dollies with wheels to pile tubs in front of other tubs. The wheels mean you can just move them from one place to another and have access to everything.
Thatâs a great idea, Kathy!! đ I love it that you have lots of yarn!! đ
Thank you for sharing. This was fun â€
Hi Ginger, you and Mr Yarn Geek are doing a great job getting your studio together. đ§¶đ«
It's yarn heaven :)
Another thought maybe you can destash buy putting kits together and selling them as 1 of a kind
Take care â€
Thanks for sharing your yarny fun and insanity with us. You got this! â€
Don't be mad at me, I say this in love and giggles... you young lady and your yarn would make a very interesting segment on the TV SHOW HORDERS. â€
â€â€â€â€â€â€
Itâs getting there, one day at a timeđ
Hi Veronica! đ It is getting there! I actually have a lot more done, but Iâm behind on getting videos out - because I have so many pattern tests going. đ€Ș I seriously need to work on balance. đ
I wish this video never ended đ
lolâŠ. Thereâs more coming!! đđđ
@@theYarnGeek yay!!! đ€©đ„ł
I love yarn and have been on a yarn diet for almost a year itâs hard you take your time
I found when my yarn was making me unhappy and totally stressed
It was easier to control my buying
You might consider selling some of it I also listen to a utuber called
Clutterbug it has helped me so much
Take care of yourself stay healthy and strong
Yes Ginger I love my yarn
I love the movie Dirty Dancing. đ
Yay!! You are the first one the get it in the comments! đ I love live that movie too. đ„°
omg i just know that much yarn would overwhelm me but you seem to be great at handling the chaos. lmk if you wanna write me in your will... it would be much appreciated lol.
O.k. and I thought that I had a lot of wool.
What about a second row of shelves with wheels on them in front of the attached shelves?
Thatâs a great idea! đ€ I do have a few of those project cart from Michaelâs that might work! Thanks Gabrielle! đ
@@theYarnGeek like in an old libraryđ
And I love libraries, so this is sounding better and better! đđžđ„°
I think those shelves are Wonkey ...lolđđđđ
đđđ No they arenât! They are perfect!! đ„°đ„°đ„°
and I thought I had alot of yarn!
lol⊠I am all about making people feel better about the amount of yarn they have! đđđ
I was thinking the very same thing. I even thought about showing my husband and say now I need to get more yarn because Iâm not anywhere close to that hoard! Actually I couldnât have that much because it would drive me crazy. Thatâs a bit too much for me.
Thank you so much you gave me hope for dealing with my own horde of yarn. I believe I can do it!
Yes!! That makes me so happy!! If I can do it, you can do it too! đđž
Do you sell your creations?
Powerful words at 18:30 ish
True, these words apply to alot of things in lifeđđâ€
God bless you and give you the strength every day âșïž
I love yarn. The first video you made when packing I was sweating cold sweatđ it's all beautiful yarn tho.
Have you considered selling or donating some of it?
đđđđđ§¶đ§¶đđđđ
DIRTY DANCINGđđđđ Nobody puts Baby in the corner.
Yay!!đđđ„ł I knew youâd get that!! đ„°
Just a suggestion, might want to rethink having a burning candle in there with all that fiber.
My sister-in-law forgot a burning candle which then found something to catch and burned her house down just before Christmas one year. Their two cats perished in the fire too. đą
So Im pretty nervous of candles. Im a worrier but with reasons and experience behind it. đą
There are some great scented things that are safer and also better for your lungs than candles.
I worry about lungs because I am losing my lungs to autoimmune disease and am on high oxygen all the time, and burning candles make it hard for me to breathe. (Also huge fire hazard with oxygen) Most people wouldn't notice the difference just from a candle, but it really affects me so it definitely can bother the lungs, just isn't noticed in healthy lungs.
Being on oxygen all the time makes it pretty funny sometimes getting my yarn tangled in my tubing. And mixing up the tubing with the long cables on my circular knitting needles. Lol.
This is fascinating watching you go through this whole process. You are doing a fantastic job. Your logic on all of it is what I would do.
You have beautiful wonderful yarn and I can see how you would love love love it! Very inspiring for creativity.
Dirty Dancing.
You dont need to buy anymore for quite sometime
You need some help
No, she needs more room for more yarnđđâ€đđ
