One side- facing West... my table on the right is facing North...
There I have my Candle cupboard, calendar, my book stand and BOS, to the south- where the Burgundy curtain is- is the door out of the room...

My candle cupboard is an old VCR Tape cupboard... not surprisingly when I found it up here it was still full of VCR tapes that my kids used to watch when they were kids before DVD became the *thing*... lol... Well, now I think it's great for this!!! Yay!!! :fairy:

This one shows the North wall- My BOS there in the NW Corner- and the table... I didn't dress it up for pictures but I should have... sorry... lol... And the small shelf holds some of my most used books- it's missing one because it's *in-use* lol ... silly me... Oh and the small table next to that is right now my "catch all"... but is becoming something else very soon...

Here is near my table- under... lol... I have a basket full of stick incense, jars full of powder incense, jars and small bags full of cone incense yet to be fully organized- I've just gotten to this part since I've been looking for more interesting ways to "store/display" them somewhere on my walls or areas not yet used... LOL... And then you can see my cauldon on it's own stand to the right- (between the table and the "catch-all" cupboard... lol- might be hidden by my laptop and post-it-notes stuck sideways...)

Here is the little cupboard on the wall- what's inside right now- but it isn't all that "organized" just yet either... LOL!!! ;)
There are cool things in the drawers- I promise... :fairy: :D smiley_dance One is full of little bottles of oils and the other one has charms, bells and trinkets... and a lighter. :lol:

Even better pictures of the books...

I think I will put the extra jars of incense up on the top shelf... In a different post below I will explain the other things I want to do- and what I am having issues with... LOL... maybe someone will have an idea that I can *barrow*... ;)

OK... What I also have to organize and put/display somewhere ... (I really must explain someday why I need them displayed to be seen... :shock: ) are my herbs, the previously shown incense- I have some for just about every spell or need/desire you want it for- especially in the stick form... blue_flee
I also have large pound size bags- *Picture not shown* (lol, I've always wanted to say that for... who knows why- ha!!! lol!!!) smiley_dance
Oh are you reading this as I am saying it- LOL probably not but if you were me you would be smiling while you read with a giddy excitement of a 5 year old getting a sparkly surprise and showing everyone around the room... LOL!!! smiley_dance

OK, never mind, I'm sure I lost half of you there :lol: ... ha!!! lol...

Also needing a place to be shown/displayed are stones, crystals and gems... small and tiny jars full- to- actual small size able to be sitting on it's own- to- the size of a golf ball and some bigger- like what for me what I would call "Large" that takes my full small hand or both to hold :shock: ... How does one organize all of them... :flyingwitch: most people fly out of the room with those questions and want no part of it... hahaha!!! :wink:

Any thoughts, ideas, or how do you store your items??? Let me know!!!

Blessed Be!!!
Lena :P

:mrgreen: Im sharing the giddy pleasure, yes indeedy-do.
My house is 2-rooms downstairs (plus bath) & 2-rooms upstairs. When stair climbing became an obstacle I relocated to one level & down sized to exactly what I use consistently & (excepting candles of which i cannot have too many) in small quanties. Ex: all my total combined incense fits in a shoebox & there's a goodly variety for all needs. I use a china hutch for display & the drawers for storage. I rotate displays so it's new-to-me every so often. I've just redone it to fit my Kwan Yin collection because BV Mary took over the 3-tiered living room nook. Herbs & oils stay in the kitchen - no need to store twice. For "spice racks" i put coated wire shelves supported with magnetic clips on the exposed side of my fridge. It holds quite a lot & is handy. A pocketed mesh "closet" storage bag hangs over a long window like a curtain & is stuffed to the gills with this & that. The back of the stairway door has one too. I browsed Pinterest for weeks to get storage ideas. I've got regular stand up bookshelves in every suitable place, including the entryway. It doesn't look or feel cluttered. I live amidst them now all on one floor. It fits around my household stuff. It works. Oh, almost forgot. Art & beading supplies are in a large carry-all under a table when in use & shoved in the closet when not. Cats, y'know will steal anything not bolted down. I dunno if that sparks any useful ideas.

That unused bathroom of yours could make a "lab"...Add a hot plate or hot pot to heat water &'brew pots of tea & potions.
