Need to find accessible, usable storage solution.
Reflecting on your answer to the first question, describe how the cluttered state of stuff related to this activity negatively impacts your ability to carry out or enjoy the activity.The paper craft materials are in haphazard piles which are not currently attractive compared to the rest of my recently decluttered dining/living room.
