I *heart* Martha Stewart Living

This weekend I did something that I've been meaning to do since we moved -- I got my Martha Stewart Living Magazines out of the attic and organized them.  Of course I had several years worth of magazines collecting around the house to add to them -- so what you are seeing above is nearly all my MSL magazines.  (I actually already found more since I took the photo -- they are hidden everywhere!)

Now, what I did was organize them by month instead of putting them in chronological order.  This way I can grab all of the January magazines in January and look through them.  (I love to do this!  I forget all the goodness in some of the old issues.)  I thought I would be able to put all the magazines for one month in one magazine holder, but I already have too many to do that, so I'm in the midst of figuring out how best to store them. 

Just another day in a magazine addicts life.  (More on my magazine obsession can be found here.)

Meanwhile, our older cat, Mud, reclines warily at a safe distance, unsure what to make of all of this.

Hmmm, I think my dad's Car&Driver collection just might rival that, it would be close!

omg! i need to show your magazine stash/obsession to my husband - then he won't make that disgusted noise when he sees all my magazines....

I LOVE your idea of storing your mags by month! Brilliant! I suppose kind of obvious, but I've never thought of doing that... my talents do not lay in the field of organization! lol

Fellow addict here. Once I discovered how cheap subscriptions are on Ebay, there's no holding me back. But the only ones I save are the knitting magazines. Everything else gets passed on...to my mother, my kids, friends, whoever. There would be no room for me if I kept them. Good luck with your collection. :)
