I consider this year's Geek Cave weekend to be a resounding success. The room feels much lighter and cleaner now.
The shelving under the big table has been a bit of a catch all and holding area for quite some time. Much of what was in this space two weeks ago was 25th and 35th anniversary ponies, bits and pieces from playsets, accessory storage, and items that had just piled up over time and through other reorganizations. It felt great to finally address this area.
The Strawberry Shortcake playsets have been relocated to this area, and are now under the Berry Happy Home. The other half of this storage area is continuing to hold accessories and playset pieces that aren't on display, but in a much more organized fashion.
The area where the SSC playsets were living has been converted to G2 space, partly to make more room for more G2 playsets, partly to free up another shelf for G1s.
I've moved the Sea Ponies over to two new shelves so they have more display space and there's room for more additions. The Birthflower Ponies have moved up a level as well.
The Sweetheart Sisters have moved over to the old Seapony shelf, where there's plenty of room for new additions, as well.
On the other side of the shelves under the big table, a lot of the miniatures, EQG, and some merchandise have been packed up and moved to the basement. The space that's been freed up can now hold the unopened G4s until I get around to opening the packages.
This has also freed up the path to the closet, and the access to the whole G4 display space. It's not perfect, but it's an improvement.
I also spent a lot of the weekend taking photos of various merchandise pieces before packing them down to the basement. I always look forward to these moments of organizing my collection. It's a great way to enjoy my collection without adding to it and I love spending some time focused on specific items or areas of the Cave. I hope you've enjoyed this little mini tour as well.
